Nintendo announced its latest financial results overnight, giving us a huge wealth of data on sales of both hardware and games over the first year of the new console.

With all data accurate as of March 31, 2026, Nintendo has revealed just what a phenomenon the Switch 2 has been in its first…

But if you ask her now, even Eilish, now 24, doesn’t know if someone else could replicate her success. “Oh my god!” she says when asked where the next Billie Eilish might be discovered. “I have no idea.”Photograph: Darrell JacksonThese days it’s common for new artists to share their music on SoundCloud, but back then it was…
