New Tech

Nintendo has now shown off its new console, and it looks wonderful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lxNHhgMuTg&t It is coming out this July 28th at a price of $149.99 I cannot wait for this!

Magearna is now obtainable in Pokemon Sun and Moon by simply scanning a qr code (it will never expire so no worries about trying to enter it by a certain time), all you need to do is beat the elite 4, and it will then be obtainable with the qr code. You can check out the page here  Magearna Enjoy!

Hello everyone who may stumble upon this, I'm here to tell you I just purchased a Moto G3 from Virgin Mobile and it runs Pokemon GO quite well with one issue, you cannot use AR mode because it does not contain a gyroscope. The gps tracking works great, the in app performance is good, and everything seems just fine so far!  

Get Killzone SF for only 19.99, save over 13$ before the price increases back to ~34.99

Everyone has eagerly awaited the wiikeyu to play their fake....I mean "legit" copies of wii u games, but where have the people over at wiikey been? Its been months and months since their last update with promise of products shipping August, and its November with no word from them.  Was this all a hoax or was it a legal problem, or was it just some other completely random reason we will never know? I hope we will hear something before the end of the year, and I hope its something promising.

Recently the website wiikey.com updated to say they have news and preorders coming for the wiikeyu in the following weeks. After not updating for almost a year they finally have some good news for people who want to hack their wiiu! Its to be seen if it is official or if its just fluff but some more .iso files have been put on thepiratebay, including The Wind Waker HD.

Just Cause 2: 40-60 fps on high/very high TF2/CSS/GMod: 60 fps Highest Chivalry: ~45 High/Highest Natural Selection: 20-30fps Medium (It doesnt like this for some reason) Warhammer 40k: 60+ High Valley Benchmark: 9-17 fps Highest avg 12 fps Any game older then 2009 should run without any difficulties at all on high (not sure about crysis yet) other games should run great, newer games should run well on medium settings. Also remember this is an extremely budget build with some of the cheapest parts you can possibly buy More to come, I just have super slow internet so testing is kinda hard ...

Here is the list of ordered parts, you will realize there is a problem with them, in the fact the case is to small for the motherboard, but I am making modifications to allow it to fit, and if Its not the best I will use a snazzy old 1998 desktop case for that quality, high performance look, heh. Motherboard  Fm2 1 PCI-E 2.0 16x CPU  3.6ghz Dual Core Case (To be changed)  + 250W PSU RAM  Single stick to start off this build GPU  6670 2gb (Link is only for 1gb) End price ~250$ I am not exactly sure what the performance of this build will be, but its not going to be amazing, but its a budget build so we will see. Benchmarks to come once I get all the pieces, stay tuned!

In lieu of Christmas and a new year, I hope you get everything you wanted, and hope this next year is the best yet! Have a great one guys.

Hello everyone, Just recently I ordered some parts to build a budget build thats sized like a micro ATX, The parts list; Motherboard: MSI-FM2-A55-E33 CPU: A6-5600k GFX: 6670 2gb Case: Mini ATX RAM: 4gb 1600mhz Corsair PSU: Generic 250W (Getting replaced asap) Will review real soon, stay tuned for more!! :)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I recently purchased a ps4 and wanted to share my feelings about its "worth" to everyone. I purchased the 499$ bundle which came with Battlefield 4 and a years worth of PSN+, I luckily snagged an order the launch day on amazon so I was only a few days behind the rest of people. After getting it surprisingly fast (ordered friday got to my house on monday), I plugged it in and booted it up. What came next was interesting, a decent amount of people had hdmi issues, or they had other issues including getting a console dead on arrival. My console during setup had some issues, at least with the hdmi cable that it came with it, I had a slight heart attack as my signal went from clear to fuzz to clear again. I switched the provided cable with my wii-u's gray cable and it works perfectly! I have had only a single freeze in my whole playing experience which beats my ps3, and so far no overheating or other issues. Now should you get it? If the fear of something going wrong with th...

Hey everyone thought id post and give you the opportunity to check out my other blog where I review games! I just recieved a ps4 and I plan on reviewing Contrast, Battlefield 4, Warframe, and Blacklight. If you would like to check that out visit http://dansgamereview.blogspot.com/ More new tech info to come! (My controller with its super dust attracting base)

A new take on circuits, this simple roller-ball pen allows you to draw on paper and create circuits in seconds. Similar products are not nearly as functional on normal paper because of how long they take to dry, and how much product you actually have to use making the circuits. The price for a single pen is 20$ which is a bit expensive for a single pen but it should last a good while!

Imagine you live in the middle of nowhere or you are travelling into a rural area, you dont expect to have internet access right? Well now a few companies including google have developed systems using balloons and high speed internet containers to provide internet practically anywhere its needed. This can be very helpful after disasters, providing a connection in hard to reach areas and has tons of other applications.

The Google Chromecast is for the people who want to turn their ordinary flat screen tv into a smart tv, so sorry for everyone still using those big ol' crt tvs (thats me). The dongle is $35 and is very small, including the hdmi extender and charging cable. This little device will be able so stream content from your mobile devices or directly from your chrome browser on a pc/mac. Opinions: I personally don't think most should get this unless they are a die hard fan of chrome and google for the fact that you can get android computers with a very similar form factor, expandable memory, extra ports, and most likely a faster processor for only about double the price. Android hdmi dongles have been around for awhile now and are pretty popular and effective so I don't really see to much of a point to the chromecast but its still young and could have some tricks up its sleeves.

Do you have a gratuitous amount of friends and hope to keep track of them? Well the Ps4 is allowing 2000 friends on your list for an unparamounted amount of companions. This is vastly more than any previous console on the market, including steam which is on the pc. It should be interesting if they eventually change the amount or if they will keep the very high number, I guess we'll just have to wait and see but I hope they keep 2000 :D

You like google glass? You on a budget like most of humanity? Well GlassUp is a viable option for you! GlassUp is similar to google glass but a big difference is going to be the price! Each device has the ability to connect to the internet and give you directions to locations, show you incoming messages, and tons of internet connected options. Sadly the GlassUp does not come with a camera, but it is half the price so if its an issue you might want to go for google glass. The producers of GU are willing to make a new model with more advanced features in the future if their current model is a success which it should be. You do not have to look to the right to read your messages, but they appear right in the center of your vision, not too intrusive as there is opacity set to the text but it allows you to continue with your work instead of looking off to the side which if you are doing very sight intensive work this might be very handy to have. I for one cant wait to see some demos of this...

Kickstarter is one of my favorite websites to find awesome projects, including some very neat technology and this may be a device that revolutionizes written language. The lernstift was created by some brilliant german inventors and made this glorious piece of tech. This device can tell you how well you are writing incase you have sloppy handwriting, it can also tell if you spelled a word wrong....Wow! It uses a motion sensor to track what you are writing and you can see your digital output on a computer as well. It vibrates to tell you that you have made a mistake, allowing you to look over what you did and fix it. Its an actually functioning pen, but you dont even have to write on paper, making letters in the air is still tracked and noticed! I feel this will be a really great tool for students who struggle to properly learn some more common words so they get used to them and wont be left in the past with a limited ability to spell. If they just have sloppy handwriting its got them c...
