🎮This Week in Gaming
The Japanese gaming and comic platform launched its own payment platform to combat Visa and Mastercard's censorship.
This new payment method is called "Minna no Ginko Payment" and it's supposed to be an instant payment platform connected to Minna no Ginko, a Japanese digital bank.
Unfortunately, this option won't be available for people outside of Japan and the company doesn't guarantee the app’s operation when accessed from overseas.

💸The Best Deal
Machinegames is having a sale on Steam, giving up to 75% off on its titles. Or at least that is what it says at the top of the sales page, but you will see that some games have an 80 or even 85% discount.
I recommend you buy the Wolfenstein Alt History Collection. You'll get all the Wolfenstein games for around 8 bucks.
