The owner of 100s of devkits, and undumped prototype game carts from a SEGA office clearance - which the Video Game Preservation Museum had been pursuing - has been raided by UK police and the devkits taken.

This ongoing story is wild, includes undercover SEGA agents.

Funny to see reports of developers lacking Switch 2 devkits, just for the major player that was missing them to be Embracer (for damn good reason)

4 months after launch, Switch 2 devkits are still unavailable for 95% of us indie devs.

Thank god for backwards compatibility...

I kept seeing people say that Final Fantasy XI still needed PS2 devkits to make new content, despite no longer being playable on PS2 for many years. The FF wiki claims it too, with no source.
Well, here it is. It sounds like they scrounged dozens of devkits from around the world.

Warframe is in the works for Nintendo Switch 2. Digital Extremes now has devkits as confirmed in Devshorts 71: www.rpgsite.net/news/18384-w...

if anyone is curious how FFXI development is going, they've just began work to eliminate the need for ps2 devkits

because that's a thing they still needed

Guess Nintendo doesn't have Switch 2 devkits either.

Two weeks until #Switch2 public announcement and us "small indie devs" still have ZERO information on devkits, retrocompatibility of our games, pricing or engines compatible.

*Remembers the time when the first 2 devkits per company were free.*

Game console devkits are my personal white whales. I'd love to own one, just any tbh, but I do not have the money for it. :,)

seems like Square might be ramping up to give FFXI more resources too now that it's off PS2 devkits finally

Super MAGFest was awesome but the coolest part might have been checking out EdTheNerd's many retro console devkits.
