Great Kirby fighting game
on April 4, 2023
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
Kirby Fighters 2 is a great Switch game that follows up on the earlier 3DS release. There isn't much you are missing from that release that this game doesn't do better. With a wide range of abilities, you can choose from many incarnations of Kirby. You can fight head-to-head with another player ala Smash. Or you can fight the tower which has you battling your way to the top (Mortal Kombat style) against CPUs.

Good distopian movie
on April 4, 2023
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
Reminiscence is a movie that slipped under my radar until I found it on sale at Best Buy. The movie stars Hugh Jackman of course and features him as a man in a dystopian future who sells others the opportunity to view their past. He becomes intrigued by a strange woman (Rebecca Furgeson) who visits his shop and the story goes from there. The movie is good and reminds me of some of his earlier works like The Prestige.

Great material, weak presentation
on April 4, 2023
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
While I don't have a lot of familiarity with the source material, I had read that Valerian and it's comics were similar if not an inspiration to what would become George Lucas's original Star Wars. But from what I've seen this 2017 adaptation of the series wasn't widely well received. Watching the movie, the lead protagonist's performance falls fairly flat, with the actors displaying little to no emotion. The same can be said of Star Wars' original trilogy. Yet with Valerian, this is the only film we have in its universe and while the worlds are unique and interesting, the characters don't give us reason to care for what is being offered.
As far as the presentation, the movie looks and sounds great and is a movie to test any home theater setup. But the mediocre characters we are presented with will leave most not wanting to revisit this movie more than once.

High-quality Sephiroth FF amiibo. Looks great on the shelf next to Cloud. His sword stand out and are the first thing you'll notice when you see this amiibo as they nearly fill to the edge of the case. These current amiibo line have a lot of fine detail included in their face, fingers and clothing. A great pickup for fans of Final Fantasy or Smash.

Nice remaster of sorts
on April 4, 2023
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great remaster for games that are still modern. The new release features a better frame rate, enhanced visuals, ray tracing, etc. While this game was slightly controversial at release, coming in as a full-price remaster to an already modern game. Fortunately, if you own these games on PS4 there is an upgrade path of $10 if you don't want to rebuy. In my opinion, the upgrades are worth playing if you are a fan of this series or new to Uncharted. Though I really wish the original trilogy would have had this treatment first.

Beautiful remaster
on March 20, 2023
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
Metroid Prime on the Gamecube was a beautiful and well-optimized game. Famous for its lack of load screens and detailed rich environments. Now decades later Metroid Prime Remastered comes as a surprise (more or less) release for the Nintendo Switch. With visuals that are surprisingly faithful to the original game, the new title allows for a much richer experience that's fun for returning or casual players. With multiple control options, there is something for everyone. The only gripe I have is the lack of multiplayer options found in the original, but the single-player content more than makes up for it.

Kazuya in amiibo form looks true to the character with a lot of detail. The newer amiibo have a lot of attention to detail and the faces look great even down to the eyes. In-game grants you a companion fighter that adapts to your fighting style. Whether you are a Tekken or Smash fan this is a great collectible figure.

I picked this up on a whim after not hearing about it on it's initial release. Without spoilers, the story follows a man nearing retirement that is let go from his job unexpectedly. On the train ride home an unknown stranger offers him something but with strings attached.
The movie has you guessing all the way up to the end with a surprise twist. The movie looks and plays well in UHD with a great soundtrack. Highly recommended watch.

Great quality batteries. They seem to last as long as Rayovac batteries and general Energizer batteries. Obviously, a higher quality battery would last longer but they work great for devices like my front door lock that doesn't work well with rechargeables.

3 months in, 2 sticky buttons
By Thisisdumb from Chicago
That's pretty much it. 2 of the buttons stick, not because of a sticky substance, but because they aren't centered properly in the shell. You can feel them rub up against it, and they make audible noises when they're pushed from the unsticking. It is very annoying. Don't bother with their "refurbished" garbage.

Clean it
May 21, 2019
With any gaming controller if you take a clean toothbrush, slightly dampened with water and scrub around the buttons you should be able to fix this. Be sure to not use much water and then dry it when done. There is a rubber membrane under each button with a slight lip around the edge to prevent small amounts of water, dirt or soda from touching the circuitry. Scrubbing all sides of the button, maybe twice after rinsing the toothbrush should fix the problem. I've used this method to fix otherwise filthy game controllers without needing to resort to opening them to clean them.

Smart reason I returned mine. This should have been branded that is for "YouTube or Twitch Streaming ONLY". So many reviewers got this camera yet of dozens of reviews only one I saw mentioned this. VR and other functions of the other games won't support this camera. This seems like a huge oversight, so hopefully this changes in a firmware update. But for now if you don't stream, skip this peripheral.

Charge or display your Xbox Wireless Controllers with this officially licensed Dual Charging Station that eliminates the cost of replacement batteries. Included are four battery doors (two for Xbox Series X|S / two for Xbox One) plus two 1100 mAh rechargeable batteries for up to 40 hours of gameplay*. To charge, simply click controller down on the Charging Station and monitor for LED color change from amber to white. When fully charged, click up to store. Focus on the game and not on your battery life.
 

Do these batteries also charge via the USB-C port on the controller? It would be a nice addition for if you only have one controller to charge as you play.

Will I be able to connect this to a Nintendo switch lite?

You would need a third party bluetooth adapter to connect in the USB charge port on the bottom of the Switch Lite. I'm not fully certain these work on the Lite over the standard Switch. So no it won't work natively.

My recommendation is the Switch Pro controller. Though if you're on a budget the PowerA wireless controller is cheaper dealing, missing some features like rumble, a built in 48 hr battery, and amiibo support, but is an otherwise solid $40 remote that occasionally goes on sale.

I recently bought this controller for my Xbox one and went to set it up when I got home with my rechargeable batteries, but they don’t seem to work. Did they make it to where older rechargeable batteries don’t work with the new controllers?

The form factor of the back is slightly different so you'll need a new charger as the back cover is different. That said older rechargeable packs can be charged separately and then installed in the controller.
Another option is to buy a new Xbox Series rechargeable battery pack (using the cover the controller came with) an then charge it via USB-C. This time around there are two sets of battery pins inside. I'm guessing that it won't charge older packs or rechargeable AA batteries via USB-C so that people wouldn't damage their controller by accidentally charging standard AA batteries, hence the second set of charging pins.

Can this controller charge two rechargeable AA batteries if I connect a USB-C cable?

So I tested this myself, and No it does not work. The Xbox Series controller has terminals for standard or rechargeable AA batteries to power the controller. But this time there are some smaller pins for a rechargeable battery pack and these will charge a battery from the USB-C port. But as they are between where AA batteries (rechargeable or not) sit they won't charge rechargeable AA batteries. My guess is this decision was made so that someone didn't inadvertently try to "recharge" non-rechargeable AA batteries as that would be a problem.

You can quiet them and turn on subtitles. I get it, some of the Scottish accents are pretty thick and hard to understand. No offense to anyone, I'm sure they think the same of some of us Americans.
