Amazing amiibo

Banjo and Kazooie look great in amiibo form! It was amazing to have them added to Smash over a year ago and now to finally have this Rare duo return in amiibo form with so much detail.

This Terry amiibo was worth the wait. The level of detail is incredible including the texture on his pants and the worn look on his shirt and pants. Great addition to my Smash amiibo collection.

Great game
on April 8, 2021
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
So after being lucky enough to grab a PS5 last year (from GameStop of all places, in a bundle), I ran into a drought of games to play on the system. I saw Fortnite was updated graphically for the PS5 so I thought I'd try it out. I was surprised at how fun the game was, especially the single player "Save the World" mode. I know I'm late to this 2017 game, but having started just after Christmas 2020, I'm having fun with the game and friends online. This DLC has been on sale recently, and I was able to buy it in online from Best Buy for the same price. Great if your into DC characters like Joker and Poison Ivy, as well as the Midas character (non-reactive like his other counterpart that turns in game weapons to a gold skin). But it's also nice as a collector to have a physical case for this game in my collection, even if it doesn't include an actual disk.

Monster Hunter Rise is an action RPG that will transport players to the colorful Kamura Village, an all-new serene mountain locale that attracts visitors with its unique culture and innovative hunting technologies. After hunters equip their armor and select from one of the various weapon types, all-new hunting grounds await, including the ancient Shrine Ruins and more. As players defeat monsters and progress through the game, items from fallen foes can be used to craft unique weapons and armor that will increase their chances of future success and survival. Hunters can tackle these challenges solo, or with up to three other players in local or cooperative online play. Evolving the Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Rise will provide players with an inventive set of new tools to track down and defeat threatening monsters. For the first time ever in a Monster Hunter game, wire-based grappling actions can be performed by using a ~Wirebug~ while standing or in mid-air, adding an all-new level of aerial maneuverability to hunting strategies and attacks. The game will also debut new hunting partners called Palamutes, personalized and rideable ~Canyne~ companions that will provide players with a new set of attack options, while ~Felyne~ Palicoes will return as support characters for actions like healing.

Great product, limited supply

Verified Purchase:Yes
Monster Hunter is a great game in the series, even for newcomers. The Collector's edition features the game with a leaflet code for the Deluxe content as well as the large Magnamalo amiibo. The game is great even without the extras, but if you are lucky enough to find this edition it's well worth the pickup.

Taxi Madness is a casual arcade racing game where you select one of a wide range of unlockable cabs, each of whom has different attributes: the strong muscle car, the superfast exotic supercar, the corner-drifting Japanese tuner, an American classic from the ~60s and more: Taxi Mayhem has them all. Your goal is to try and earn big cab fares, by picking up any customers and dropping them off at their destination spots as fast as possible before you run out of time! However, beware: most customers are a little crazy. Explore a vast city with many New York inspired locations, find shortcuts, drift through corners like a pro, take impossible jumps, aggressively bash your way through traffic hour and earn good money while doing so!

Decent Crazy Taxi successor
on March 1, 2021
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
This game seemed to come out of nowhere when I first heard about it from a YouTuber, RGT85. Apparently, it is a spiritual successor to the Sega classic, "Crazy Taxi". It's also not developed or published by Sega, with the exception of in Japan where Sega is indeed publishing it.
The game is available on both Switch and PS4 (PS5), and at the time of writing looks about the same on each console. I grabbed the PS4 version as the Switch version had sold out. It is currently the same price in physical or digital format, so I opted for a copy to add to my library. That said the game seems to load textures further out faster on PS4, though on Switch it just swaps lower for higher resolution textures as you drive closer to objects like building windows. This is a feature most games use, especially those on Switch to conserve RAM memory.
Visually like I said it's currently running at a somewhat low resolution, I would assume between 720p and 1080p, where on PS4 Pro or PS5 you would assume it could handle at least 1080p or better.
Gameplay wise, it plays very similar "Crazy Taxi", with the addition of being able to have your car jump. This extra jump option, while unrealistic in this already unrealistic arcade style point to point racer, is actually pretty convenient. The controls are great and if you were a fan of "Crazy Taxi" you should feel right at home in this game.
Sound. The game has a fairly limited rock track that can get old quickly. There is no Green Day here. Also while the new character voices offer a lot of dialog during your trips, many offer the same dialog all too frequently with a lot of repetition.
At a $30 title, I'm willing to overlook some of the game's flaws like its lower resolution visuals and repetitive customer chatter. The core gameplay is where this game shines for that I can easily recommend the game to anyone wanting to give it a try.

I saw these coins at Best Buy one day while browsing through Switch games. At first, I thought they must have been an add-on for the Mario 3D Collection game, they are instead a stand-alone commemorative coin set that looks great in or out of its package.

