iam8bit, Video Game History Foundation, and Mega Cat Studios team up to bring back lost NES game Xcavator

As a gamer, it’s seriously cool to hear about stuff like this! Frank Cifaldi from the Video Game History Foundation explained that the very first Xcavator prototype is a rare look into what it was like for a small, independent developer trying to get a game onto consoles back in the 8-bit days. Apparently, the game was way ahead of its time in 1991, and nobody really got it then. But thankfully, the developer, Oberth, saved his work, and his family made sure it ended up with people who could preserve it. Now, in 2026, we’re finally going to get to play it! It’s a really important piece of gaming history, and it’s awesome that everyone involved is helping to share it with the world.

Skyrim’s Nintendo Switch 2 Port Faces Backlash From Fans

The Anniversary Edition aimed to improve the game with better graphics and quicker loading. It also added support for mouse and motion controls using the Joy-Con, and included all previously released downloadable content. However, many players have reported that the update actually makes the game feel slow and clunky. Delayed reactions make fighting difficult, and the game still runs at a limited 30 frames per second, resulting in stiff and unnatural movements. Frequent crashes disrupt gameplay, often at inconvenient times. Adding to these issues, the game requires a massive 53 gigabytes of storage space, which is a significant download size, especially for those playing on the go.
