8BitDo Wireless Mechanical Keyboard and Joystick Bundle $70 (was $100) See at Best Buy Best Buy has a terrific deal on its exclusive 8BitDo Retro Wireless Keyboard bundle that drops the price to only $70 (was $100).

If you'd rather have an Xbox-inspired retro keyboard, 8BitDo is releasing an officially licensed transparent green keyboard and mouse on January 16. 8BitDo Wireless Mechanical Keyboard and Joystick Bundle $70 (was $100) The detachable joystick, dubbed the Super Stick, is typically exclusive to the Commodore 64-inspired model, but 8BitDo released an exclusive Best Buy bundle with an NES-themed joystick attachment. Strangely, this bundle retails for $100 normally, the same MSRP as the N Edition without the joystick. This could suggest that this value bundle will only be available for a limited time. Even at $100, you are getting a "deal," as the Commodore 64 model retails for $110.The C64 Edition is actually on sale at Amazon for $80 right now. This is the lowest price we've seen, but unless you have more fondness for the C64, Best Buy's N Edition bundle is clearly the better offer at $70. Meanwhile, the N Edition without the joystick is $90 at Amazon.All 8BitDo keyboards include detachable Super Buttons--the large red A and B buttons shown above. The Super Buttons are activated via microswitches, so they have a pleasant mouse-like feel to them. 8BitDo keyboards support wireless connections via 2.4GHz and Bluetooth as well as wired via USB-C.

For the better part of two decades, Dwarf Fortress has been the passion project of brothers Tarn and Zach Adams. Although the acclaimed fantasy simulation game has technically remained in development since its debut in 2006, Dwarf Fortress' Adventure Mode will launch out of beta on January 23. The announcement was sent out with the following video, and an update about the latest changes in the game. Dwarf Fortress allows players to control a clan of dwarves as they stake out their place in a procedurally generated fantasy world. Adventure Mode shakes up the formula by allowing players to step into a roguelike-style RPG and explore the worlds that were created during their time in the standard game. Adventure Mode also allows players to accept quests and look for lost treasures, among other activities.Tarn Adams and Kitfox's Alexandra Orlando have shared Dwarf Fortress' latest updates on its Steam page. Most of the changes were for Adventure Mode, including enhanced options for character creation, the addition of Adventure Mode's soundtrack to Fortress Mode, and even the option for child and baby portraits.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman's death led Marvel Studios to lay the character to rest instead of recasting. A new report claims Marvel Studios is reconsidering its decision, but one scooper claims this rumor is mistaken.

Monster Hunter Wilds is undoubtedly one of the most highly anticipated games of 2025, despite the year being immensely stacked with other big titles as well. While Monster Hunter Wilds is following Monster Hunter Rise, it's technically a successor to the 2018 hit that brought the franchise into the mainstream, Monster Hunter: World. Ultimately, Monster Hunter Wilds is an action RPG that builds upon the foundation established by Monster Hunter: World, with its seamless open world and lifelike ecosystems, alongside some new mechanics like the Seikret mount and a Focus mode designed to help players target their attacks more efficiently. However, despite in every way being an action RPG and in every way also being a Monster Hunter game, Monster Hunter Wilds has been tagged as a dating sim on Steam.
