A Texas dude allegedly scored the Yu-Gi-Oh motherlode when he pulled multiple uncut sheets of first-edition Blue-Eyes White Dragon cards out of a dumpster -- yeah the same SDK-001 legend that single-handedly defined the game back in '99, now worth a cool million if the whole haul sells clean.

Dungeons & Dragons will be following MTG and rolling in Universes Beyond soon, according to Hasbro CEO Chris Cox.

Cody Rhodes got slapped with a Nintendo cease-and-desist over his Zelda boots -- the WWE champ thought throwing the Triforce on his ring gear was a harmless fanboy flex until Big N's lawyers sent the polite but firm "take it off" letter and he yanked the design faster than a botched elbow drop. Yeah the guy who tattoos the symbol on his finger still gets to keep that one, but the boots h...

Good luck with the $80 games. Gamers aren't paying full price for new games any more, with Gen X being the most skeptical about new releases. Gen Z and Millennials aren't having it, either.

Masters of the Universe opening weekend box office is tracking at around $25 million, which is lower than even Tron: Ares, which opened at $33 million. That's... not good.

So is the MOTU brand just damaged goods now? Is it Kev...
