Nomad’s latest-generation ChargeKey is a super handy keychain charging and data transfer tool. I wasn’t sure if I was very going to put it good use before it landed in my daily carry when it first launched, but it definitely has, and now the brand has debuted an all-new silver model. 

The Switch 2 leaks aren’t done just yet (and probably never will be) and Diablo VI for Switch 2 is up next. It’s not the Ocarina of Time release date, but we have it on good authority the long-awaited Diablo IV Switch 2 release is all but imminent and now more than likely just over a month away. 

The new Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass expansion and the new FREE content update for folks who already own the game are going live today. The previously announced content updates for the Pokémon experience are finally ready for prime time alongside this morning’s Switch 2 console discounts ahead of the upcoming price hike. 

It is Nintendo Direct day folks. While it’s not the big September showcase or the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time remake blowout we are all waiting, this morning Nintendo is set to go live with dedicated 20-minute broadcast on next month’s big Switch 2 release. 

Two of the biggest launches in recent memory might very well be landing in the same month this year – GTA VI and The end of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. Grand Theft Auto VI will land on November 19, this we know for sure, but it looks like there now might be good reason to believe Nintendo could go toe-to-toe with the Rockstar behemoth. 

Sony has now officially unveiled the new Olive Gray edition of its WH-1000XM6 ANC headphones with a launch deal (also available at Best Buy, but there is no deal there). The brand has been dishing up a series of new colorways for its best headphones since release in mid 2025, but it’s not done quite yet. 

Nintendo just officially announced the next Nintendo Direct. Don’t get too excited – it’s not the Ocarina of Time show you’re likely waiting on, but Fire Emblem fans are in for a dedicated show this week to get a better look at Fortune’s Weave ahead of release in mid September. 

Best Buy has now updated and launched a new August Back To School Sale event. Alongside the usual Deals of the Day offers, Best Buy has now updated its main sale page with a series of new offers on everything from laptops and Apple gear to smart TVs, dorm-ready coolers and fridges, Galaxy tablets, and more. 

While it has been slow going as of late, Nintendo is finally updating the Switch 2 Nintendo Classics GameCube library again with a new Mario game, and we are going to take an updated look at the lineup for summer 2026. 

Grand Theft Auto VI is coming, and quickly at that. Now less than 4 months away from your console, we are yet to see any gameplay for what might be the most anticipated game release in history, and the internet is anxiously waiting. It’s been over a year since we got a proper trailer, never mind gameplay, but, according to an insider with a very good track record, that will likely soon change, and it could be as soon as next week. 

PlayStation has officially announced that it will stop producing physical games discs, and some folks are not happy about it. And while this move isn’t expected to happen for over a year from now, almost all physical games on the official PlayStation Store are already out of stock. 

Earlier this year during CES 2026, Twelve South debut its new leather Valet tray with onboard wireless charging action. Today, however, it is launching an all-new compact model at a lower price point. The new Twelve South Valet is now available for purchase in three colorways. 

Much like we are seeing at Amazon, Best Buy has now transitioned from its Black Friday in July sale to a new back to school event. While the new sale event is not quite as wide-ranging as last week’s, it is carrying over a number of the best deals we saw live for the summer Black Friday event while a number of new offers are landing today. 

Switch 2 gamers everywhere are soon to the field of Hyrule as Nintendo ramps up for the launch of what is widely expected to be its biggest holiday launch – The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. Rumors and leaks have been flying since well before Nintendo made the remake official, and that special edition Zelda Switch 2 console is surfacing again, but it might not be the Ocarina of Time model. 

While all of the latest PlayStation news has been surrounding Sony’s insistence on ridding its gaming ecosystem of disc-based gaming, despite waves of backlash, one title you will be able to score on disc is the new Marvel’s Wolverine game set for release later this year. And Sony just dropped a new “Story Trailer” to give us some insight into the narrative for Logan’s upcoming adventure. 

Following an official teaser back in the spring, the first new Donkey Kong LEGO set surfaced in leaks across the web earlier this month, and now it is official. The new LEGO Donkey Kong Arcade is now available for pre-order ahead of release on August 1.
