As promised earlier this month, singer Ariana Grande is now a playable character in Final Fantasy mobile game Brave Exvius. Here's how to add the bunny-eared performer to your pixel party.

Have you ever thought "my wireless earphones are just too big?" Have you ever thought "man, I wish my headphones told me their battery life whenever I switched them on?" Have you ever thought "I wish I could listen to all my music through one earphone, so I don't need to wear both?" Apple's new AirPods solve a lot of these problems. Problems I'm not entirely sure needed to be solved, but problems nonetheless.

Thanks to its ability to attract non-gamers, nostalgic characters, simple mechanics, the novelty of augmented reality and its social nature, Pokemon GO reached a level of success in 2016 that eludes even some of the most successful traditional video games.

Record downloads, engagement and of course - revenue.

If you've caught a domestic or international flight any time over the last few months, you would have heard a pilot or cabin crew make an announcement about the Galaxy Note7 — specifically about how you're not allowed to have one of the potentially explosive devices on a plane.

Now that over 95 per cent of Note7s have been returned to Samsung in Australia — with just over 2000 devices left unaccounted for — it's hoping that Australia's airline safety watchdog will follow the US in removing the mandate for carriers to keep on reminding us about the Note7 every damn time we sit down on a plane.

Remember the mobile collectible card game Titanfall spin-off we told you about back in September? Well, forget it. It's dead. Titanfall: Frontline is cancelled, it's closed beta shutting down next week. Why? Seems like it just didn't have that Titanfall zest.

Back when people still didn't know what the Switch was going to be, there was the Morphus X300. It looks awfully similar to the Switch, except that it plays Android games instead of Mario Kart. And as I found out at CES this year, it might actually end up in Australia one day.

Turning the Apple Watch on its side while it's charging overnight puts it in Nightstand Mode so you can always see the time. But with Elgato's amusing new W3 stand, instead of a tiny alarm clock, your Apple Watch becomes a miniature replica of the original Macintosh computer on your bedside table.

As if adding Ariana Grande's likeness to Square Enix's free to play mobile game Final Fantasy Brave Exvius wasn't strange enough, her song "Touch It," will also be given a fully orchestrated remix for the game. It's kind of ... good?

After weeks of being hyped on Twitter and Facebook, fresh mobile ports of Mega Man 1 through 6 have arrived on iOS and Android, and they are quite possibly the worst way to experience six classic NES games.

Welcome to 2017.

On a particularly hot day last summer, Imgur poster Joelalmeidaptg was walking down the street playing Pokémon Go when they heard a kitten crying for help from behind a nearby electrical post. Months later, the cat, named Spock, is thriving in its new home thanks to an unlikely string of events.

A company out of France has gamified pelvic floor exercises. And created a very unique controller.

Clash of Clans is a mobile game about clans. Clashing. It's that very concept that, more than five years after the game's debut on iOS and Android, has upset Iran, leading to the country's interior ministry blocking gamers from accessing it.

If you spend any time on deck building sites, the Hearthstone Reddit, or just play around on the game's ranked ladder for any amount of time, you probably know that the community has been struggling with the rise of Pirate Warrior decks ever since Mean Streets of Gadgetzan released earlier this month.

Viral rat-hunting mobile game Pokemon GO is now on the Apple Watch. Starting today, you can find rats, some of which now have Christmas hats, on your $399+ wrist-bound iPhone.

If you like the idea of going peep bowling on your phone, then I present: the original RollerCoaster Tycoon, albeit with a more mobile-friendly interface and a reasonable one-time fee.

The last time I played mobile games with any regularity was all the way back in 2004. My phone had some kind of proto-Bejewelled game on it, and I used to while away the bus trip home from school inanely matching coloured gems. Before that, it was Snake (or even better, Snake 2!), but it wasn't long before the simple games and repetitive play lost my interest entirely.

It's really quite depressing that some people thrive on drama, so much so they feel the need to manufacture it. Such is the case for one user in the Pokemon GO Reddit community, who posted a supposed email from Niantic Labs' customer support stating that the Apple Watch version of the popular game had been "shelved". Fortunately, the developer was quick to debunk the rumour, calling the Reddit email a fake.

If you were worried that Nintendo's move into mobile gaming would change the quality of their games, Super Mario Run should be a relief. Auto-running and screen orientation aside, it's a full-featured Mario game that just happens to run on your phone.
