Evening Reading - March 24, 2026

It's nighttime in America, which means time for another edition of Evening Reading.

by · Shacknews

Welcome, Shackers, to the end of another Tuesday. I’m flying high today on the back of the successful launch of a new form of Indie-licious episode, made with help from a developer I highly respect, as well as a Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream preview. You can find that and more content down below, but we always have more coming, so keep your eyes peeled. For now? It’s the end of another day of posting, so that means an Evening Reading to wind down!

In case you missed it at Shacknews…

And now… More stuff from The Internet!!!

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is getting a second DLC: City Town

It’s crazy to me how much Sanrio’s cozy adventure game has grown since I first played it, but it works so well. Nice to see it getting so much more content.

Players are making Switch 2 attachments to play with mouse controls

Nintendo would be crazy not to eventually get in on attachments that make it easier to play with things like mouse controls.

But not if Shinsuke Hasegawa has anything to say about it

I really, really need my fellows in gaming journalism to be more considerate of the stories they push, because what Bloomberg did today was just embarrassing. We are not horses being led around by the bit.

A helping hand from Grace

I love how they never explained how she mushes blood and rusty metal together to make bullets. You go girl.

NVIDIA’s AI slop can’t catch a break this week.

Defacing literature for a good cause

I would never say anyone should burn a book, but symbolically letting folks tear one apart, monetizing it, and putting that money towards good feels like sweet lemonade out of lemons.

A Castlevania classic to carry your work week

Harmony of Despair had such great remixes. I really hope we get some good music in the new Castlevania game this year.

That covers your Evening Reading for this March 24, 2026. If you want to support our efforts, you can always lend a hand through Shacknews Mercury, where you can support the site for as little as a dollar a month. If you don’t have a dollar, you don’t need one to check out Shackmaps, which is our interactive map program hosting video game maps and their secrets across a variety of popular games. You can also check out Bubbletron, which is a free game in which you assemble a trillion dollar start up from a number of daily randomized prompts. Can you get the highest valuation and earn the day’s Money Hat?

Now hear me out: I think we should create studies about the effects of AI video propaganda on the populace. Seems... prudent I suppose?
