Uploading an early version of my new Game History Secrets video as we speak...
Next Game History Secrets video is nearly ready. This is a very in-the-weeds deep dive on something to do with recent Nintendo history and I'm a little concerned that people will be confused by how much detail I'm going to. Ah well.

For now, all I'll say about this is that it proves what I've long since said about the original version of Metroid Prime 4 in that the developers didn't simply 'screw it up' as a lot of people seem to assume.
Nintendo is acquiring shares of Bandai Namco Studios Singapore Pte. Ltd. for the purpose of strengthening its development structure
BNSS will become a subsidiary of Nintendo and will continue its development operations under the new name Nintendo Studios Singapore Pte. Ltd.

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

I attended the protest outside of Rockstar North in Edinburgh this evening to stand in solidarity with the more than 30 workers across the UK, including a number of my constituents who have been sacked.
