Chief Executive John Flannery said his efforts to dig GE out of a financial hole that sent its shares down 40 percent in the past year now included thinking about "separately traded assets" in any of its units, without giving any details. Earlier, the United States' biggest industrial conglomerate said its finance arm, GE Capital, would take a $6.2 billion hit in the fourth quarter from a reevaluation of its insurance assets. GE shares were down 2.3 percent at $18.32 in morning trading.

Link Between Worlds and Mario 3D Land join Nintendo Selects next month
Three new games will be joining the "Nintendo Selects" line-up for 3DS in a few weeks. On February 3, you'll be able to nab The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, Super Mario 3D Land and Ultimate NES Remix for $19.99 through the eShop or at retail. This is one of those rare instances where Nintendo games get discounted (it only took seven years for 3D Land to go down in price).
If you somehow haven't acquired these games over the last half decade, I'd basically recommend all of them at that price point. Link Between Worlds is a particularly good choice, even if the whole game is on the exceptionally easy side. While the 3DS port of NES Remix is missing a few games, getting it for $20 is a steal.

The Incredibles seems set to be Pixar's first Lego game
There have been plenty of Lego video games centered around family-friendly properties, but Warner Bros. and Traveller's Tales appear ready to tap an entirely new source of material. It seems as a Pixar film is going to get its first Lego adaption.
According to a report from Comicbook.com (which was independently corroborated by Eurogamer), Traveller's Tales is working on Lego The Incredibles 2. The naming is kind of confusing, as this isn't a sequel to another Incredibles game; instead, it's meant to be a direct tie-in to the Incredibles 2 film that's releasing this June.
That's not the only Lego project that leaked, though. There's word of a Suicide Squad-like Lego DC Supervillains (although that might not be the actual title). It's about what you'd expect -- a game that prominently features the likes of Joker and Lex Luthor instead of their good guy counterparts Batman and Superman. There's no word as to when this one might release, but there are usually multiple Lego games in any given calendar year.
They're two rumors, but they both seem highly likely to pan out. And if Lego The Incredibles 2 proves to be a hit, there's a whole lot of other Pixar stuff that could be similarly adapted. Bet you never thought a Lego game could make you cry until Lego Up came along.

Star Wars Battlefront II patch brings a new hero ship and balance changes
The first Star Wars Battlefront II patch of the new year went live today and with it comes a host of tuning changes and a couple additions. I was hoping for something more extravagant to kick off 2018, if I'm being frank. It's a standard patch in a game still being held back by a major unresolved problem.
What's new? Protagonist Iden Versio's ship has joined the game as a Hero Starfighter (you'll need 5,000 credits to unlock it) and the 10-on-10 Blast mode is now playable on the The Last Jedi's Crait.
Alongside the official patch notes, there's also a running list of undocumented changes assembled by reddit user Tactical_Turtle12. The main point of interest is probably that DICE has lowered the milestones for weapon and weapon mod unlocks. Otherwise, it's nothing too out of the ordinary.

25% off Civ VI: Rise and Fall, PUBG, and more PC games at GMG
Digital retailer Green Man Gaming has started up a site-wide coupon code knocking 25% off almost every PC game on their site (as far as we know; we haven't come across any excluded items).
This is actually a pretty hot deal because you can now pick up rarely discounted titles such as the upcoming Civilization VI: Rise and Fall DLC for only $22.49, or other popular but hardly reduced titles such as PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Cuphead. (Both games have had strict price control by their respective publishers.)
Other noteworthy picks include upcoming titles out in January and February such as Lost Sphear, Secret of Mana, Railway Empire, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance. In fact, with Railway Empire you'll be able to stack the existing 15% off pre-order discount with the 25% off GMG coupon, making the train management sim only $32. We've listed all the noteworthy deals below, including select DLC expansion passes and digital currencies.
The code expires Wednesday morning at 11:00 AM Eastern.
