Kicking off the decade in style, Pac-Man (and all of its subsequent editions like Ms Pac-Man) arrived in 1980 and has gone on to become one of the most iconic games ever. It started in arcades but later jumped to consoles of all varieties. It was so popular that the song ‘Pac-Man Fever’ charted in the US in 1982. Photo: Yvonne Hemsey/Getty Images

What time the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct will start and end

Virtual Game Cards were introduced during Nintendo Direct 2025. The new feature will allow users to easily manage purchased digital games, playing games on two different systems and even loaning and borrowing games. Much like the physical cards, players will be able to “eject” digital titles from one console to another. It is set to launch in late April with a system update, and Nintendo have confirmed this feature will work with Nintendo Switch 2 systems from launch.
