Great news, everyone: you can now play GameCube games on your Nintendo Switch – but only with a considerable amount of hacking your console. The Switch can at last run GameCube games through an emulator hosted on a Linux distribution loaded onto the console. At any rate, that the Switch can actually run GameCube games at least is now a known fact. Regardless of how early the software is, it’s developments like this that should have both owners of original Nintendo Switch models excited and Ninte

Seagate arguably got back into the SSD game earlier than Western Digital, but the storage company worked primarily in the enterprise space – but finally at long last it’s introducing a BarraCuda SSD for PC enthusiasts. Before you get too excited, know that the BarraCuda SSD is only a SATA III drive, so it won’t be pushing the fastest speeds of NVMe drives like the WD Black NVMe SSD or Samsung 970 Evo. These SSDs also won’t put a huge dent in your wallet as the 250GB model goes for $74 (about £60

And the advent of the digital era has served to only bolster the importance of business networking, especially in certain sectors.

That’s thanks to Rubrik, which is working with Hamilton’s Mercedes F1 team to ensure that the vital information that could make the difference between victory and defeat stays safe and sound. Ahead of this weekend’s race, TechRadar Pro headed to Silverstone to find out just how Mercedes F1 manages to stay on top of its data needs to create a championship-winning team. “That is just absolutely bizarre,” he notes, although the move to cloud-enabled and hyperconverged infrastructure is helping with

Microsoft’s Movies & TV app could soon hit the screens of phones running iOS and Android. Microsoft moves onThe development of a new Movies & TV app is another sign that Microsoft has finally laid Windows 10 Mobile to rest, and is focusing on making Windows PCs play nicely with Android and iOS instead. Microsoft poured effort and resources into making Windows 10 Mobile a success, but the operating system never secured enough users to be viable. Later that week, Microsoft released Edge for Androi

There are many ways to root an Android phone, but we’ll do it by using TWRP Recovery. After flashing TWRP Recovery, we’ll use that to install SuperSU – the tool that gives you root access to your phone. Back up your dataRooting doesn’t necessarily wipe your Android phone, but if you need to unlock the bootloader or install a custom ROM, your data will be erased. Google Backup (which you’ll find under Settings > Backup and Reset) saves all your phone settings, passwords and some app data, but it’

You’re likely aware that Chrome is king of the browser world, but the extent of the lead that Google’s effort currently enjoys over its closest rival – Mozilla’s Firefox – might surprise you. Going by the latest figures from Statcounter, Chrome stands atop the browser hill with a desktop PC market share of 66.87% – that’s very nearly six times greater than Firefox’s share, which stands at 11.44%. In fact, Edge has actually fallen behind Apple’s Safari, with the latter in fourth place on 5.38%, m

Facebook looks set to capitalise on the World Cup fever currently sweeping over the globe. It’s reportedly in talks to produce a reality TV show based around the life of superstar footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. It’s something that Facebook has attempted with middling success. It attempted to court sports fans with live baseball streams, but it was only LaVar Ball’s reality junior basketball show that really found an audience. Could Facebook look at a similar football-themed show for Ronaldo?

Fortnite developer Epic has announced the temporary closure of the game’s sandbox mode, Playground, to take place on July 12. Allowing players to test out the game’s controls and building mechanics in a less pressured environment, the new 4-player Playground mode has already fostered a budding crafting community, and offers a more casual experience than the game’s hyper-competitive Battle Royale mode – in which 100 players battle to be the last one standing. It’s not all bad news, however, as Ep

We don’t even have the iPhone XI yet, but we’re already hearing about next year’s models and one feature that’s looking increasingly likely is a triple-lens camera. The report claims that this camera will be capable of stereoscopic imaging, using two of the sensors to capture an image from different perspectives, then using a triangulation method to work out how far the iPhone is from the subject of the photo. Better AR and optical zoomIt’s easy to imagine how that could benefit AR, since it wou

This weekend sees the start of the 105th Tour de France, with the world’s most famous cycling race starting in Noirmoutier-en-l’Île, before commencing a three-week tour of the nation before finishing on the Champs-Elysee – hopefully with Chris Froome in the yellow jersey. These services come from South African firm Dimension Data, which alongside race organisers the Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), is continuing its drive to make the Tour de France 2018 a more immersive and exciting experience f

Just when it appears that we’ve seen everything there is to see regarding the as-yet-unannounced Samsung Galaxy Note 9, another set of images surfaces that (allegedly) shows us more of the upcoming device. Though Samsung’s next business-minded flagship has yet to be officially unveiled, the online retailer Mobile Fun has already started listing pre-orders for a number of Galaxy Note 9 cases from Olixar, as reported by SamMobile. The listings in question offer a number of images from different an

At WWDC 2018 Apple promised to smarten Siri up for iOS 12 and, keeping to its word, the company has released a beta version of the Siri Shortcuts app via TestFlight to selected third parties. The feature will allow developers to create a single Siri voice command to trigger off a series of automated functions. Hey SiriThe idea behind Siri Shortcuts, which is based on the Workflow app Apple acquired in 2017, is to expand automation beyond HomeKit to all aspects of iOS 12. There’s always a ‘but’..

Before we dive into any of this, let’s just get one thing out of the way: Intel Coffee Lake-X isn’t confirmed to exist in any way, shape or form. Enter Coffee Lake-X. Now, Coffee Lake-X supposedly existed at one point, only to be later cancelled by Intel, according to some speculation from the Motley Fool . We don’t have any concrete information at this point – we don’t even know if it’ll be called Coffee Lake-X, but that doesn’t mean we can’t speculate. Intel supposedly confirmed a forthcoming

According to Microsoft, games that utilize the feature will half the amount of time it takes from when a download begins to the moment you’re actually able to play it. You won’t have to do anything extra to make it work besides updating to the latest version of the Xbox software. You’ll still need to download the entire game, obviously, but this will reduce the amount of time you’re just sitting around watching a download bar inch forward. The two big caveats here, though, are that games need to

VR headset owners probably won’t be surprised by many of the names on the Top VR games list, which splits games into sales tiers of Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze. Many of them fall on our lists for best HTC Vive games , best Oculus Rift games and best VR games overall. PlatinumGoldSilverCheck Valve’s link for the longer list of Bronze-selling VR titles. Does this mean that 2018 VR titles aren’t attracting as much interest, or simply that older games are hitting better Steam numbers because o

As we accelerate ever faster towards a world of driverless cars, advancements along the way become milestones to that inevitable occurrence. Take, for instance, the Summon feature that recently made its way to the Tesla Model 3. While the Autopilot feature was already available in the Model S and X, Tesla’s least expensive car can now park, all by itself. Autopilot is a driver assistance feature, according to Tesla, so it’s not a way to fully self-drive your car. Still, features like Summon show

Surprising no one, Apple has new MacBook products in the works. The listings reveal five model names for new MacBook laptops that Apple is seeking approval to sell in the Armenian, Belorussian, Kazakh, Kyrgyz and Russian markets: A1931, A1932, A1988, A1989 and A1990. Following the clear pattern in the numbering, A1931 and A1932 are likely to be two configurations of the same MacBook 2018 model. Many outlets are suspecting these to be new 12-inch MacBook devices or perhaps even the MacBook alongs
