Mario Tennis Fever on Switch 2: Polished Tennis Chaos Comes with a Steep Price

Mario Tennis Fever for Nintendo Switch 2 refines core tennis gameplay with Fever Rackets and HP-based battles, offers a large roster and numerous unlockables, and emphasizes multiplayer and online play over a short adventure mode. While the adventure mode is brief, the game delivers solid content and a robust online experience, though a $69.99 price point may deter some buyers. Overall, it’s an improved, content-rich entry for fans of Mario sports games, especially those who value multiplayer chaos.

Omni Auto Scoring Brings Automated Precision to Home Darts

WIRED tests the Target Darts Omni Auto Scoring System, a four‑camera ring that clips onto most boards and wires to Wi‑Fi, pairing with the DartCounter app to deliver automatic scorekeeping, an announcer, comprehensive stats, and online multiplayer. It’s pricey (roughly $650–$1,000 with extras), requires strong Internet (Target suggests 30 Mbps) and a subscription for full features, and while highly accurate overall it can miscount or miss bounce-outs occasionally. Still, for serious darts fans it offers a compelling, convenient upgrade that enhances online play and practice, though connectivity and firmware quirks can crop up.

Xbox's Future: Affordable Gaming or Premium Experience?

Rumors suggest Xbox may eliminate online multiplayer fees with its next-gen console, potentially pressuring Sony to keep charging for PS6 multiplayer. While many players enjoy free online games on PC and some free-to-play titles, PS Plus offers additional benefits that may justify its cost. The decision could influence consumer preferences, but the impact depends on how Sony responds and the value of PS Plus perks.
