(PR) Intel Refreshes its Iconic Brand Motto - Introduces: "That's the
Intel introduced its new brand to the world Tuesday at the Intel Vision 2025 event in Las Vegas. Leading with "That's the power of Intel Inside," Intel leans into the essential role the company—along with its partners and customers—plays in the world while giving a nod to the company's wildly popular "Intel Inside" campaign of the 1990s.
Brett Hannath, chief marketing officer for Intel, says the new brand platform anchors on the idea that "Intel ignites the greatness within"—in every employee, customer, consumer, community, partner. All the while, it allows Intel to reflect on its proud heritage. (The Intel Inside co-marketing campaign launched in 1991 helped Intel become a household name around the globe over the next decade.) More than a marketing initiative, "That's the power of Intel Inside" is an avenue for amplifying Intel's importance in today's world. Intel's leaders plan to leverage the new brand platform to drive differentiation, revenue growth, and equity with customers and partners.

(PR) Audio-Technica Expands R-Series Open-back Range with New Entry-Le
Audio-Technica, a leading innovator in transducer technology for over 60 years, is expanding its R-Series line of professional open-back headphones with the introduction of the ATH-R30x Open-Back Reference Headphones. First previewed in January at the NAMM show, they join the ATH-R50x and flagship ATH-R70xa, both of which launched to rave reviews earlier this year. Open-back R-Series headphones provide a natural, spacious sound akin to that produced by a speaker monitor system, ideal for mixing, mastering, and creating in a studio or other private space. ATH-R30x headphones offer the natural R-Series open-back listening experience at an affordable price. Ideally suited for those working in a home studio, or anyone interested in exploring open-back sound, these headphones provide extremely accurate audio reproduction with a spacious soundstage that replicates live performance.
Fully open-back sound relies solely on the performance of the 40 mm drivers, with each diaphragm movement directly translating into sound—ATH-R30x headphones are engineered to eliminate internal resonances and provide extremely quick transient response to deliver an authentic open-air experience with minimal distortion. The spacious soundstage and audio clarity are the result of Audio-Technica transducer design with very little additional tuning or damping. High-efficiency magnets and pure alloy magnetic circuit design reduce distortion and ensure accurate and extended high-frequency response. Acoustically transparent, honeycomb-mesh housings provide a natural and spacious open-back sound.

(PR) Blue Prince's Lead Developer Explores Indie Project's Puzzle Mech
If you have ever found yourself in an unfamiliar room, staring at a closed door and wondering what lies beyond it, then you are already familiar with the mysterious driving force of Blue Prince. Will this door lead to a twisting passageway? A quiet bedroom? Or a grand ballroom? My name is Tonda Ros, an indie developer with a love for atmospheric games, and for the last eight years, I have been working on a game about a large manor and its many mysterious doors. Blue Prince was formed from big ideas from very different worlds. It has elements of mystery, strategy and discovery, merging the world of a first-person puzzle adventure with the drafting mechanics of a tabletop card game. It also launches April 10 as a day one PlayStation Plus Game Catalog title. Other launch platforms include: Xbox Series X/S and Windows PC (Steam).
But how exactly does the game work?
Floor plan drafting: when my own journey began almost a decade ago, I had one simple idea: "Every door is a choice." In a way, these five words sum up the entirety of Blue Prince. The estate of Mount Holly is not an ordinary house. This is a manor of shifting rooms and ever-changing expectations. And in this house, each door you open can lead to one of three different rooms. The choice is up to you. Do you want a storeroom to gain useful tools? A library to search for more clues? Or perhaps simply a long hallway, to grant yourself even more doors to continue your exploration? As you make your decision and open the door, you are instantly met with the room of your choosing.

Nintendo Confirms Delay of Switch 2 Pre-orders in Canada, June 5 Launc
Not too long after delivering its in-depth Switch 2 showcase, Nintendo of America and retail partners postponed pre-launch reservations for the forthcoming hybrid gaming console. An official announcement stated: "pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the U.S. will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions. Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged." The vast majority of industry watchdogs reckon that company will be assessing an adjustment of launch day product MSRPs. Last week's North American presentation outlined price points of $449.99 and $499.99; for a standard package and a Mario Kart World Pack (respectively). Theorized adjustments could extend to physical copies of games, as well as accessories; e.g. the Switch 2 Pro Controller.
Gamers further north—in the neighboring nation of Canada—were relieved about last week's alert being non-applicable to their market region. Up until yesterday, pre-orders were on track at CA$629.99 (base console) and CA$699.99 (with Mario Kart World). Unfortunately, the House of Mario's Canuck branch has confirmed that recent events have had a knock-on effect for local customers. As disclosed in a statement to MobileSyrup, Nintendo of Canada explained: "pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in Canada will not start on April 9, 2025 in order to align with the timing of pre-orders to be determined in the U.S....Nintendo will provide updated information at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged." MobileSyrup's report was updated yesterday evening; with links to social media bulletins posted by the regional arms of Walmart and GameStop. Both retail outlets repeated Nintendo of Canada's disappointing message.

Lightmatter Unveils Six‑Chip Photonic AI Processor with Incredible Per
Lightmatter has launched its latest photonic processor, representing a fundamental shift from traditional computing architectures. The new system integrates six chips into a single 3D packaged module, each containing photonic tensor cores and control dies that work in concert to accelerate AI workloads. Detailed in a recent Nature publication, the processor combines approximately 50 billion transistors with one million photonic components interconnected via high-speed optical links. The industry has faced numerous computing challenges as conventional scaling approaches plateau, with Moore's Law, Dennard scaling, and DRAM capacity doubling, all reaching physical limits per silicon area. Lightmatter's solution implements an adaptive block floating point (ABFP) format with analog gain control to overcome these barriers. During matrix operations, weights and activations are grouped into blocks sharing a single exponent determined by the most significant value, minimizing quantization errors.
The processor achieves 65.5 trillion 16-bit ABFP operations per second (sort of 16-bit TOPs) while consuming just 78 W of electrical power and 1.6 W of optical power. What sets this processor apart is its ability to run unmodified AI models with near FP32 accuracy. The system successfully executes full-scale models, including ResNet for image classification, BERT for natural language processing, and DeepMind's Atari reinforcement learning algorithms without specialized retraining or quantization-aware techniques. This represents the first commercially available photonic AI accelerator capable of running off-the-shelf models without fine-tuning. The processor's architecture fundamentally uses light for computation to address next-generation GPUs' prohibitive costs and energy demands. With native integration for popular AI frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow, Lightmatter hopes for immediate adoption in production environments.
