More worst Shiny Pokemon

A few months back, we covered some of the worst Shiny Pokemon of all time. Most of the time, they’re considered poor because they’re barely different from the original. But we only listed about 20 Shiny Pokemon there, and today we’ve got a fresh batch of even more horrible Shiny Pokemon. This is a subjective list, of course, but we’ll try to keep it as objective as possible – especially in cases where the Shiny form looks almost identical to the original.

Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered update

Aspyr just dropped the first update for Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered.

The patch brings along a bunch of new elements and improvements. These include unlockable outfits that can be used in Photo Mode, upgrades for Photo Mode itself, new graphics settings, improved controls and visuals, and more.

Below is the full rundown:

Nintendo Switch 2 US pre-orders price

Nintendo just provided the latest information about Switch 2 pre-orders for the United States. The console will be available to reserve starting on April 24, 2025.

Nintendo was originally planning on starting Switch 2 pre-orders stateside last Wednesday. However, that decision was reversed following news regarding tariffs. 

Also confirmed is that the console’s price will not be changing – that means you can grab the system for $450 or the Mario Kart World bundle for $500. Game prices will be “unchanged at launch” as well, though “accessories will experience price adjustments”.

Mario Kart World Direct live stream

The Mario Kart World Direct is almost here, and for those looking to tune in, we’ve got a dedicated post for the live stream. Look for the broadcast to kick off at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET / 2 PM in the UK / 3 PM in Europe. The event will be about 15 minutes long.

We were given a pretty good look at the game during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct and Treehouse: Live just a couple of weeks ago, but Nintendo clearly has more to say. If there’s anything significant, we’ll pass it along on the main site. Nintendo should also provide us with an official recap announcement after the event which we’ll share as well.

Dokapon Sword of Fury

Out of nowhere, Dokapon: Sword of Fury has just launched on Nintendo Switch in the west.

The remaster of the PlayStation game first came to Japan last August. There’s been no word on an English release, so today’s news certainly comes as a surprise. The title originally released in 1998.

The store page provides the following details:

Ninja Gaiden Ragebound Kumori

Kumori will be fully playable in Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, it’s been announced. She’ll be present right alongside Kenji Mozu, who was shown as part of the initial reveal a few months ago.

Kumori is a member of the antagonistic Black Spider Clan, which is central to the series. Her fighting style forgoes traditional rules to emerge victorious from battle by any means necessary. Kumori uses modern weaponry and demonic sources of power to reach her goals and brave challenges unique to her story.
