Should you’ve attempted to acquire a PlayStation 5 in autumn of 2020, you’d be well aware of the challenges involved in snagging a console at its initial release. Similarly, Nintendo enthusiasts are justifiably concerned about facing similar hurdles with their upcoming console; however, there appears to be some optimism. As per a recent rumor posted by user ninspider on Famiboards (via Gaming Leaks and Rumors), Nintendo is expected to have a significantly larger supply of consoles compared to the original Switch launch. If the information provided by ninspider holds true, Nintendo could potentially have close to 7 million consoles available during the launch period. This is nearly triple the number (2.74 million) of consoles they made accessible in March 2017.

Actor Daniel Craig, known for his role as James Bond, has signed on to work with director James Gunn in the upcoming DC Universe project. According to Deadline, Craig is set to collaborate once again with Luca Guadagnino for a Sgt. Rock film being produced by DC Studios and Peter Safran. Justin Kuritzkes is reportedly drafting the screenplay for Sgt. Rock. Notably, Guadagnino and Craig had previously worked together on this year’s romantic drama, Queer. The production of the Sgt. Rock feature will precede Guadagnino’s reboot of Lionsgate’s American Psycho. At this point, no contracts have been signed between DC Studios, Daniel Craig, or Luca Guadagnino, so we’ll have to wait and see if this collaboration materializes.
