“We’ve now filed a lawsuit against Krafton,” says Unknown Worlds co-founder (and Subnautica director) Charlie Cleveland. He says fans “deserve the full story” and “the idea that Max, Ted and I wanted to keep it all for ourselves is totally untrue.”

When I went hunting for working third-party Nintendo Switch 2 docks, I didn’t expect to find a gadget like this!

That is the unanswered question in Jason Schreier’s latest for Bloomberg, which reveals the existence of a $250 million bonus if the game met sales targets this year — and that the ousted bosses of developer Unknown Worlds were planning to share it with staff. New studio head Steve Papoutsis told employees he was unaware of the bonus, and that Krafton had simply decided the game wasn’t ready to ship.

We have the early answer, thanks to Digital Foundry and Cary “The Phawx” Golomb, and... it’s so nuanced and intriguing I recommend you watch both videos yourself! But TL;DR:

Not saying I’d buy, as my fav feature went MIA, but I’d love it as a gift! The $129 Genki Moonbase has three mesmerizing AC outlets (US, EU, UK or AU) and four USB-C charge ports. Those top out at 140W, 100W, 30W and 30W, but you don’t lose too many watts with four gadgets plugged. My only disappointment is the light-up Moonlink cables no longer help you find ports in the dark. Genki says it removed that promise early on.

While reporting out how the Nintendo Switch 2 breaks compatibility with third-party docks, I didn’t get enough from my USB sniffer to tell if there’s truly a special new encryption/authentication chip aboard the official one. But our friends at iFixit were kind enough to send over these incredibly clean, high-res photos of the dock’s circuitry. I don’t know what I’m looking for, but perhaps you might?
