The secondhand Switch 2 market is already a minefield of bricked consoles

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-06 13:38:20

Oliver Cragg / Android Authority TL;DR Reports of bricked secondhand Switch 2 consoles are already coming in. Nintendo has been banning consoles that use MiG Switch carts, with no recourse. This has major implications for the used Switch 2 market going forward. The Nintendo Switch 2 has only been out for a few weeks, but some lucky users have already found deals on secondhand consoles. One Reddit user reported finding such a deal, scoring a sweet $50 discount on the console, even though new

The Xbox Ally's Biggest Specs Upgrade Could Just Be Better Windows 11 for Handhelds

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-09 05:00:11

The same thing that makes Windows gaming handhelds desirable also holds them back. It's never been the hardware. The designs aren't perfect in a lot of the devices -- even the best of the lot, the Asus ROG Ally and ROG Ally X, which are the basis of the forthcoming ROG Xbox Ally -- but they're generally playable. The culprit has always been Windows. It simply isn't an operating system designed for a dedicated gaming handheld, and that needs to change. Of course, we'd all love the Xbox Ally to

Now it’s mounting a powerful second act, joined by a wave of AI open-source enthusiasts. This time around the stakes are higher, and we need to give it the support it never had. In 2024 the AI leader Hugging Face developed an open-source platform for AI robots, which already has 3,500+ robot data sets and draws thousands of participants from every continent to join giant hackathons. Raspberry Pi went public on the London Stock Exchange for $700 million. After a hiatus, Maker Faire came back; th

At Least One ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ Star Won’t Be Back for the Spinoff

With The Handmaid’s Tale wrapping up after six seasons, fans are now looking forward to sequel series The Testaments. It will have a new cast aside from Ann Dowd’s returning Aunt Lydia, but the creative forces behind both shows teased earlier this week that some other familiar faces could return. One that will not, however: Samira Wiley’s Moira. This comes from the actress herself, who admitted in a new interview that she’s quite ready to move on. “I wish I could tease and say ‘maybe,’ but that

I tested a Eufy robot vacuum with a built-in handheld vac - and it just dropped to 42% off

ZDNET's key takeaways The Eufy Clean E20 3-in-1 robot vacuum and handheld vacuum combination costs $650. The Eufy E20 performed very well in suction testing; it offers up to 8,000Pa of suction power and thorough edge cleaning; the robot vacuum's dustbin doubles as a handheld vacuum that includes a floor attachment and a crevice tool. Unfortunately, the handheld vacuum doesn't offer powerful suction like that of a standalone unit like a Dyson, and removing it from the robot isn't easy with one

Rivian will launch hands-off highway driver assist ‘in a few weeks’

Rivian said Thursday it plans to launch a hands-off version of its driver assistance system for highway driving “in a few weeks,” and an “eyes-off” version in 2026. The hands-off system will let Rivian compete with companies like Ford and General Motors, which have both launched similar systems in the past few years. (Ford has named its system BlueCruise, while GM has SuperCruise.) Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (supervised) system, which is not fully autonomous despite its name, requires users to k

The Lenovo Legion Go S (with Windows) makes so many mistakes I can’t figure out how we got here

Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows The Windows-powered Legion Go S isn't a total bust from Lenovo. The display is great, and so are the speakers. There are also some nice software features, including fully customizable buttons. However, there are so many confusing choices here that ruin the experience: the quad-core Ryzen Z2 Go chipset leaves much to be desired, the whole thing is too heavy, there's no "gotta have it" feature, and poor hardware decisions (like the tiniest trackpad on Earth) make it
