This morning’s BBC Breakfast segment on retro gaming took an unexpected turn when an NES cartridge was mistakenly showcased inside a Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). This blunder not only sparked disbelief among viewers but also highlighted the importance of accuracy in tech presentations, especially when celebrating the rich history of gaming. The segment, featuring a variety of classic consoles, was meant to honor the resurgence of retro gaming, yet it became a source of ridicule across social media platforms.

In an unexpected turn of events, the PS5 has welcomed the surprise release of the 2021 Nintendo Switch exclusive game, Worlds End Club. This action-adventure puzzle game, developed by Too Kyo Games and directed by Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka, is now available on the PS Store for $24.99. However, its worth noting that there is no PS4 version available, which raises questions about the game’s accessibility for a broader audience.

In an intriguing move, indie horror game Haus Of Irndrous is currently available for free on Steam, but this won’t last long. Developed by Yxtopia Studios, this atmospheric horror title will transition to a paid model starting July 19, 2025. Players have until this date to claim the game at no cost, making it a unique opportunity for horror enthusiasts and gamers alike. Originally launched in early access in August 2024, Haus Of Irndrous was designed to be episodic, with its first chapter intended to remain free while subsequent episodes would be sold as downloadable content.
