Hey, fellow gamers!

Brace yourselves for a wild ride through today's biggest gaming news!

This week in slow news, we're discussing:

🏴‍☠️ Recently freed Nintendo hacker Gary Bowser disavowed any link to the 'Infinity' modchip enabling Switch piracy despite speculation. Nintendo's legal crackdown efforts continue targeting the sensitive hacker community.

⚙️ A new 'open metaverse' platform combining virtual worlds with NFTs and blockchain was announced, evoking eye-rolls with its Ready Player One-esque consolidation vision. We discuss the promises and obstacles of ambitious interoperability.

🎮 In classic Kojima grandiosity, he compared his new game OD's uniqueness to Boktai - his bizarre solar-powered Game Boy Advance title. We analyze another pretentious flex positioning OD as the next metal gear.
