Apple just has released an important software update to their catalog of personal handheld devices. The new operating system, iOS 9.3 adds a ton of new security updates to iPhone and iPad devices and a heavily requested new feature called Night Mode.

Do not perform this software update if you cannot remember your iTunes account information.  Some devices are requiring that information be reverified after the software update concludes.

It’s unclear how many Apple devices support iOS 9.3 but it’s a good bet if your hardware can run iOS 9, you can perform the update to iOS 9.3. If you previously had the most recent version of iOS 9 installed, the update’s download will likely range between 200-300MB.  It can be downloaded and installed through a WiFi connection or by connecting your device to a computer with a recent version of iTunes installed.

Nintendo 3DS owners across North America should fire up their WiFi connections and log into the Nintendo eShop right now as an exclusive demo for Bravely Second: End Layer has just been released.

Anyone who played the original Bravely Default game would remember that the demo for that title is legendary. It included exclusive missions with an exclusive story not found in the full version of the game, and you could unlock exclusive items and bonuses that could be brought to the full version of the game.  That tradition continues with its sequel.

The Bravely Second: End Layer Demo includes exclusive content, and by playing it you can unlock special items you can bring into the full retail version of the game.  The best part is, the demo is completely free and it can be downloaded right now.  It only takes up 2,200 Blocks of memory!

Bravely Second: End Layer is coming April 15th, 2016 exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS.

Happy Anniversary! March 10, 2016

I have been so busy preparing new site content this month I completely overlooked the fact that March 2016 marks the start of the sixth year this website has been operating!

We have been through a lot on this website.  We’ve broken gaming news, discussed the video game industry at length, and reached out to the gaming community, and right now we are in no plans to slow down as a lot more content is being planned for release later this month!  Who knows what the next year will bring?

Before we wrap this up, I’d like to thank several people here for their support through the past year.

Thanks to Princess Angel for her support and for the lovely banner and logo you see on the top of the page.

Thanks to the Unknown Cameraperson for their support behind the camera, and for their choice to remain this website’s ongoing urban legend.

Thanks to Gypsy Jenn for her encouragement and ideas!

Thanks to Bawls for their support!

Thanks to everyone who recommended a video or article, either here or on our official YouTube Channel!  You all know who you are!

Finally, thanks to all of you who read this website.  More exclusive content is on its way!
