This Week’s Netflix Top 10: 13 Reasons Why Is Still The Most-Watched Show

Last week, the Netflix Top 10 was dominated by the newly-released comedy Space Force. While it may have reigned supreme then, it’s already been dethroned by the final season of another Netflix original.

The week of June 7 has a few big, notable releases. This includes the new season of Pokemon, numerous seasons of the anime One Piece, and the feel-good personal improvement series Queer Eye. However, kicking off Monday, 13 Reasons Why takes the top spot.

Pokemon Go Reshiram: Counters, Weaknesses, And Raid Hours Guide

A new Legendary Pokemon has arrived in Pokemon Go. Reshiram, the cover monster from Pokemon Black, is appearing in five-star Raids until June 16, making this your first chance to capture one in Niantic’s hit mobile game. Even a seasoned Pokemon Master needs a little assistance now and then, however, so we’ve rounded up some tips to help you battle and catch Reshiram below.

Reshiram Raid Hours

Reshiram will periodically appear in Gyms as a five-star Raid boss until 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET on June 16. These Raids can occur at any time, but you’ll receive a notification before a nearby one is about to begin, so you shouldn’t have much difficulty tracking a Raid down.

Niantic will also hold a handful of Reshiram Raid Hour events on Wednesday evenings. From 6-7 PM local time during these events, nearly every Gym will host a Reshiram Raid, giving you a much better chance to find the Legendary. You can see the Reshiram Raid Hour schedule below:

Flash Sale Offers Up To 50% Off PS4, Xbox One Games Under $20

If you’re someone who shops at GameStop even occasionally, you may have noticed the games retailer has been throwing a ton of flash sales recently, usually on pre-owned titles. While the offerings have varied slightly from week to week, the sales have generally offered some pretty good discounts on used games from recent years and even older. The latest flash sale is live now and, like previous sales, focuses primarily on PS4 and Xbox One games.

Today’s flash sale offers levels of discounts that increase as you buy more games–luckily, all the games in this sale are $20 or less. If you buy up to five pre-owned games, you’ll get 50% off the entire purchase.

  • Buy two games, get 20% off
  • Buy three games, get 30% off
  • Buy four games, get 40% off
  • Buy five games, get 50% off

The sale includes quite a few platform exclusives, such as Bloodborne and God of War for PS4 and Ori and the Will of the Wisps for Xbox One. You should note there are currently two major sales going on–PS4’s Days of Play and Xbox One’s Deals Unlocked–that offer steep discounts on brand-new versions of these games. For example, you can get the aforementioned games as new copies for around the same price, but if you want to pick up a bunch of games at once, you’ll still save more with the bulk discounts at GameStop right now.

All The Animal Crossing: New Horizons Summer Shell DIY Recipes

June is officially here, and for players in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the start of summer in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Along with a new assortment of bugs and fish to catch, you can find a new type of crafting material called summer shells washed up on the beach in your town and on Mystery Islands.

Summer shells are a distinct blue color, and much like the cherry blossom petals you could collect in spring, they are used in crafting special seasonal DIY recipes. As before, these recipes will only be available for a limited time, from June to August (or December to February in the Southern Hemisphere). Acquiring them also relies quite a bit on chance, as you’ll primarily need to shoot them down from balloons or find them washed up in bottles.

Since the summer shell recipes are only around for a brief period, you’ll want to get your hands on them while you can. To help you out, we’ve rounded up all the summer shell DIY recipes we’ve found–along with the materials you need to craft them–below.

Nintendo Confirms Extra 140,000 User Accounts Have Been Compromised

Nintendo has confirmed that a total of 300,000 user accounts have been compromised, up 140,000 cases above the 160,000 already declared in April.

In an update on the Nintendo Japan support page, the company states that an additional 140,000 NNIDs have been accessed maliciously. The passwords of these accounts have been reset, and the owners contacted directly.

[ignvideo url=”https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/04/24/nintendo-confirms-account-hacks-disables-nintendo-network-id-logins”]

In April, Nintendo began investigating reports of unauthorized account breaches, leading to an estimation that 160,000 NNIDs had potentially been affected. At the time, Nintendo clarified that this was not a security breach of the Nintendo network, but that it appeared the login data for accounts had been acquired by other means.

At 300,000 cases, Nintendo assures that less than 1% of NNIDs have been illegally logged into. The company is currently in the process of refunding users who had purchases made using their account. These purchases will have been made using linked PayPal or bank accounts, as credit card numbers are not part of the information that was compromised. Nintendo states that a third party may have been able to see nicknames, date of births, country/regions, and email addresses.

Nintendo has stated that it is taking additional security measures. It is also recommended that users activate two-factor authentication on their accounts.
