Asking Eric: Retiree feels obligated to always go see friends' new band
Dear Eric: Since retiring, some friends have put together a band. I went to one of their gigs a couple years ago, and recently a practice session. They would clearly like me to go to more, or all, of their gigs. The gigs are typically at night, an hour from where I live. I am a morning person. After years of commuting, I am happy to drive as little as possible. I enjoy being with a friend or two but put me in a room full of people and I am ready to go home. Many of the activities I enjoy are solitary, and I cannot remember ever asking anyone to come out and support anything I do.

Where To Buy The Nintendo Switch 2 Before It Sells Out
Nintendo's newest release is finally here, but if the launch is anything like its predecessor, we may be in for a long stretch of backorders and waitlists. Stock will be limited upon release, but retailers like Walmart and GameStop will have consoles available online starting at midnight EST on June 5. Target has also confirmed a second wave of available online orders on June 6. Here's where to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 right now and all the other details you need to know. Here's where to buy the Nintendo Switch 2 now that it's officially been released. As we mentioned above, major retailers like Target and GameStop are your best bet at getting your hands on the Switch 2—but don't be surprised if you still end up on a waitlist. The original Switch is arguably the most popular gaming consoles. Its ability to bridge casual and serious gamers has made it a household favorite since its release, and we're expecting a similar reaction to the latest release. That said, the Switch 2 starts at $449.99—a significant jump from the $299.99 launch price of the first model and the $349.99 upgraded OLED model. This price increase may give you a window to snag the Switch 2 ahead of those hoping to catch a price drop. Target The Nintendo Switch 2 is larger, more powerful and delivers sharper and brighter 4K visuals. The console is launching with a slew of heavy hitters, including classics like Mario, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, as well as other popular AAA titles like Cyberpunk 2077. It also has a few notable hardware upgrades, including updated Joy-Cons with slightly larger analog sticks, magnetic rail attachments and an optical sensor that allows the controller to act like a mouse—a potential bonus for PC gamers. Consumer tech and electronics editor Rebecca Isaacs tested the Nintendo Switch 2 and loved a few standout features. 'Nintendo focused on two major design upgrades here, the display and the Joy-Cons. The display increased from a 7-inch LCD display to a lovely 7.9-inch LCD that showcases the bright, vivid colors fans for fans of games like Mario Kart World,' she says. She also loved the upgraded controllers. 'The new Joy-Cons get Motion Control and HD Rumble 2 for a more immersive gaming experience, especially when you're playing action-packed games like Super Mario Party Jamboree. The joysticks also have less resistance, which made for smoother gameplay in Hogwarts Legacy, which I appreciated. Plus, you can now chat with your friends in real time thanks to a dedicated chat button on the Joy-Cons.' Pro Tip: If you're willing to wait, you can still register your existing Nintendo account to receive an individual invitation to purchase the latest model when it's available. However, these is no telling how long the wait will be. The Switch 2 starts at $449.99. It's the most expensive launch from Nintendo so far, but it's supposed to offer more power and significantly improved 4K visuals over the older generations. Yes, the Nintendo Switch 2 is backwards compatible—with a few caveats. Nintendo has released a list of apps and games with issues ranging from incompatible Joy-Cons to complete start-up errors. Some issues are expected to be addressed by launch, but it's worth considering if any of your favorites have made the list. You may also want to hold onto your original Nintendo Joy-Cons. There are a handful of games that you can technically play on the Switch 2, but are currently incompatible with its new controllers. For select games, you'll have to connect your original Joy-Cons to the Switch 2 in order to play. We asked Isaacs what she thinks of the Switch 2 after trying the new console out for herself. 'The new Nintendo Switch 2 offers a slew of worthy upgrades. The display is brighter and smoother, with a larger display for gaming. Nintendo updated the controllers not only with a new design, but with some under-the-hood enhancements to make joystick movements easier and faster. There's also the enhanced processor and graphics. All of this to say: If you're a die-hard Nintendo fan, and want to future-proof your Nintendo games, the new Nintendo Switch 2 is absolutely worth picking up.'

For the Super Bowl, team market size will never matter
Some sports arguments aren't worth the time to try to make. But with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver attempting on Wednesday to compare a Super Bowl featuring two small-market teams to an NBA Finals featuring two small-market teams (as it does this year), the counter needs to be offered. Long ago, the Super Bowl transcended the market size of the participants. It moved beyond the actual or perceived relevance of the teams that make it. Simply by scaling the playoff tree and earning a berth in the game makes a team extremely relevant, since every round of the postseason has become a massive deal. With each win, the small-market and/or previously irrelevant team becomes more and more significant and compelling. By the time some 60 million fans have watched each of the Super Bowl teams win their conference championship games, the relevance is cemented. The audience for the Super Bowl will always be immense. Especially since it's the biggest sports day in the country, with millions who rarely if ever watch any other games tuning in, picking a team to root for, and witnessing the largest shared experience on the calendar. This isn't one of those tired and misguided 'NBA went woke' takes. It's true for the NBA Finals, the World Series, and the Stanley Cup Final. Market size of the participants will move the ratings needle in each of those sports, because none of them enjoy the kind of knee-jerk popularity that prompts more than 100 million to stop everything they're doing on a Sunday in February and take in the Super Bowl. The phenomenon isn't a fluke. It didn't happen overnight. For the past 50 years or longer, the NFL has systematically built pro football into something that will attract all football fans — and plenty of non-football fans — to watch the game. It also helps that, in football, it's single elimination. The stakes are higher. The drama is heightened. And anything can happen. Sure, the other sports should aspire to have a similar impact. As audiences fracture, only one sport has consistently attracted huge numbers to simultaneously seek out and consume the content, from offseason events like the draft to preseason games that mean absolutely nothing to regular-season games on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays (and more and more of the other days of the week) to playoff games with intrigue and tension and stakes that build and build and build until two teams earn berths in the holy grail of American sport. The more that people care about pro football, the easier it is to drop a game on a smart TV and wait for millions to inevitably find it. The streaming numbers for the NFL are bearing out that reality. The broadcast numbers for NFL games remain jaw-dropping, even as the traditional networks otherwise struggle to compete with the many entertainment choices that are available, 24 hours per day. It's somewhat surprising that Silver would even try to make the comparison. While there's plenty of meat on the sports bone for basketball, baseball, and hockey to thrive, catching the NFL at this point will take as long as it took for the NFL to create its current margin, if not a lot longer. Especially since the NFL never gets complacent and is always looking for ways to make the gap between itself and other sports larger and larger and larger. And since the NFL is always ramping up its efforts to become an even bigger deal globally.
