Lots of video games get adaptations; movies, books, TV shows, etc. Unfortunately, very few of those adaptations are good. Just look at the past examples of old Mortal Kombat movies, or Street Fighter. Even video game adaptations that are comparatively good, like Warcraft, are objectively still lackluster.

Defiant Development, the developer of the deck-building action adventure series Hand of Fate, has stated that it is “ceasing development of new titles.” Apparently, their approach to video game development throughout the nine years of their existence hasn’t adapted well to the ever changing video game industry.

With the video game streaming arena slowly growing into its own, many people have been throwing around the term ‘Netflix of Videogames,’ like some sort of moniker of triumphant success. After all, Netflix has become wildly successful since its inception, mostly by providing a huge array of streaming content for its viewers. With the likes of Google Stadia cropping up, many people have been wondering if these newfangled videogame streaming services will become the Netflix of their field.

Netflix is adding another unique show to its repertoire; an animated TV series based on the critically acclaimed side-scrolling game Cuphead. Said game was based on the cartoon style of the thirties. Online provider Netflix has stated that the program will be called “The Cuphead Show” on Tuesday. The show, like the game, will feature titular character Cuphead and his brother Mugman. They’ve made a deal with the devil and have to do his bidding.

It’s been a year since Sony has held a PS4 conference, but they finally announced that they were going to have one this summer. This will be the first PlayStation conference since E3 2018. This isn’t to say we haven’t gotten any news in all of that time, as Sony simply shied away from large reveals at conferences and simply provided news through other means, such as their State of Play broadcasts, and the exclusive Wired interview that Mark Cerny used to reveal the PS5.

The Nintendo Switch Lite, announced Wednesday, July 10, will start at a cool $199.99 compared to its predecessor’s $299.99 price tag. In a new video, Nintendo General Producer of the Switch Yoshiaki Koizumi said players the world over are already enjoying Nintendo Switch and its growing catalog of games.

One Punch Man enthralled anime fans the world over when it debuted a few years back. With excellent animation, witty and clever subversion of the superhero genre, a cast of unique and unforgettable characters, and a detailed universe, it’s no wonder this webcomic turned manga turned anime ended up being so massively popular.

Anyone up to date with popular gaming has probably already heard that Cyberpunk 2077, a much anticipated game from The Witcher series developer CD Projekt Red, has been delayed into 2020.

While it was reasonably expected that the next gen consoles, PS5 and Project Scarlett, would be quite expensive for the average consumer, it seems the price of these future consoles could be even worse than we feared, though for reasons beyond Microsoft or Sony’s control.

The highly successful Nintendo Switch system may be getting a less expensive counterpart as hinted by NintendoLife, yet the rumors have not been officially verified by Nintendo. The system, which has posted $958 million in profits, bolstered Nintendo’s overall profits by 500 percent.
