Good storage for PS5.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent storage for a PS5 upgrade. I don’t fear that I’ll run out soon, and the speed is excellent. The only thing you’ll need is a compatible heat sink for use with the PS5. Can be found easily at the largest online retailer with a quick search.

OLED at the top of its game. From the big game to being in the game, no detail goes unseen. With advanced gaming technology like NVIDIA G-SYNC, you'll crush the competition. Self-lit pixels emit their own light for perfect black, intense color and stunning picture~paired with our best processor for even better picture quality. Only on OLED.

Amazing picture
on January 1, 2022
Posted by: John
Verified Purchase:Yes
Absolutely the best tv I’ve used. The picture is superb, and although it took a little time to tinker in the menus to get things to look the way I like, it was well worth it. PS5 games look great, and so do Xbox series X. Sub 4k content looks great as well for both the switch, and satellite. Can’t wait for more 120hz content, especially for sports.

Daughter has fun coloring this one and making her pictures appear on screen. The only thing I don’t like is that if you have a case for your iPad, you have to remove it to allow the osmo hardware to fit.

DEATHLOOP is a next-gen first person shooter from Arkane Lyon, the award-winning studio behind Dishonored. In DEATHLOOP, two rival assassins are trapped in a mysterious timeloop on the island of Blackreef, doomed to repeat the same day for eternity. As Colt, the only chance for escape is to end the cycle by assassinating eight key targets before the day resets. Learn from each cycle - try new paths, gather intel, and find new weapons and abilities. Do whatever it takes to break the loop.

A fun Lego set I put together with my son. He does a great job of following the instructions. I really wish these Lego sets had the paper manuals to use instead of making me use my phone. I understand these are intended be played with in conjunction with an app, but sometimes my kids just want to build them.

They’re good when they work, but I’m having issues adding them to my wife’s phone. It says Max limit reached. I don’t have any other air tags on the device, but the phone has other family member devices listed there. Should be easier to do.

Patch breaks the game - look online firsg

Verified Purchase:Yes
Currently I can’t play this. I installed it, then the 30+gb patch, and I get a “cannot play this” error. It’s a known glitch, and there is a workaround. But I don’t want to reinstall the game and the update. My ISP has a data cap. I’ll wait for them to send another update and then eventually I may play the game.

Wemo WiFi Smart Plug is smaller than ever and gives you total control over your lights and devices. Turn them on and off from anywhere using the Wemo app or by using your voice with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant.* You can also set schedules and timers for lights and devices. Or use Away Mode to randomly turn lamps on and off when you~re not home. Sync lights connected to the Smart Plug with the sunset and you~ll never have to come back to a dark home. Smart Plug~s extra-small design~45% smaller than the previous model~won~t cover both outlets, freeing up the second outlet for a second Smart Plug to connect fans, lamps, and other devices.

Relive the joy of classic gaming with this SEGA Genesis Mini game console. This replica includes a variety of 40 built-in games such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Castlevania: Bloodlines, Shining Force and Gunstar Heroes to excite fans and first-time players. This plug-and-play SEGA Genesis Mini game console comes with two USB-connected wired controllers and an HDMI cable for compatibility with HDTVs.
 

Will you be able to add more games somehow. Most retro systems let you add more games via SD card or memory stick. Will you be able to do that through the USB port for the controller??

I haven’t seen anything that suggests you will be able to do that.

Is there a physical card for this download? I want to give this as a Christmas gift.

It’s no longer valid for the time you’re asking as this was for a Christmas gift, but I know that now there is a physical card available.
