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

We're halfway through the week - let's tackle the latest gaming news:

🕹️ Atari announced plans to acquire studio Digital Eclipse, famous for their work preserving classic games. We discuss why the deal could greatly benefit Digital Eclipse with more resources while boosting Atari's retro library offerings. But some worry Atari's rocky track record could lead to mismanagement.

🖥️ Capcom is facing criticism after claiming PC game mods are "no different" than cheating. Modders call this stance anti-consumer and out-of-touch. We analyze the heated debate around mods as transformative works that extend fun versus unfair advantages. There are nuances Capcom ignores.

📺 Twitch surprised users by announcing the shutdown of their Nintendo Switch streaming app in 2024. The move highlights Twitch's refocusing on core platforms. We discuss the implications for the Switch's viability as a streaming device long-term.
