Bought this because I wanted to use a Switch Pro Controller to play my PC games, and it works great. I also use it to pair to a Bluetooth speaker, and earbuds, as well as my phone. Haven't had any issues with it yet.

These earbuds are very comfortable to wear all day and cancel out noise really well. The battery life is supposedly 7 hours at 70% volume, but I've never had to turn them up close to that even when I'm using a noisy floor scrubber at work because the rubber tips cancel out noise so well. I use them solely at work and only charge them every few days. The audio quality is very nice for the price and they have decent low end so they are perfect for just listening to music, podcasts or watching video. There is zero delay between audio and video with these earbuds, unlike some other wireless earbuds around the same price. They fit very securely in my ears and do not fall out even when I was shaking my head vigorously, trying to get them to fall out, plus they come with a couple different size covers and extras of each. The volume and play/pause buttons were a little awkward to get use to pressing since they are on the part that is in your ear, especially the volume down since it is at the bottom of the ear piece so it has nothing to rest against when you press it, but I got used to holding it in a way when I pressed it pretty quickly.

I bought these to listen to music at work when I needed some wireless headphones. They are comfortable and have great sound quality, but when trying to watch video there is about a half second audio delay on an iPhone 7+. I can't say if the same thing happens on other phone models or not.

Had a $100 Best Buy gift card I got from my mother in law for Christmas, but there wasn't anything I really wanted at the time at Best Buy so I used it to get a $100 Steam wallet card and bought several games that I wanted on Steam that were on sale. Glad you can use gift cards to buy gift cards.

 Hyrule Warriors - Nintendo Wii U
Hyrule Warriors - Nintendo Wii U
The delicate balance of the Triforce has once more been rattled and the Hyrule Kingdom has been plunged into disarray thanks to a dark, menacing power led by the evil Sorceress Cia. The beautiful, innocent Princess Zelda has been cruelly captured and is being held prisoner against her will. It is up to you — as the brave and daring Link — to come to her rescue, battling large armies and ravaging entire legions in your pursuit to free Princess Zelda.Hyrule Warriors combines the intense, exhilarating gameplay and action of Dynasty Warriors with the well-loved characters and worlds of The Legend of Zelda series, allowing you to play as your favorite character from The Legend of Zelda, including Link, Zelda, Impa or Midna. Perform flashy moves to carve your way through huge groups of powerful enemies. Push back classic enemies and newly introduced enemies alone or play alongside a friend in local co-op mode, facing approaching armies together. Defend and recover recognizable landmarks from multiple games in The Legend of Zelda series, such as Hyrule Field and the Palace of Twilight. Progress through the epic storyline to unlock new playable characters that each feature their own unique moves and weapons. Rescue the captive Princess Zelda and showcase your warrior skills in the legendary Hyrule Warriors.
 
Fantastic addition to the Zelda franchise.

I was already excited about this game when I first heard it was in development, and it did not let me down. Fans of the Dynasty Warriors(DW) series will love this game, along with Zelda fans who have never played those titles before. The same team that made DW worked with Nintendo to develop this title and its controls and action feel just like it, but if you are used to LoZ controls they have the option to use that button layout. You can play as Link and a slew of other characters, both heroes and villains, each with multiple types of weapons, and use iconic items from the LoZ series.

 Mario Kart 8 - Nintendo Wii U
Mario Kart 8 - Nintendo Wii U
Players, start your engines. It's time to once again get on the racing circuit and compete against characters from the Mushroom Kingdom that you know and love. For the first time on the Nintendo Wii U console, you get to experience the racing action that has been a fan favorite for years, with a few added features to keep things interesting. So buckle up, push the pedal to the floor and get ready to turn this classic racing experience upside down.With new racing circuits, new gameplay features and a stunning new look, Mario Kart 8 certainly lives up to the legacy. The new anti-gravity feature will have you suddenly finding yourself racing on walls in a haunted mansion or upside-down over Princess Peach's castle — not to worry, the wheels on your kart will automatically rotate and shift into antigravity gear for an awesome racing element that allows mind-blowing new circuit designs. The previous games in the Mario Kart franchise introduced some amazing features, so they're back for more in Mario Kart 8. You can still see who's got what it takes in 12-player online competitive play. Hang gliders and motorbikes are back, as well as underwater racing and mid-air tricks, while Waluigi and Toadette rejoin the cast of characters. As the icing on the cake, the crisp, high-definition graphics and 60-frames-per-second frame rate of your Nintendo Wii U ensure a visually stunning and vibrant gameplay experience that you won't soon forget.

This game is amazing. From the new track designs and remade old tracks to the subtle details really make this game a winner. The blue shell apears often enough to keep things interesting but the chance has been reduced from older MK games. Plus the new super horn gives you a fighting chance against it.

What's great about it: Enjoyable gameplay with some challenging aspects and bosses. KONG letters, puzzle pieces to find. Some easy, some hidden
What's not so great: Nothing I can complain about. It fits with the original games very well.
I've been a big fan of the Donkey Kong series since the beginning when Rare was making them and always enjoyed when they added a new Kong each itteration. Cranky Kong is an iconic part of the old games and being able to play as him is a good experience. I hope they eventually make another Donkey Kong platformer like they did with DK64, because they are doing a fantastic job with bringing the feel of the old games back with updated art and concepts. I highly recommend picking up Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze.

Picked this bundle up because it is the best value right now. $90 in games included. The system has tons of features on it and the gamepad can be used as a remote for your TV and cable box. When viewing streaming content such as hulu, the gamepad displays info about the episode and actors. You can always use an SD card if you need more storage, but 32GB is plenty. The gamepad can be used as the main display for Wii U and Wii game and has the sensors build in for use with the Wiimotes so if someone needs the TV you can play straight on the gamepad! Has it's own speakers or a headphone jack if you don't want to disturb anyone. I would highly recommend getting this system. Nintendo always delivers.

How well with this perform with a PS4?

Got the Destiny Bundle and forgot my TV was analog only so looking for a cheap, temporary TV to use with it.
How well will this work with the system itself? And is there the game mode option for the TV?
I actually have two of these that I am using as PC monitors and they work great. It has all the necessary options to use it for any type of gaming setup with both both PC and game modes. Picture quality is fantastic.

My cable company will soon be encrypting its signal. Is the TV cablecard ready?

Converting to digital signal? All TVs made starting around 2008 or so have the digital receiver built in.

Does the back come with an AV input?

I can't see the colors on the back for the component it comes with. (red, yellow and white).
It has component inputs(red, blue, green) but the yellow video plug on RCA cables plugs into the red jack (I believe) and works just the same as it would if it was a yellow jack of the RCA.

Viewing angle

Can this tv be viewed by someone if the tv is above a cabinet and you are sitting lower and looking up at the tv, like in a kitchen.
I have 2 of these and use them as computer monitors and the viewing angles are pretty generous in any direction. Would definitely recommend them as the picture is great. One remote works both TVs at the same time as long as the receiver isn't being blocked.
