Protection plan on Nintendo Switch joycons

I bought the protection plan on Nintendo Switch joycons. So far I haven't had to use the plan, but I have used the Geek Squad plan for another item years ago and they took care of me with no issues.

Fantastic movie and the 4k transfer seemed fine to me, however I am no expert. In my eyes the movie never looked better.

Fantastic movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a fantastic movie. 4k transfer seems pretty good but quite dark. I believe this is just how the movie was shot though and not the fault of the quality.

The Dark Knight looks better than the other two
on February 14, 2021
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm no expert, but to me these are great 4K transfers. Minus 1 star only because there is a noticeable difference between The Dark Knight (the 2nd movie) and the other two movies. The Dark Knight just looks sharper and better than the other two for sure.
Still a great collection of movies in the best possible format to own at home.

Up in the opulent celestial capital of the Lofty Realm, the spoiled harvest goddess Sakuna whiles away her life in luxury, resting on the laurels of her late parents. Below in the Lowly Realm, a vicious mountain bandit chases a group of desperate humans to the edge of a cliff. A bridge between the two realms appears, and it is there that Sakuna crosses paths with the "children of men." In the commotion that follows, the goddess and the waylaid mortals cause a great explosion that earns them the ire of the celestial ruler, Lady Kamuhitsuki. She exiles them to Hinoe Island, a mysterious place bordering the earth and heavens that Sakuna~s parents once called home, and commands them to reclaim the aptly titled ~Isle of Demons~ from the clutches of a monstrous horde. As the daughter of a warrior god and harvest goddess, Sakuna will rediscover her birthright in this untamed wilderness by weathering the elements, fighting monsters, and cultivating the soil. And by helping their immortal protector, the humans banished with her may yet find the reason to live that was stolen from them in the war-torn Lowly Realm. Together, these unlikely companions must join hands to tame both the soil and the demons of Hinoe Island.

Add this Nintendo Joy-Con to your Nintendo Switch console so friends can join in. Depending on the game, its two parts can be split or given to a second player, and it can be joined together or connected to the console for handheld play. Each part of this Nintendo Joy-Con has its own buttons, an accelerometer and a gyroscope for independent control.

Good with flaws
on December 18, 2020
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great controllers when new. They are a bit uncomfortable and small to play for extended periods. I recommend getting a good Switch grip like the "Mumba Blade."
The dreaded "joycon drift" is real, unfortunately. It does happen frequently. Buying a protection plan here is wise to protect your investment.

"Not as good as Animal Crossing"
on October 9, 2020
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this game for my wife who is a huge "Animal Crossing: New Horizons" fan. She had trouble getting into this game.
Her main complaint was that time moves too quickly in "Story of Seasons". Days are over in minutes and she felt rushed to get everything done she needed to for the day.
I honestly did not play it myself and this entire review is based on how my wife feels about the game. All that being said, I like the graphical style and I can see how others would absolutely fall in love with "Story of Seasons". It just wasn't for us.

Great classic 3D platformer

Game plays great on the Nintendo Switch so far and this is a must for SpongeBob fans.
The graphics look fine to me but I wished they were a tiny bit better. They aren't terrible, however, and I love that this was priced as a $30.00 release.

Accelerate your entire PC experience with the fast, powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 graphics card. Its award-winning NVIDIA Pascal architecture, powerful graphics engine, and state-of-the-art technologies give you the performance upgrade you need to drive today~s most demanding PC applications. Unleash your creativity with stunning HD video and picture editing and enjoy incredible gaming. Now, you can do it all 2X faster than with Intel Core i5 integrated graphics. You can even get easy driver updates and one-click game optimization with GeForce Experience.
 

Is there a way to install this in a W10/64 machine that has no current graphics card? If so, how do the drivers install?

Yes you can definitely install this into a Windows 10 machine. Windows will automatically get working drivers as long as you are connected to the Internet when you start the PC.

I would recommend downloading the GeForce Experience from the Nvidia site and letting it obtain the drivers afterwards and choose the "clean install" option. This is the easiest way to ensure that you have the latest drivers. I uninstall GeForce Experience once I'm done since I don't like bloatware.

Only at Best Buy Showcase part of your gaming collection in stunning fashion with this Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Metal Case. The high-quality metal construction protects against damage, and the multicolored exterior with multiple characters captures attention. This Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Metal Case features two interior clips to store an instruction manual and a secure location for disc storage
 

It looks like there are two disc holders on this. Why is this exclusively offered for the Nintendo Switch version if there is no cartridge holder (and not offered with the PS4 or Xbox One version)???

It comes with a plastic insert inside that will hold the Nintendo cartridge as well as the disc hubs to place the disc in for other versions.

Add a splash of color to your entertainment system with this Nintendo Joy-Con for Nintendo Switch. Its bright neon red and blue hues add a cheerful touch, and it lets you include another player in your games for competition or cooperation. This Nintendo Joy-Con can be separated into two parts for additional control options. Can be used by pairing wirelessly to Nintendo Switch 2. Cannot be attached to Nintendo Switch 2. A Nintendo Switch console or compatible accessory such as a Joy-Con charging grip or Joy-Con charging stand (two-way) is required for charging.
 

My current controllers aren't working properly. Can I pair a new set to my Nintendo switch?

Yes. The easiest way to pair these new Joycons is to just physically attach them to the desired system. They will pair immediately. Make sure to update them in the settings as well once attached.

Is this the blue(L) and red(R) set? Or is it the other way around. I see the pictures have both sets and do not specify which.

The ones I bought at the best buy store came with a LEFT RED and RIGHT BLUE. This is the opposite of the colors that come included with the neon blue and red switch console.
