Pokemon TCG Pocket's Pack Points System Needs an Overhaul Yesterday

Pokemon TCG Pocket is more than a mobile game: It's a money-making machine. The virtual trading card app raked in more than $900 million in its first six months, eclipsing even Pokemon Go's revenue in the same post-release time span. As it turns out, fake Pokemon cards are just as much of a hot commodity as the real thing. People love ripping open card packs, hunting down ones with their favorite illustrations of fan-favorite Pokemon. It feels great to beat the odds by pulling an elaborately-in

Dev says Switch 2’s physical Game Cards were too slow for Star Wars Outlaws port

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-13 03:56:08

A video shows how different storage media can affect Mario Kart World load times. CD Projekt Red VP of Technology Charles Tremblay has alluded to this same challenge when talking about the Switch 2 port of Cyberpunk 2077. In a June interview with IGN, Tremblay said the data transfer speeds enabled by MicroSD Express were "great," while streaming data from a Switch 2 Game Card was merely "okay." Tremblay did go on to say that "all the performance we have on [input/output] is very good on [the Sw

Spacing Over Cards

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-22 20:49:11

This post is a rationalisation of “I don’t like cards”. I say that in most cases where cards are used, they don’t need to be used. Specifically, they take space, they let you skip gestalt principles and be lazy and undisciplined, and being so easy to implement they are often used by developers. To multiply the effect, you can put a card into a card, and it seems so hard not to do so. We recognise patterns. This is known for quite some time, specifically Wertheimer in 1923 wrote the paper that e

Less than a month out from Magic: The Gathering’s Spider-Man set, Wizards of the Coast has given it a full unveiling with reveals of more cards and gameplay mechanics for its crossover with Marvel’s webhead and friends. Wizards previously revealed a selection of cards at San Diego Comic-Con back in July.

Earlier this year, Nintendo helped popularize the microSD Express standard by requiring it for the new Switch 2 console. Created in 2019, the specification had languished in relative obscurity for years because the cheap, plentiful non-Express microSD cards were generally fast enough for the things that people were using them for, and because most hardware didn't support microSD Express cards in the first place.

If you've been hunting for a new GPU, you already know that getting one for its suggested retail price isn't guaranteed. High demand, low supply, and a constantly shifting economic space have caused the new 50 Series graphics cards to hit the market well above the expected price, at least at launch. Thankfully, the situation seems to be stabilizing a bit, as indicated by this deal on PNY's overclocked example of the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, which is available on Amazon for its MSRP of $750. Even be
