Pokémon Pokopia Players Are 'Shiny Hunting' for Rare Variants of Certain Items

Image
There are no shiny Pokémon in Pokopia . That's either a shame or a relief, depending on your attitude toward shiny hunting. Only one of each unique Pokémon exists in the game, and it will never be shiny, so you do not have to agonizingly reset your game again and again in hopes of a slightly off-color Bulbasaur. However, because Pokémon players are sadists or something, they've managed to find another rare "variant" to hunt down. This time, it's furniture. Pokopia players have discovered that some items in the game seem to have rare "variant" versions that appear on occasion when you set them down. For example, the Chansey Plant item is a big ol' topiary that looks just like a Chansey. But sometimes, when you set it out, its face will be a Ditto face instead of a Chansey. Please enjoy: Every time you set down an item that has a variant appearance, it seems to have a random, low-ish chance of appearing with its different form. You can try and spa...

Super Meat Boy 3D Review

Image
The original Super Meat Boy was built all around speed and precision; regularly demanding players make unbelievable jumps at high velocity, land on a box the size of Meat Boy himself, jump again while maintaining momentum, all while avoiding saw blades, insta-death salt waterfalls, and all forms of other hazards along the way. That’s hard enough to do in 2D, so the idea of requiring that level of precision while also contending with a Z-Axis made the thought of a 3D Super Meat Boy seem like an unsolvable puzzle. I’ll say straight up that even though the attempt is respectable, Super Meat Boy 3D does not completely solve this problem. Far too many of my deaths came from frustratingly jumping straight towards a wall or platform, only to find out that I was actually slightly behind or slightly in front of it, causing poor Meat Boy to jump towards nothing and turn into super meat paste. Fortunately, levels are so short and respawns are so quick that deaths are just a slight inconvenienc...

Deus Ex and Tomb Raider developer Eidos-Montréal has announced a wave of layoffs alongside the departure of head of studio David Anfossi.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A Is Discounted in Target's Switch 2 Sale, But There's a Catch

Image
Target is offering a rare 'Buy 2, Save $30' sale on popular new Switch games. The promotion is running from now until April 4 and includes quite a few first-party Switch 2 games like Donkey Kong Bananza, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and my personal top pick: Pokémon Legends: Z-A. To get the discount, you just need to add two eligible items to your cart and be a Target Circle member (which is free). Pokémon Legends: Z-A came out in October of 2025 and was a day one purchase for me. I've been a fan of Pokémon games since back in the Game Boy days and have played every mainline entry so far. Legends: Z-A was my favorite new Pokémon game in the Switch generation when it first came out, though admittedly it's been overshadowed by Pokémon Pokopia for me this year. Unfortunately, that game is not included in Target's sale. Pokémon Legends: Z-A - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Sale Both the Switch 2 and Switch 1 versions of the game are included in this sale, with the latt...