Overpromised but okay game
on March 1, 2021
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
So much can and has already been said about Cyberpunk. Obviously, the game was promised to be this huge, beautiful, open-world game where player choice mattered. What we got was another story. On PC, providing you have a powerful PC, the visuals can be amazing. On Xbox One and PS4, it's a different thing, broken, unplayable at parts. On Series X and PS5, it still looks terrible, but runs smoother, despite having terrible flaws and bugs. Also despite being "open-world", the game is insanely linear with extremely limited player choice.
Patches have been promised through the remainder of the year, with a Series X and PS5 patch due out at the end of the year.
I've played maybe 15 hours into the game and have decided to just shelf the game until later this year. With game-breaking and save bugs, I'd rather just wait on this game we've already been waiting nearly a decade for already. Hopefully, it can pull a "No Man's Sky" style return to form, but I'm not holding out much hope of that.

Great extra storage solution
on March 1, 2021
Posted by: Nico07
Verified Purchase:Yes
USB external hard drives aren't a flashy piece of tech, but their benefits are huge. Personally, I am using this drive on an Xbox Series X for storage of my Xbox One library. I had recently outgrown a 4TB drive and the 1TB internal storage on my One X was maxed out, so 8TB on sale was the next logical jump. Being able to hold your library and GamePass games locally is great. Load times are good, but obviously not as great as SSD.
As a spinning HDD, there will be some drive noise. Mine was sitting on an entertainment cabinet shelf and just having the drive on was noticeable. I then found that if I bore out a hole behind the cabinet and lay the drive on its side on top of some styrofoam tape, the drive noise is all but gone. Obviously, everyone's situation varies, but for me, this was a fairly easy fix.
I also have two of these drives that I've shucked and am using in a RAID configuration in a personal server at home. In that scenario, they are pretty quiet, as they are in a cool basement closet, and have been in use for about a year and a half now.
I can easily recommend these drives to anyone looking for additional space.

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.

Nico07's Questions
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.

Is it confirmed that the Arcade1up NBA Jam with wifi cabinet does indeed come with a light up deck protector?
Yes, Best Buy's NBA JAM cabinet has the light up deck protector. It lights up from a button press in the upper right corner. Can select between about six colors as well as one that flows between them or you can simply power it off. The effect is pretty cool with some parts of the deck printed on the plexiglass in white like P1, P2, pass, etc able to light up and be easily seen. This version is pretty cool.

How much does Best Buy charge to set the arcade game up ?
Not sure, though Geek Squad may offer a service. This is similar to easier IKEA furniture to setup. Basically should take 1-2 hours to setup. Requires no glue just a Philip's and maybe flat head screwdriver. I've setup over eight of these and the only tricky part is the monitor brackets. Just loosely tighten them until fully in place then tighten them down. Aside from that everything else can tighten down as installing (just don't overtighten as this is pressboard). Also you may need to be a ninja at chopping the box apart to recycle it. Its large but similar to a large television in size.

You get all of the above. Moana 4K steelbook includes the 4K UHD bluray (with HDR), the standard HD bluray, and a digital code for Movies Anywhere. On Movies Anywhere you can view it in 4K Dolby Vision (the best digital format), HD, or even SD. This all depends on what television, streaming device, and internet service you have. So long as you have a bluray player or method of streaming it and or plan to upgrade to 4K in the future you can buy this now and not need to purchase any new media in the future. Well at least until the inevitable 8K version someday...

Yep, the Switch Lite will play all games the original Switch can with a few exceptions like 1-2-Switch requiring additional joy-con controllers. And the Labo series are incompatible as they can't house the Switch Lite for playing their games.

Minecraft is a game about placing blocks and going on adventures.Explore randomly generated worlds and build amazing things from the simplest of homes to the grandest of castles. Play in creative mode with unlimited resources or mine deep into the world in survival mode, crafting weapons and armor to fend off the dangerous mobs.
I'm buying a Switch Lite, which I'm almost positive plays Switch games, but I'm wondering how many megabytes of storage it takes.
The base game is fairly small taking around 512MB. Either way this game requires 1GB save files for every profile that plays the game. These block off storage for level creations that are unfortunately like all other save data locked to the internal 32GB storage. This is a problem if you have kids with multiple friends that play with them. Even though these friends dont save levels they need local profiles that lock off 1GB each for this game until you delete them.
Owning this game on physical is nice so that with multiple consoles you can share between them. The better feature is that you can then download the new cross platform game that doesn't block off 1GB per user but rather just what you save so save file sizes are rather small.

Does the Nintendo Switch version have infinite generating worlds like in Java edition on PC? Or is the world generation limited?
Yes it's based off of the Java version. If you own this version of the game you can download a free copy of the newer game that is crossplatform.

Can you play two players on one console?
You can play up to four players via split screen though you will need additional controllers for anyone beyond the first player. Also this game cannot be played with a single joy-con, you'll need both or a Pro controller for each player.
