Gosh, the passage of time is a nasty one, eh? There we are just trying to enjoy our day, when all of a sudden, BOOM, we’re reminded that today is the 15th anniversary of the 3DS.
Yes, the 3DS, that console which, in our minds, is still a relatively young whippersnapper, was released on this day (26th February) fifteen years ago in 2011.

Make sure you’ve redeemed those points.
Tomorrow (27th February) is Pokémon Day, and this year, that means a lot of different things are happening. We’ve got the annual Pokémon Presents to look forward to. Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen will go live on the Switch eShop. And it’s launch day for LEGO’s first wave of Pokémon sets.
It’s that last note that we wanted to remind you about today, because while we all lost our minds over the Pikachu, Eevee, and Kanto Starter sets on reveal earlier this year, we don’t want anyone to miss out on the bonus mini set, exclusive to LEGO Insiders members.

New update incoming.
Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition is now officially available on the Switch 2, and it seems Bethesda won’t be wasting any time when it comes to updates.
In a confirmation via social media, it has revealed it will bolster the post-apocalyptic experience with support for DLSS and by also providing “additional stability improvements”. This update will join the 60fps and 40fps modes, which are already in the game.

But why?
PlayStation’s Gran Turismo 7 has apparently been linked to the Switch 2 in a wild new rumour, but it doesn’t necessarily mean what you’re probably thinking.
This information comes from video game journalist Jeff Grubb, who recently responded to a fan on his show, asking a question about “the real driving simulator” and the possibility of it going to another platform.

Blood, blood, gallons of the stuff.
There’s a moment during Resident Evil Requiem — actually, no, several moments — in which I laid the controller on my lap and just stared at the screen in awe. Over the last decade, the series has reclaimed its throne as the king of the survival horror genre, but Requiem pushes the quality bar higher than ever, presenting an experience that is equal parts fresh and nostalgic. For long-time fans who cut their teeth on the original ‘Raccoon City’ trilogy, this is a love letter that celebrates RE’s origins; one that will have you grinning from ear to ear until the credits roll.
Requiem stars two playable protagonists: FBI agent and ‘scaredy-cat’ (Capcom’s words) Grace Ashcroft and series veteran Leon Kennedy, who’s still busy serving the Division of Security Operations. Together (well, mostly separately), they work to uncover a bunch of mysteries linked to the Umbrella Corporation, with newcomer and excellent antagonist Victor Gideon driving the narrative.

Bank Balance hurt itself in its confusion!
Last week, Amsterdam-based designer JimmyPaul took to London Fashion Week to showcase his new ‘ROAM’ collection, a high-fashion line inspired by the wonderful world of Pokémon. The runway looks inspired a ready-to-wear line of their own by Difuzed, and what do you know, this collaboration is now available to buy from the Pokémon Center website.
Let’s make one thing clear right from the jump, these items ain’t coming cheap. The collection covers a range of products from bags and caps to t-shirts and jackets, and while you’re looking at around £39.99 / $39.99 for the smaller items, the bags and jackets are closer to the £200 mark and beyond.
