Analogue announced a new collection of limited-edition colors for its modern remake of the Nintendo 64, while Hamster Corporation is offering downloadable versions of retro console games for direct individual purchase on the Switch 2, as the tech world continues to evolve. These announcements come as researchers from Stanford, Nvidia, and Together AI developed a new technique to optimize GPU kernels, and as consumers seek solutions for charging their Apple devices and upgrading their home entertainment systems.
Analogue unveiled five new transparent color options for its 4K N64, inspired by unreleased N64 prototypes, according to The Verge. The new colors are expected to be available soon. Meanwhile, Hamster Corporation is stepping in to offer downloadable retro console games on the Switch 2, filling a gap left by Nintendo's shift away from its Virtual Console, as reported by Ars Technica. The new Console Archives line will launch on the Switch 2 and PlayStation 5, offering individual purchases of classic games.
In other tech news, researchers have developed a new technique called Test-Time Training to Discover (TTT-Discover) that can optimize GPU kernels, according to VentureBeat. This technique allows models to continue training during the inference process, resulting in significant performance improvements. The researchers managed to optimize a critical GPU kernel to run twice as fast as previous state-of-the-art solutions written by human experts.
For consumers, the need for convenient charging solutions continues to drive innovation. Wired highlighted the best 3-in-1 wireless charging stations for Apple devices, allowing users to charge their iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods simultaneously. The article featured several options, including the Belkin 3-in-1 Qi2 Charging Stand and the Nomad Stand One Max.
Finally, the pursuit of superior picture quality continues in the home entertainment space. Wired also reviewed the best OLED TVs, noting that OLED technology provides the pinnacle of picture quality. The article highlighted models like the LG C4 OLED and the Samsung S90F QD-OLED TV, emphasizing the technology's ability to create images that "seem to appear from the void like magic."
