Japan Industrial Design Promotional Organization (JIDPO) has announced this year's Good Design Award or the so-called "G-Mark." Design-wise, this is a pretty big deal. Almost 3,000 products were screened, and this year a total 1,043 products were given the coveted G-Mark. Out of those, there is a Good Design Award Best 15. Think of it as the cream of the crop, best of the best. The Nintendo Wii (and Wii-mote and Nunchuk) snagged a spot in that 15. The Wii wasn't the only gaming entry as Second Life also made it into the Best 15. Congrats Nintendo and Linden Lab.
At GDC 2024, Convai showed off a new AI NPC demo made with Unity. They also announced new features and partnerships with game developers.

Do that with Marvel Avengers and every other Gacha game and the wold would be great.
So, what games are you not allowed to stream on Twitch?
As they should be. There's no need for these kinds of games. It's just prurient nonsense.
