The overwhelming talking point this week surrounding the Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-order announcements - and details of the game's price and varying versions - has undeniably been the game box and what's inside it. Or rather, what's not inside it. Because the GTA 6 physical edition doesn't actually come with a disc, only a download code.

The biggie for me was always the one with the Sabre Turbo. Poised at a crossroads, black with an impossible shine, like an oil slick on tarmac, reflections iridescent. A fool in a red sports car in front, the city surrounding, mountains in the distance. A car coiled up at that intersection like the whole potential of that game's world was spring-loaded within it, waiting at the ready.

There's a timeline somewhere where a Destiny dating sim could have been released. That's according to two former Bungie staff who recalled pitching such an idea internally at the company. Former community manager Liana Ruppert was first to share the anecdote. "Fun fact, the team actually made one," said Ruppert on X when asked about a Destiny dating sim, "but leadership [gave a] very 'Hard No' that nobody wanted romance or silliness.

I recently finished reading Keza MacDonald's excellent Super Nintendo, a largely celebratory book about the company that "helped the world have fun", which nevertheless sounds a note of understandable caution at its conclusion. The author is concerned – and it's a concern I share – that Nintendo has been playing things too safe of late, that its release slate (with the odd exception) has become alarmingly conservative. It's time, surely, for the nextSplatoon, and by that I don't mean Raiders. As hardware goes, Switch 2 is no big swing, and so far its software has generally followed suit; Super Nintendo rightly laments the loss of the "freewheeling creativity" of the Iwata era in particular. "Nintendo knows well the power of nostalgia," MacDonald writes. "But unless it continues to create new ideas alongside honouring its legacy, Nintendo won't be able to keep its cherished position in popular culture."
