 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.

What's great about it: Finally came out, graphics
What's not so great: easily beaten
So glad this finally came out, but I would have to say it was not worth the wait. Mario Kart are my favorite games and I look forward to every new one that comes out. There wasnt too much "new" about this game to be that excited about. I got all the 3 stars, unlocked all characters, modes and got all the stamps in 11 days. Battle mode is great with friends, and I love the new highlight reel with slow down and rewind.

What's great about it: almost everything
What's not so great: no AC plug in the rear
Love it. great receiver with tons of inputs and features. yes, i do notice the brief screen scramble that other people talk about when switching between devices sometimes; but it is a fraction of a second, and doesnt effect anything. bluetooth, MHL, SEN, Pandora, wifi connected; Love it. the only thing that i was really disappointed in, is that it does not have an AC plug in the rear to give power to other devices; such as a subwoofer. my old Sony receiver had that, and so my subwoofer would turn on/off with the receiver. now i have to manually switch on the subwoofer. otherwise, love it, and adds to compatibility of all my other Sony products.

What's great about it: the only way to get 4k content
What's not so great: price, little content, connectivity options, download time.
this is a great device that is currently the only way to get 4k content; if that wasnt the case i would return it. the amount of movies and shows that are available is very little. and the prices are just absolutely ridiculous. $40 for just one movie. the free content that is advertised as "coming with" the device, you actually have to download to the device before you are able to watch it, and the download times are extremely long. if the clips are under about 10 minutes, they seem to download immediately. but it took almost four hours to download a 15 minute video. it is only compatible with certain Sony tvs, but what they dont tell you is that it has to be plugged into a specific HDMI input to work. otherwise, it says that it is not compatible. i have a sony 4k receiver, and a sony 4k tv with only one cable going to my tv; so i just change inputs on the receiver to switch between devices. but my only option with this device is to plug it directly into the tv, into a specific HDMI input; which isnt ideal because my cables go through the wall. this is at most a $100 device, based on the cost of the content. not worth the $500 i paid for it with pre-order, certainly not worth $700. Outside of all that, it is a great looking device, with a cool remote, works properly and adds to all of my Sony products.

What's great about it: sound, features
What's not so great: in my opinion, nothing
excellent speaker that gets really loud. has a unique kickstand that pops out. different sound features to set to your liking. battery lasts a long time, or you can just plug in. NFC, great portability. no complaints here.

What's great about it: mirrors everything
What's not so great: adjusting the picture size
as long as your device is compatible, this will mirror everything on your device to the connected TV. easy setup, easy connecting. I am a DISH customer; so instead of paying extra to have Joeys in the other rooms, I use this to connect my phone or tablet. And using the Dish Anywhere app, I can watch live TV or any of my DVR recordings. A con is that, unlike Chromecast, you cannot use your device for anything else, because it mirrors exactly what you are doing. Another con is the how you have to adjust the settings. You have to long press a button on the device to enter the setup mode, connect your device to it, then visit a webpage to adjust the settings. So, if you need to adjust the picture size that is being displayed, you have to do this process, and you cant see your changes happen; you have to wait to connect it again to see if the picture is the right size. On top of that, if you use different devices, the picture size will be different for each device. A huge time waster.

What's great about it: it works
What's not so great: doesnt last long in our experience
Good ink, decent price, easy to install. It just doesnt last very long in our experience. We dont print things very often and we find that these cartridges get low very quick. Not sure if it is the printer always running "tests" and using up ink.

What's great about it: the fit, protection, "smart" capability
What's not so great: stand feature
It is an Apple made case, so it fits perfectly. And the smart feature is useful. But we have had the hardest time with the "stand" aspect. I am pretty tech savvy, and I can't get it to stay standing up on its own, even on a flat surface. So it is kind of useless for that function, especially if you are trying to use a Bluetooth keyboard to type.

Can I use Netgear Push2TV to connect my HDTV to my Toshiba All in One computer as a second monitor

I have a Toshiba All in One computer that has HDMI in but no out. The TV has an HDMI port (I just purchased both). I am told I can't use the HDMI connection to make the TV a second monitor because I don't have HDMI out. My computer has Intel WiDi and I am wondering if I use the Netgear Push2TV if it will make my TV the second monitor I want. Also, can I use the Windows 8.1 extended screen mode or will I only be able to duplicate the screen? Thank you, I appreciate your time.
if you have intel WIDI, then you should be able to connect to this. And there should be different display options, not just duplicate screen. We have intel WIDI on our laptop, and we have been able to use it for what you are asking. but, we have had all kinds of issues with the WIDI. i dont know if it is our laptop, but sometimes the software just "breaks" and it wont even open up, and you try and download it again and it doesnt work properly. again, not sure if it is just us, if we have an older version or something. our laptop is about 5 years old.
