Nintendo confirms Super Mario Bros. Wonder will not include Charles Martinet

Nintendo officially confirms that the iconic and longstanding voice of Mario, Charles Martinet, will not be involved in the production of the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Wonder. 

After news came that Charles Martinet is retiring as the voice of Mario, Nintendo has now released even more information on his upcoming schedule and appearances. The voice actor first began working for Nintendo in 1991 as Mario in the CD-ROM version of Mario Teaches Typing. 

It turns out that Martinet has already hung up his voice-acting hat, as Nintendo has confirmed that he will not appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder or any further titles. Instead, Martinet will act as a Mario ambassador and will appear with Shigeru Miyamoto in a future video for a proper sendoff. 

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is set to release on October 20, 2023, and will be playable on the Nintendo Switch. This upcoming 2D title was first announced in the Nintendo Direct back in June. 

In this side-scrolling game, you'll be able to play as the iconic crew and sprint across the familiar clouds, pipes, and boiling-hot lava. However, there's a ton of new features that'll excite players, both new and old. 

There's a 'wonder flower' which will take creativity to a whole new level. Almost anything is possible with this new item; the ground could start moving, flowers could start talking, or Mario could even turn into an elephant. 

Not much else is known about Super Mario Bros. Wonder right now. However, players may be able to enjoy multiplayer co-op as there will be a variety of Mario characters available to play. Hopefully, as we get closer and closer to the release date, we'll be able to find out even more about the upcoming Mario title.

The latest Apple TV 4K test lets you watch four sports streams at once

Apple is trying something new with the latest beta version of tvOS 16.5: the option to watch up to four simultaneous streams at once. Right now it's limited to live sports streamed through the Apple TV app on the Apple TV 4K , specifically MLB Friday Night Baseball and the MLS Season Pass. A multi-view option was spotted in the tvOS software last month, but the code was hidden and not enabled. MacRumors reported that the feature would be enabled this weekend, and beta testers have since been able to use it. As yet multi-view hasn't been officially announced by Apple, but it's expected that tvOS 16.5 is going to be pushed out in its final form within the next month or so. WWDC 2023 is around the corner as well, when we should be hearing about the next major updates for Apple's various operating systems – including tvOS 17. How it works Over at 9to5Mac there's a hands-on demonstrating how the multi-view feature works, and it's pretty much as you would expe...

Garmin's new radar-equipped tail light will keep you safe on your e-bike

Garmin's Varia bike radars are some of the most popular pieces of cycling tech around – and now the company has delivered its first rearview radar to have been specially designed for some of the best e-Bikes .   Garmin's Varia range mounts to the back of your bike and broadcasts a radar signal behind you, so you can get visual and audible alerts when something's overtaking you. Even better, the new Varia eRTL615 plugs directly into most e-bikes, with no battery required. Because the catchily-named Varia eRTL615 is also a tail light, it'll also make sure you're visible to other vehicles too, promising to emit a flashing or solid light that's visible from up to a mile away in daylight. To connect Garmin's new radar tail light to your e-bike, you'll need to pick the right Garmin adapter cable (which isn't included). You can buy power cables compatible with Bosch, Shimano, or USB-A terminals or connections, with more info on those available on Garmin...

Nvidia RTX 4080 GPU could get cheaper with a new version – but don’t get your hopes up

Nvidia’s RTX 4080 is purportedly getting a new spin on the GPU which could reduce the cost, but any price reduction will likely be very minor, sadly, if it happens at all. Tom’s Hardware flagged up this rumor – and treat it with caution, as with anything from the ever-spinning mill – that originated from HKEPC (a tech site in Hong Kong), claiming that while the current RTX 4080 graphics card is built on the AD103-300 chip, Nvidia is going to use a slightly different GPU in the future, namely AD103-301. There’s now more evidence this is actually happening, Tom’s points out, courtesy of a graphics card maker, Galax, which under its RTX 4080 product details lists the GPU as ‘AD103-300/301’. Furthermore, VideoCardz , which also picked up on this, informs us that Gainward, another card maker, has also listed the updated GPU variant AD103-301 in its product specs. With two separate third-party graphics card makers mentioning this new spin on the GPU in their specs, it seems pret...
