Target, Bethesda, and Soda Jones partner to create Nuka Cola Quantum

Bethesda is bringing one of its most iconic drinks from the Fallout series, Nuka Cola Quantum, into the real world, minus the radiation and AP points.

For Fallout 3 completionists, we don’t need to explain Nuka Cola Quantum. There is a whole mission in the game dedicated to finding 30 bottles of the bright-blue drink in the Capital Wasteland for Nuka Cola’s number one fan, Sierra Petrovita.

North American soft drink company Soda Jones will be making the Nuka Cola Quantum, which goes on sale exclusively in Target stores. Fallout 4 will also be available on that date, giving you the perfect excuse to buy it on day one and not feel like you’re making a bad decision.

Soda Jones offers a Berry Lemonade drink that has the same color as Nuka Cola Quantum. Even though it hasn’t been confirmed, we suspect it is a repackage, though like Carlsberg UK’s Fallout Beer, we expect it will be much more expensive.

With all of these promotions for Fallout 4, it is only a matter of time before Kellogg’s announces plans to stock Sugar Bombs as a cereal or OxiClean reveals plans to stock Abraxo Cleaner. Heck, it wouldn’t be too surprising to see a miniature Mister Handy robot drone, considering there is already a BB-8 miniature droid available.

Bethesda confirmed last week that Fallout 4 development has finished, and the studio is now working on final bug fixes before launch. A season pass is already available for $30, despite the lack of a release of information on how many DLC packages to expect.

What we do know is that Fallout 4 will be much bigger than Fallout 3 and New Vegas, will feature new crafting options for homes and weapons, and both PC and Xbox One buyers will receive mod support. Most of the trailers for the game seem to point to a more open and fun world compared to previous installments, which were devoid of a strong main story line.

The Nintendo Switch just got 2 surprise games — and they’re both worth grabbing
A teddy beat sits on an embroidery hoop in Stitch.

If you were unable to catch this week's Nintendo IndieWorld showcase, then you missed a surprisingly loaded show. Lorelei and the Laser Eyes got a May release date, WayForward showed off its Yars' Revenge revival, and Steamworld Heist 2 got an exciting reveal. In the midst of all those headlines, two smaller games were surprise released on the platform: Stitch and Sticky Business. Don't sleep on either of them, as they're both worth a purchase.

Both games are ports of previously released games, but both went a bit under the radar upon their original launch. Sticky Business modestly launched last summer on PC, whereas Stitch has actually been around since 2022 as an Apple Arcade exclusive. The latter even has an Apple Vision Pro version now that can be played in mixed reality. I can't blame anyone for missing either, but their Switch releases offer a good opportunity to catch up with some quiet hidden gems.

Is this Razer’s Steam Deck killer?
The Razer Kishi Ultra sitting on a table.

Razer has been oddly quiet in the burgeoning world of handheld gaming PCs. When I met up with the company at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) to learn about its new products, I was happy to hear it had an answer to the success of the Steam Deck.

But it was not the type of answer I was expecting.

The best iPhone emulators
A collage of the delta emulator.

The market for iPhone games has become so wide and diverse that it can realistically compete with most console and PC offerings. Where we once only got cheap time-wasters, we now have complete experiences that don't feel any less impressive than what the competition offers. In fact, a lot of games made for consoles are appearing on the iPhone now that it is becoming so powerful. However, older games have paradoxically been mostly absent from the app store. That all could be about to change as emulation is now allowed on iPhone, though with some caveats that any retro fan should know about before getting too excited to play all your favorite NES games on your phone. Here's what's up with iPhone emulators, as well as our picks for a few of the best ones you can get right now.
What you need to know about emulation on iPhone
Emulators on iPhone, as well as emulation in general, are in a strange legal gray zone. Previously, the only way to get an emulator on your iPhone was through some workarounds that generally involved jailbreaking your phone, That differs from Android, which has enjoyed native emulators for years. In 2024, Apple updated its App Store guidelines to allow for emulators on its store, but with some important restrictions.

Here's the exact wording: "Apps may offer certain software that is not embedded in the binary, specifically HTML5 mini apps and mini games, streaming games, chatbots, and plug-ins. Additionally, retro game console emulator apps can offer to download games. You are responsible for all such software offered in your app, including ensuring that such software complies with these guidelines and all applicable laws. Software that does not comply with one or more guidelines will lead to the rejection of your app. You must also ensure that the software adheres to the additional rules that follow in 4.7.1 and 4.7.5. These additional rules are important to preserve the experience that App Store customers expect, and to help ensure user safety."
