Jump into a new Yoshi adventure in a world made of everyday objects - like boxes and paper cups! As Yoshi, you~ll leap up high, gulp down enemies, and set out on a treasure hunt to find all the different collectables. On the flip side, stages can be played backwards, providing new perspectives to explore and new ways to locate some of the more craftily hidden items! It all started when Kamek and Baby Bowser set out to steal a gem-set stone. Legend has it that this fabled artifact can grant the bearer their wildest dreams! But when the artifact~s gems are sent flying, it falls upon Yoshi and friends to find them. Luckily, saving the day can be cooperative and challenging. Pass a Joy-Con controller to a friend to team up as fellow Yoshis. Also, Mellow mode gives Yoshi wings for a breezier experience, which may come in handy! Finding all the flowers, coins, and Poochy Pups is no small feat! For extra protection, suit up in one of the handicraft costumes you can unlock in-game!

Great Yoshi game
on April 8, 2019
Posted by: Nico07

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought into this game after really enjoying Yoshi's Wooly World on Wii U (and 3DS). Yoshi games offer a decent amount of challenge comparable to Kirby games, but are typically a little less so than a good Mario title. The challenge in this game is more in exploring stages well enough to locate each of the stages roughly six to eight flowers and 20 red coins. You'll need the flowers to progress to new worlds, and (mild spoiler) there are a few worlds that will require more of these to reach once you beat the game.
Graphically the game looks great running on the Unreal engine. Everything takes on a paper craft look with Yoshi looking more like a stuffed animal. As you earn coins in game you will use them exclusively to buy capsules that contain unique paper craft costumes that work as a bonus health shield in game. Capsules and costumes are random but if you buy all capsules from a particular machine you will eventually unlock all that machine has to offer with no duplicates. So while the costumes are random it's not a blind bag situation and all costumes are eventually unlocked.
The only complaint I can level against the game is the soundtrack. It does offer some great music with unique songs, but soooo many levels play the same main theme song with only light alterations. Main stages, spooky stages, all use the same melody.
All around I highly recommend the game. If you love exploration in games and mild to moderate challenge this game is great with a lot of content to offer. Once you've beaten a stage you are able to go back and find three "Poochies" playing the stage in reverse with the opposite perspective. You'll also be tasked by a few in game characters of finding special objects in stages after you've played through the stage once. Then trying to find enough coins to unlock all costumes or all costumes you want adds a lot of replayability to this fun game. Just be aware the soundtrack uses the same melody over and over again but in slightly nuanced ways.

Fun follow-up to Far Cry 5
on March 29, 2019

from Layton, UT
Verified Purchase:Yes
New Dawn is a great title and story follow-up to Far Cry 5. It runs great on Xbox One and One X. The map is the same as the original game but impacted by the events of the original. It's a great game especially if you wanted more after playing through Far Cry 5. Just don't expect anything ground-breaking feature-wise going into it.

Piranha Plant is a nice addition to the Smash Bros Ultimate game. He's a great wild card addition to the game that was only open to players until the end of January 2019 but will return later this year. At least in amiibo form he adds a cool contender to the already large roster.

Amazing show even today
on February 8, 2019
Posted by: Nico07
from Layton, UT
Verified Purchase:Yes
I remember watching this movie back after it was available to rent and enjoying it. But after buying it now on bluray some 19 years after it's theatrical release it's still a great movie today. The movie has a great 1080p picture for this 2007 original release. Some of Disney's other movies in this time period suffered from heavily softened images (Count of Monte Cristo) to the point of looking like a DVD transfer. The audio quality is also great with good use of the rear speakers in ball games, but almost unused in dialog heavy portions of the film.
The message I feel is also great in this film dealing with the issues of racism and segregation even in 1971. But the film's message isn't condescending or hateful in it's approach to the topic, but rather focuses on the need for brotherly love and respect in order a society where these issues had built up to a boiling point. The cast and crew in the movie are also excellent all around with many going on to larger roles after this film. There are a lot of great sports films, but this is perhaps my all time favorite (although the Rocky movies are quite good).

Luigi's Mansion plays great on the 3DS, especially the New 3DS and 2DS with the directional nub. Visually with 3D it looks good and the addition of a two player boss battle mode (with one cartridge) is a nice feature.

1 out of 53 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.
