DESCRIPTION ▼

Ladies and Gentlemen... it's finally time for the historic courtroom clash between Epic and Apple in this Big Week in Gaming for 9 May 2021! This week we cover the crazy circus that is the Epic v Apple case - from the opening statements through to the collateral damage felt by Nintendo, Microsoft and especially Sony.


We also chat about Nintendo's DIY tool Game Builder Garage, Sony partnering with Discord, Mass Effect Legendary Edition's full performance details, an in-depth analysis of Switch sales and Aussie developers getting a HUGE 30% tax break in the 2021 Federal Budget. ScoMo's wanting a piece of that global gaming pie, eh?


So grab your popcorn bigwiggers... and let's get ready for these rumbling highlights:

▸ Epic v Apple - the court case kicks off and brings us some crazy leaks

▸ Game Builder Garage is announced by Nintendo

▸ And 10 changes that could have made NieR Replicant even better
