Comparatively speaking, Nintendo Switch Online as a console online service is far more of a value compared to PlayStation and Xbox. The lack of certain content and features is certainly the drawback in comparison, but the potential in expanding the free game offering has always been the subject of speculation by fans. With the lack of Virtual Console on the Nintendo Switch compared to previous Nintendo consoles, fans have been wondering what new console libraries could be added to Nintendo Switch Online....

Nintendo Switch Sports has a nice roster of sports prepared to offer fans, blending old and new games together. Classics like Tennis and Bowling will appear, while new sports like Volleyball will finally join the franchise. Nintendo Switch Sports also plans to add Golf in a fall update. The timing of that update is notable; it looks like Nintendo might intend to update and expand Nintendo Switch Sports over a long period of time, rather than trying to quickly release bonus content in the months immediately after the game’s release....

It was only about a week ago that it was revealed that Nintendo would be pushing the online features of the Wii U by releasing all of their IP titles on a digital download service, allowing players the option to buy in store or download games directly onto their consoles the day of release.

However, for minor sports like basketball in India, sometimes, sports events themselves can cause more harm than good. It is a known fact that in our country, cricket is the one sport that is considered ‘King’, and while in principle, cricket is never to blame for the lack of popularity of other sports, at times, such a case can be made....

The fact that he has won more titles on hardcourts this year, one of which is an ATP Masters 1000, is evidence of his comfort level on the surface. All of this culminated in an absolutely dazzling start for the Austrian at the season finale. Nobody envisaged him beating both Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic, who share 11 ATP Finals titles between them. Thiem managed to prevail over the Swiss 7-5, 7-5, but it was always going to be the 16-time Grand Slam champion Djokovic who presented him with the sternest test....

After five-champion champion Novak Djokovic kickstarted the 50th edition of the ATP Finals with a comprehensive straight-set dismantling of Berrettini, six-time champion Federer failed to beat Thiem for the third time in as many meetings this year, to fall to third in the early group standings. On the second day of round-robin action in the group, Federer squares up against Berrettini while Djokovic takes on Thiem. Both pairs have met in Grand Slams this year, Federer beat Berrettini in straight sets in the Wimbledon fourth-round and Thiem beat Djokovic in a five-set semi-final at Roland Garros....

In case you didn’t know… The Guerillas of Destiny first made their debut in 2016 when Tama Tonga introduced his brother Tanga Loa as the newest member of The Bullet Club, and also as his new tag team partner, following the departure of the BC’s mainstay tag team Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows.

And there’s more to come. Arthur Andersen, Enron’s outside accountants, may soon be back in the news, with top executives at headquarters in Chicago trying to offload blame for document-shredding onto the Houston office, where Enron’s audits were carried out. NEWSWEEK has learned that Andersen’s internal investigation has provisionally cleared the firm’s top managers of responsibility for the document-shredding disclosed a month ago. The shredding began after a lawyer in the head office sent her Houston colleagues a copy of Andersen’s document-retention policy....

No Man’s Sky has been one of the most astounding redemption stories in the history of games. Since the NEXT update, the title has completely flipped public opinion, even upgrading the game’s overall review status on Steam. Now, one player has gone even further to share their newfound admiration of the game, constructing a massive monument to Game Director Sean Murray that is visible from the planet’s atmosphere.
