A nice first entry for the PS4. This game looks nextgen all the way. Play is still tight and solid but for me personally the series has sort of worn thin.

In a world where stickers are blended into every aspect of life, nothing could ruin the annual Sticker Fest more than that rascal Bowser stealing the six Royal Stickers and hiding them throughout the world. Your only choice is to save the day, and of course, you could never let Bowser get the best of you. Hidden secrets, magical mysteries, and action-packed adventures wait around every paper-made turn in your quest to return the Royal Stickers to their rightful place.Experience traditional action battles and a quest for hidden items in the unique world of Paper Mario. Stuck on him and his ruffian underlings, the stickers have been scattered across deserts, mountains, prairies, forests and volcanoes and your only hope of returning them to the festival is to enlist the help of Kersti, the sticker fairy. By paper-izing the world and flattening it out, you encounter stickers that are incorporated into every aspect of gameplay in a 3D setting that resembles an entire world made of shoebox dioramas. Build up your arsenal of items and attacks and get your sticker fix by buying them in shops, peeling them off their environment or even making your own to store in a notebook for later use. The full cast of colorful characters along with the intriguing paperscape of Mario's world will have you enthusiastically diving into this 3D universe for an epic quest to save Sticker Fest.

It's Paper Mario for the 3DS and it was on sale for 1/2 price so I got it for $20. Great game, but Best Buy doesn't do a great job of advertising these type sales. They often last for less than a week or get sold out quick. I also got Sly Cooper for PS3 w/ Vita download code on sale like this for $30 at one point. Just watch the gaming sites/blogs for you system and you will catch these deals. Also a big fan of Reward Zone Gamer club. For $15 a year you get a decent magazine and every month you get great coupons...Already paid for itself.

Got this one on sale to use in a new inexpenisve system build. Price was better at retail than newegg's online price so no compaints. Usually go with Segate as they are NCQ compatible (for raid use) and have better standard warrenty than WD or other brands

ASUS USB-AC53 Nano USB Wifi Adapter delivers an instant Plug and Play providing 802.11ac Wifi standard for desktops and laptops. The dual-band wireless AC1200 USB adapter features 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity coupled with MU-MIMO technology.
 

What speed are you able to get with this through a USB 2.0 port? USB 2.0 is rated up to 480 mbps, but usually you don't get this level of throughput due to a variety of factors.

Not sure as I used it on USB3 which is does support on USB3 with a decent newer WIFI router I was able to connect 802.11AC @ 896mb. So it was zippy. USB2 actual throughput is about 1/2 of what is specified so you will likely get about 240mb/sec via USB2

The NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi 5 Router with external antennas delivers extremely fast WiFi. With AC1750 WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet speeds, and high-powered external antennas, this router offers ultimate performance in wireless coverage for large homes with 12 or more wireless devices. It gets 3x faster access than similar 802.11n.
 

Will the router handle fire stick Or roku?

I wouldn't see why not. They should be operating on standard wifi this router supports 802.11ABCN which is about every standard. The wifi bandwidth on the router is great so should be no problem streaming HD or even multiple HD as long as your internet speed is fast.

Display, charge and play on your Nintendo Switch console with this Insignia dock kit. Its charging port with USB 2.0 output powers a controller and any other compatible device, and its HDMI cable connects your Switch to an HDTV. This Insignia dock kit includes a USB-C AC adapter for power outlet charging.
 

Does this device let you play in table top mode if you unplug the hdmi cable but still charge the Switch and play at the sametime?

It will not (that is one feature the Nyko supports). The power supply will work to charge you Switch so if you use a stand like the Hori one then at least you can use this charger when in portable mode.

The Samsung Countertop Microwave makes preparing multiple dishes effortless with 1.4 cu. ft. capacity. Designed with a scratch-resistant interior, this modern microwave features Sensor Cooking options which automatically provide optimal cooking results.
 

How hard is the OPEN button to push? How noisy is the door when closing it? Is the light bulb situated so we can change it ?(GE's you need a technician to replace theirs)

On the Black-Stainless model (which really only has stainless on the edge trim) the button works quite nicely. Easy to push. I noticed on just the straight black version the button was not as smooth. The door seems to close quietly and smoothly. Overall I was quite impressed with the build quality of what is otherwise an inexpensive unit. The light is decent and comes on when opening the door (some unit do not). Not sure what has to be done to change it.

Would this fit in my HD bay on my 2008 intel imac?

Just wanted to know for sure if this would fit. My previous HD dimensions were 3.5 x 1 . This product is 4 x .5 .
It will fit 3.5 x 1 is the form factor and 4x5 must be the actual inches of the external case if it is a 3.5 inch hard drive bay this should fit.

Warantee discrepancy

Website says 5 years, inside the box it says 2 years... what's the deal?
Seagate only does 5 years on server line HDs which generally cost more. 2 years is still pretty generous as most other manufactures have gone to 1 year on desktop hard drives.

Is this Win 7 64bit compatible

The Barracuda 1TB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive 7200rpm 32meg buffer is this compatible with Win 7 64bit
Sure if you motherboard supports SATA this drive will work fine with Win7 x64

dell dimension 8400

will this hard drive be compatible...i am already upgrading my memory to 4gb...thanx
As long as your computer/mother board supports SATA (Serial ATA HD) it should support this drive. All newer SATA drives work with older SATA standards so even if you have a stat 1.5gb controller it will work fine with newer SATA 3 or 6 drives. Sometimes older BIOSes will only support 2TB but you should be fine as this is a 1TB drive. If you have the older IDE connecter (a wide flat ribbon cable) then you will need a PATA drive which you may have to order online as they are getting pretty rare at the stores.
