Everything That Really Matters From Today’s Apple Event

Today is Apple Day. I’m not in Apple Park in a glass donut , but I watched a live stream from two devices at the same time, so I got twice the impression of Apple’s reality distortion field than everyone else. Before I turn into Ceramic White Hulk, here’s a quick recap of all of the coolest updates from Apple’s September 2019 event.

Apple Arcade hits the App Store

Services, services, services. We all know Apple Arcade is coming soon – Apple’s “pay us a monthly fee to access exclusive games” service. I may not have used Frogger as my very first demo for the Apple Arcade service, as it’s a bit old school to say the least, but here it is. Yes, this image shows Frogger navigating infant land, including one giant infant to be dodged during the demonstration. (Other demos for Apple Arcade exclusives like Annapurna Interactive’s Sayonara Wild Hearts looked a little more interesting.)

Maybe it’s just me, but I wish Apple had highlighted titles that were a little more exciting than all these family games, but this is Apple. Hopefully we’ll see some super fun content from all the developers working with Apple Arcade:

Details: Apple Arcade will launch on September 19 in 150 countries for $ 5 a month. You also get a month’s free trial.

Jason Momoa can’t see a damn thing

Do you say more services? Let’s go to! Tim Cook showed off a trailer for See , Apple’s original show starring Game of Thrones Aquaman . Trick? No one will see anything in the future. And then children are born and they can see and all hell is losing one of these deals.

Details: The first original shows for Apple TV + will launch on November 1, and the service is launching in over 100 countries for $ 5 / month (for family members). “This is crazy,” exclaimed Cook.

Plus, you get a year of free Apple TV + if you buy an iPhone, iPad, or MacBook. Is it difficult for Apple to pump services? You bet they are.
