- US members of Congress accuse Sony of ‘blatant anti-competitive conduct’ in Japan
"Politico reports that Democratic senator Maria Cantwell made the claim during a Senate Finance Committee hearing on Thursday, calling on US trade representative Katherine Tai to raise the issue with Japan during trade talks.
Cantwell’s claim was supported by two letters – one from four Republican members of Congress, the other from six Democrats – which also called on Tai and commerce secretary Gina Raimondo to take action.
The accusation being made is that Sony delibarately makes exclusivity deals with third-party publishers that are designed to ensure Xbox doesn’t gain a foothold in Japan."

- Japan’s competition regulator has approved Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard
"The Japan Fair Trade Commission has published a statement in which it says it has “reviewed the transaction and reached the conclusion that [it] is unlikely to result in substantially restraining competition in any particular fields of trade”.
It added that it “has notified the parties that the JFTC will not issue a cease and desist order, resulting in the completion of its review”.
In a document explaining its decision, the JFTC said the deal didn’t violate any of its anti-competition legislature, saying “the integration falls under the safe harbor criteria for vertical business combinations”."

- Intel Next-Gen Arc Battlemage GPU rumored to feature 64 Xe-Cores
"What is reportedly now mentioned on yet another unreleased slides, is that the Battlemage series would double the Xe-Core count compared to ACM-G10 GPU. Instead of 32, gamers could see up to 64 Xe-Cores on flagship GPU, most likely called BGM-G10.
This Battlemage GPU is also said to have a 256-bit memory bus, and 48MB of L2 cache. This means that the graphics cards based on this graphics processor could feature anything from 8, 16 or even 32GB of memory or something in-between, should Intel use a cut 192-bit memory bus instead. The L2 cache would be smaller than RTX 4080’s AD103 (64 MB), but the die size is said to be similar."

- NVIDIA says cryptocurrencies add nothing to the society
"Micheal Kagan, NVIDIA Chief Technology Officer said that cryptocurrencies do not bring anything useful to society, reports The Guardian. There is a better use for all that processing power, such as artificial intelligence, as the company is now focusing its data-center business on LLM (Large Language Model) AI tech, he adds."

- Apple secretly demoed it's VR headset to the top 100 Executives. $3000 reconfirmed, expecting 1 million sold first year. Little to no profit initially.
There was a momentous gathering at Apple Inc. last week, with the company’s roughly 100 highest-ranking executives descending on the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino, California. The group, known as the Top 100, was there to see Apple’s most important new product in years: its mixed-reality headset.
Moreover, the device will start at around $3,000, lack a clear killer app, require an external battery that will need to be replaced every couple of hours and use a design that some testers have deemed uncomfortable. It’s also likely to launch with limited media content.
The company believes it can sell about a million units of the headset — likely to be dubbed the Reality Pro or Reality One — in its first year. At $3,000, that would mean revenue of about $3 billion. There would be little to no profit at first, given that the components in the device are so expensive and Apple won’t be seeking its typical margins just yet.

- Ubisoft is no longer attending E3 2023 and will host its own event in June
Last month the Assassin's Creed publisher became the first major company to publicly commit to attending the revamped E3, which is due to take place in June at its traditional venue of the Los Angeles Convention Center.
However, in a statement issued to VGC, the company said it has now decided to "move in a different direction" and will instead be holding its own Ubisoft Forward Live event on June 12 in Los Angeles.
"E3 has fostered unforgettable moments across the industry throughout the years," a spokesperson told VGC.
"While we initially intended to have an official E3 presence, we've made the subsequent decision to move in a different direction, and will be holding a Ubisoft Forward Live event on 12th June in Los Angeles. We look forward to sharing more details with our players very soon."
