If you’re into clickers the new PS4 universal media remote is now available for $30, but note that it still has a little ways to go....

Steam Next Fest is one of my favorite gaming events of the year, and for good reason. For a week straight, gamers get to try out free demos for upcoming games. These events are an opportune time for indie developers to show off what they’ve been working on. And I’ve found what could be my next favorite as a fan of retro platformers.

The only villain in Animal Crossing is your indifference This week’sNintendo Directwas something of a whopper, opening with a bang inLuigi’s Mansion 3and ending the exact same way when it was revealedAnimal Crossingis in development for Switch. I likeAnimal Crossing, I’ve purchased every game in the series, but my fandom for the franchise has waned over the past few years. I very much stanned the GameCube original to anybody who’d listen to me back in the day, but now, when a new entry comes out, I can easily telegraph how it’ll go: I’ll play solidly for two weeks, then slowly taper off as other games call my attention....
