The Retroid Pocket 2+ is my… 20th emulation console. I think. It might be even more than that now, as I’ve grown to rather love this little hobby and I’ve lost count of the number of the things I have. In the time since I started getting into this hobby…
Read MoreMy Powkiddy X18S arrived today. Touted as the first in the “new generation” of handheld emulation consoles out of China, the device’s more powerful chipset means that consoles that previous devices struggled with (think N64, Dreamcast, PSP and DS) are now within reach.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. When I looked at the price of the Corsair HS80 RGB Wireless headset, after having tested it thoroughly, I was more than a little surprised. I thought, based on the build and audio quality, that this would be in a much higher price band than the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’m doing more and more streaming and video work these days. It’s difficult to engage with video games without doing some of it, and I figure, if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. I’ve also been using an “old faithful,” decade-old Blue Snowball microphone to do…
Read MoreLast week Nintendo and Fujifilm had something exciting to share; a new partnership that would allow people to directly print out their favourite digital photos (i.e. screenshots) from the upcoming New Pokemon Snap using the instax mini Link. The mini Link is a tiny, pocket-sized printer that churns out Polaroid-style…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. EPOS has provided us with a few premium audio equipment options over the last couple of months, and in general, the brand is impressive for its ability to provide quality gaming-orientated audio.
