Almost two years ago, Performance Design Products launched a Playstation 4 media remote to be used with various apps on the Playstation Store. While the remote was very good in specific situations, there were a lot of unsupported apps, which made using the remote fairly frustrating. Despite the great design of that product, PDP decided to listen to customer and reviewer feedback and launch a smaller, sleeker, and more universal remote. When you compare the two remotes from PDP, the…

Microsoft has officially unveiled the latest in Xbox technology: the Xbox One X! More powerful than any other console, better looking than any other console, and yes, the smallest Xbox system to date. Microsoft took a lot of heat when the PS4 Pro launched earlier this year, and with a lack of exclusive titles for the Xbox family in 2017, many began to question what Microsoft was doing. Now we know, and I wouldn’t expect Microsoft to be quiet for…

Over the last few weeks we have been looking at various PowerA accessories for the Nintendo Switch. We gave rave reviews to the Joy-Con grip, and thought that the Joy-Con charging dock was a must own for anyone hoping to play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe frequently. But what happens when you want to bring your Switch on vacation, or to a friends house? There are only a few official options right now, and the Everywhere Messenger Bag from PowerA is…

Last week, PowerA was nice enough to send over a box full of great Nintendo Switch accessories, and this week we will be reviewing each and every one of them! Yesterday, we showed the incredible value of the PowerA Joy-Con Charging Dock which charges up to 4 Joy-Con controllers at one time. Today, we are looking at a less necessary accessory, although one that you might want to pick up anyways. Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers are fairly expensive, so many…

If you were planning on grabbing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, or even Splatoon 2 on the Nintendo Switch, you also probably snapped up a couple extra Joy-Con controllers so you can engage in some four player local multiplayer! If you are like me, and have multiple Switch units in your house, you might have purchased even MORE Joy-Cons. While having a ton of Joy-Cons is great, and although the batteries in the controllers last a fair amount of time, you…

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I don’t regret buying a Wii U. There are a ton of great games on the Wii U. I own most of them. I also really love the Wii U gamepad. It is, currently, my favorite video game controller. That said, I’m not happy at all with how Nintendo has treated the system, especially near the end of its life. Let’s take a look back at the Life and Death of…

I’ve had my New 3DS for awhile now and I’ve been enjoying the system a lot. I love that the system can play SNES virtual console games, scan amiibo right on the touch screen, and it has a better internet browser too. If you’ve ever wanted a New 3DS but thought they were a little bit high, well, you should check out this Black Friday for the best New 3DS price yet! Nintendo will be releasing two new special edition…

I have owned a number of bluetooth earbuds in the last couple years, but they have always been cheap and generally pretty useless. I'm not talking about a bluetooth headset for answering calls, mind you, but an actual set of bluetooth earbuds for listening to music while moving around your home, or perhaps exercising. While I can't say I loved everything about the Outlier Sports, I can say the audio was top notch, and the connection flawless. Two key components to a quality audio product.

Ever since Nintendo released the Nintendo Switch trailer this month, everyone has been wondering when Nintendo would give us even more details about the system. We got word that we wouldn’t hear anything more till next year, but we didn’t know when next year. Now we know that Nintendo will be announcing more details in January! Yesterday, Nintendo announced that they would hold a press conference about the Nintendo Switch on January 12th. The event will take place in Tokyo…
