The NPCs Discuss - Right to Repair In the Gaming World

On today's episode:  Electronic waste has become one of the most problematic forms of pollution in the world, with the Americas accounting for 13.1 metric tonnes of e-waste in 2019. The main driver for e-waste generation is the speed at which devices become obsolete, or which a new device surpasses it's predecessor and drives home new value that the previous model didn't. In the world of video games, this is also a serious concern. Attempting to repair your own failed device can be costly and potentially dangerous without some kind of direction or guidance on how to perform the repair. But what if things were to change, and you were given the opportunity to save yourself the money and repair your old Xbox 360 or Nintendo DS with support from the hardware companies? Let's talk about that possibility in this week's episode: Right to Repair in the gaming world.
