Reviewing a Console Is Now Illegal? This week on The Nerf Report, we've got a wild lineup of stories from across the gaming world — and it all starts with a YouTuber facing potential jail time just for reviewing gaming handhelds.That's right: Once Were Nerd, a content creator who tests third-party handheld consoles, is now in legal hot water over claims that his reviews promote piracy. Is this the end of reviewing gray-market gaming gear? Or just another overreach?But that's not all — because the news just keeps getting weirder:

Join TJ and Trevor as they dive headfirst into the pixelated world of cryptid video games—uncovering Wendigo cameos, big boss battles, and some truly cursed game mechanics.

In one of the more jam-packed weeks of news in recent memory, between PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo, there is a lot for Sean and Marc to get through in this episode of Video Games 2 the MAX. This includes Sony reportedly being interested in acquiring not only HBO Max and the major Warner Bros IP, such as DC, Harry Potter, but also the gaming assets like Mortal Kombat, the Batman games, and much more. Could this finally give Sony its chance to have an even greater influence in so many industries, and does it really make sense for this to happen? Microsoft also made a major announcement that they've once again partnered with AMD to not only continue the current line of things, but also to make future consoles, handhelds, cloud devices, and more. Does this mean we could once again get future consoles? And what does this mean for the idea of a platform-agnostic future? Does this include Xbox backwards compatibility? Plus, Sean has thoughts on Sloclap's Soccer Multiplayer game, Rematch. Nintendo puts out big news concerning Donkey Kong Bananza, but also gets weird news regarding third-party games, Mindseye studio already set to have layoffs, SEGA announces sales of its games accidentally and more!You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/dHs5F-j6wbY
Week of: 6-16-2025 Xbox Gaming News, Releases, and A Fun Fact
The green team is sticking with making hardware. Consoles, handhelds, maybe even more. They're in! In a push to put their games in more places than ever alongside a massive decline in Series console sales, the understanding was Xbox has no place in the hardware business and may as well bow out. With today's news, it appears to be quite the opposite. Alongside this news presented by Xbox President, Sarah Bond, we also learned there will be more storefronts and games will continue to go everywhere. The moves made by Xbox have even extracted comments out of PlayStation execs during a fireside chat about their financials. As they continue to turn heads, we'll do our best to unpack how this even makes sense for Xbox.
