CNET24-07-2025
Lego's Game Boy just debuted at San Diego Comic-Con and fans of Nintendo and Lego alike are stoked with this impressive new set. It looks stunning, is nearly to scale and has some changeable elements worth getting excited about. The 421-piece build is perfect for fans of classic video games and now you can preorder the set at Amazon or Lego. It's priced at $60 and will be released officially Oct. 1., which means you (or someone you love) could get this build in time for the holidays.
This build has all the details you'd expect, from the A/B buttons and control panel to a volume dial on the side. It even has the Game Pak slot and comes with Lego versions of the iconic Super Mario Land and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Game Paks as part of the build. Additionally, you can choose from three display options: the Nintendo start screen or a still from one of the included Game Paks. Even better? You can load one of the Game Pak cartridges into the Game Pak slot like you would with a real Game Boy and display the other on a stand beside the handheld console replica.
Why this deal matters
This Lego replica of the Nintendo Game Boy is a great addition to your collection and makes for the perfect display in a game room, office or den. Collectable sets like these tend to sell out once they are officially released, so getting your preorder in now is a good idea.

Jim Acosta blasted on social media after 'interviewing' AI avatar of Parkland shooting victim

Former CNN anchor Jim Acosta was slammed on social media after he posted a clip of his "interview" with an artificially animated avatar of deceased teenager Joaquin Oliver to promote a gun control message on Monday. Working with the gun control group Change the Ref, founded by Oliver's parents, Acosta had a conversation on his Substack with an avatar created by the father of the son, who was killed in the Parkland high school shooting in 2018. Oliver would have turned 25 on Monday. Social media users were shocked by Acosta's "grotesque" interview and slammed the journalist for using the deceased teen's avatar for political content. "You're interviewing an AI recreation of a person who was murdered by a spree killer?" one Bluesky user questioned. "Wow. It's hard to accept that no one around you suggested that this was probably in the worst possible taste." WHITE HOUSE CONDEMNS JIM ACOSTA AS 'DISGRACEFUL HUMAN BEING' AFTER HE JOKES ABOUT TRUMP'S DEAD EX-WIFE Another Bluesky user slammed Acosta for promoting the conversation as a "one-of-a-kind interview" with Oliver, but instead spoke with the deceased teen's computer-generated avatar. "'I'll have a one-of-a-kind interview with Joaquin Oliver' no you won't, you're talking to a glorified answering machine message you dingbat," the user asserted. Other users on the liberal social media site were also critical of Acosta calling the conversation with the teen's avatar an "interview," with one user labeling the conversation a "grotesque puppet show." CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST MEDIA AND CULTURE NEWS "You don't have an interview. You're facilitating a grotesque puppet show, using grieving parent's heartbreak for a bit," the Bluesky user stated. "The bar is in hell, and you still managed to trip on it." On X, Acosta disabled users that weren't followed by him from commenting on his posts, which some users on the social media site linked to the backlash he was receiving from the "interview" with Oliver. Stephen L. Miller, a conservative political commentator, noted Acosta's decision to block his posts from comments, and slammed the journalist for his "ghoulish act of talking to AI ghosts." Daily Wire reporter Ryan Saavedra also weighed in on Acosta's "interview," noting on X that the journalist's post seemed to have "crossed the line for everyone" on Bluesky. Conservative outlet Townhall called out Acosta's "DISTURBING" conversation with Oliver's avatar and stated that the "interview" raises "HUGE" ethical questions about journalism. The Federalist's Sean Davis called Acosta's "interview" with the teen's avatar "demonic" and criticized the journalist for conversing with "scripted AI chatbot holograms of dead people." CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Acosta replied to Reason's Robby Soave, who had called the interview "insane and evil," by noting again he'd been approached by Oliver's father. The liberal journalist left CNN in January and moved to Substack, where he's continued to give progressive commentary and provide a friendly outlet for liberal guests. Fox News' David Rutz contributed to this report.

Trump repeats claim Kimmel, Fallon are 'next' after Stephen Colbert cancellation

President Donald Trump doubled down on Wednesday that late-night hosts Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel would be "next" to be canceled during a press conference. During the presser, Real America's Voice reporter Brian Glenn asked about reports that radio host Howard Stern may part ways with Sirius XM after his contract expires this fall. With that in mind, Glenn asked if the "hate Trump" entertainment model was losing popularity with Americans. Trump cited CBS' recent cancellation of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" as an example and added that he believes Fallon and Kimmel are next. "Well, it hasn't worked," Trump said. "And it hasn't worked, really, for a long time, and I would say pretty much from the beginning. Colbert has no talent. I mean, I could take anybody here. I could go outside in the beautiful streets and pick a couple of people that do just as well or better. They'd get higher ratings than he did. He's got no talent." He continued, "Fallon has no talent. Kimmel has no talent. They're next. They're going to be going. I hear they're going to be going. I don't know, but I would imagine because they'd get—you know, Colbert has better ratings than Kimmel or Fallon." Trump made a similar declaration on Truth Social after Colbert's show was canceled last month. "The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone," Trump wrote. He continued, "These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It's really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!" Although some liberal commentators claimed CBS canceled Colbert's show for political reasons to appease Trump, Paramount—CBS' parent company—insisted it was "purely a financial decision." Regarding Stern, Trump remarked how he used to "have fun" when he appeared on his show. He went on to say that Stern went downhill after endorsing Hillary Clinton for president in 2016. "He lost his audience. People said give me a break. He went down when he endorsed Hillary Clinton," Trump said.
