Nintendo’s first US commercial might be this 1980 ad

Got a broken arm? Just play Toss-Up! | Screenshot: YouTube Nintendo is a gaming juggernaut today, but it wasn’t really on anyone’s radar in the United States in 1980. And what was possibly the first US commercial for hardware produced by the company — a handheld called Toss-Up, from its “Game & Watch” series — certainly didn’t help, as a newly-restored copy shows. That’s because there’s no mention of Nintendo at all, or even Game & Wa

The iPad should fold in half

This should fold in half. It just should. | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Folding an iPad in half is a very bad idea if you want to keep using your iPad. But hear me out: it should fold in half. Why? Because it would make an absolute banger of a folding phone.

Apple announced RCS with a whimper when it should have been a bang

Illustration by Cath Virginia / The Verge Apple will finally adopt RCS in iOS 18, effectively ending a yearslong fight for feature parity between iMessage and Android. But the announcement wasn’t a celebration — you could’ve blinked and missed it. Instead of showing how RCS will make things better, Apple softly announced support for the standard and focused on all the great features coming to iMessage users — not RCS ones.

NASA rover drives through ancient Mars river, snaps stunning view

Long ago, a vigorous river filled an expansive Martian lake. Now, a NASA robot has rumbled through this ghost of Mars' water-rich past.In early June, the space agency's Perseverance rover drove across the Neretva Vallis river channel, now a wide, dried-up waterway. The Mars robot, en route to examine new areas of interest, looked up the channel and captured a rich Martian desert vista, home to the once swiftly moving water. Neretva Vallis once fed water into Mars' Jezero Crater, a region harbori

'I Saw the TV Glow' review: Queer horror has a new arthouse masterpiece

The mysterious allure of stumbling upon some unknown oddity on late-night cable is recreated (and repurposed, to devastating effect) in Jane Schoenbrun's wildly abstract, masterfully accomplished I Saw the TV Glow. The A24 production is a remarkable follow-up and spiritual companion to Schoenbrun's Sundance emo-horror breakout We're All Going to the World's Fair, a hazy, low-budget indie from 2022 told through late-night vlogs and video chats. The latter was their narrative feature debut, and it

He just wants to hang out, and he doesn't eat on a schedule.But just because he doesn't eat on a strict schedule doesn't mean I don't want to see him all the time and keep him we
