    4k TV for PS4 Pro recommendations?

    Back when I bought my PS4 in late 2015, I bought a small 1080P TV to go with it.  Great TV, but... it is really small.  I was stupid.  I should have gotten something bigger. I am kind of thinking now about getting a 4k TV for my PS4 Pro.  I'm not sure what size would be best, maybe 55"?  My...

    I despise iTunes

    I've been attempting to use iTunes for the past ten years.  I have always hated it, and I think I hate it more than ever now.  It is the most unintuitive mess of a program that has little or no regard for what the user wants to happen versus what it thinks should happen. I recently purchased a...

    Power/eject buttons on PS3 no longer work

    This was an odd surprise.  I noticed yesterday that the buttons on my PS3 to turn it on and eject a disc no longer work at all. Frankly, this isn't generally a problem, because I have a PS3 remote, and you can do it with the controller and menus as well. However, there have been times when...

    Back up games/saves that I have on external HDD?

    Okay, so imagine I run all my games from an external HDD.  Is there some way to backup my save data in case the hard drive dies or crashes?   This would be so much easier if I could just keep all my save data on my Wii U and all the game data on the external HDD, but it seems for digital...

    Transferring Wii U data from USB drive to external HDD

    I've been using my on-board Wii U storage, but it hasn't been enough, so I've been swapping stuff back and forth off a USB thumb drive (hopefully haven't ruined the poor thing). I now, finally, have an old USB 2.0 external HDD I can use, 2TB. How do I get my stuff from the USB stick onto the...

    My TV has a delay :(

    So I noticed with my Wii U that my TV has a delay. I noticed this with my Wii as well, but it became totally apparently with the Wii U. For instance in Super Mario World, jumping on the gamepad is instantaneous, but on the TV, the jump is maybe a tenth of a second "late." Meanwhile, all...

    Problems with SD cards 64GB or bigger?

    Hi there. My 32GB SD card is full.  However, I have a slower class 64GB card (class 6 Sandisk Ultra--20 MB/s, it says), and if I understand correctly, being slower isn't going to matter as the 3DS can only support up to a certain speed (like class 4?).  I also understand I need to format it as...

    Deathfire, classic turn-based, story-focused RPG (not a dungeon-cralwer!) from Planescape: Torment producer and maker of Realms of Arkania

    This game looks so awesome, and it is not going to get funded without a miracle.  :(  :(  :(  I wanted to post about it in deals, but that would be rude. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/g3studios/deathfire-ruins-of-nethermore It's from the designer of a really good series of RPGs called...

    Nintendo Land disappeared from the eShop

    I know this has been reported by news sites and stuff.  Does anyone know if it's coming back, or what?  What's the deal?   They kind of shot themselves in the foot with me.  I'd really prefer the eShop version.  If it's not coming back, I'll see if I can get it for $20 or something, but I'm not...

    Mario/Luigi U as pack-in = no Club Nintendo registration/survey/points?

    I got the Mario/Luigi U Wii U bundle ($245! yay).  Happy to be a new Wii U owner! I linked my account and all that stuff, got the survey for the console itself, but I was wondering, does this mean I don't get a survey or points for my copies of New Super Mario Bros. U and Super Luigi U?  ...

    Nintendo Land

    I'd been hoping Nintendo would sell it for $20 in the eShop, but I guess that has little chance of happening! That fantasy gone, I thought perhaps I could grab it $15-20 new on a Black Friday deal (maybe Amazon will still do it). I'm not really into the used stuff. Anyone heard of deals?  If...

    Assassin's Creed IV Steam/PC $49--buy now, or wait for lower over holidays?

    I've been really excited about Assassin's Creed IV.  It's caused me to go to my backlog and play 1, 2 and Brotherhood (got them on Steam deals!).   I still need to get and play Revelations and 3.  I'm hoping they'll be on sale during the holidays on Steam. The real question is about Assassin's...

    Any good external HDD deals lately?

    I'm hoping there will be something on Amazon during the holidays at some crazy discount.

    Wii U external HDD cheap? (dilemma)

    So here's the deal.  I've got a great USB 3.0 3TB disk.  I use this with my computer.  I also have a 1.5TB USB 2.0 with external power.  This would be perfect for my new Wii U, BUT, I'm using it as a backup for the first drive I mentioned, the main one. So, I need to either buy a new backup...

    Assassin's Creed IV Steam key pre-order $49 StackSocial.com (delivered 11/21 or 11/22, deal expires 11/18)

    https://stacksocial.com/sales/assassin-s-creed-iv-black-flag-pc-pre-release Question is, will Amazon or Steam themselves have the PC/Steam version for less or the same on Black Friday or during the holiday sale, or is this the lowest it'll go? I'm planning to wait, with fingers crossed, but if...

    Assassin's Creed series control problems

    I'm playing Assassin's Creed II for the first time (currently about 26 hours in and I assume getting close to the end), working my way up to IV.  I had to skip the first because it was horribly tedious, and the control made me want to punch myself in the crotch. Playing II, I'm having a blast...

    Can my computer run Ass Creed III and IV? (specs inside)

    Hope I'm posting in the right place.  Been obsessing over which platform to get Ass IV on, but then I thought, frick, if a PS3 can run this game, surely my PC can run it as well as a PS3, at least (and probably a lot better). (I know; its not out yet, so this is hypothetical.) 8GB RAM...

    Wii U (preferably Zelda WW one or NSMBU bundle)

    I think Frys was giving a $50 giftcard with a Wii U, which would have been awesome, but I don't have a Frys here, and I don't think it worked online. I wonder if there will be any decent BF deals on a console?  Are there any deals comparable to the Frys one that I'm missing? I'm probably...

    Streetpass Relay--why is it so hit and miss?

    So I've been experimenting a lot with Steetpass Relay, and like Streetpassing in general, it is mysterious, sometimes works, and sometimes leaves you feeling like a jilted lover. Yesterday, I went to all the Streetpass Relays in town.  This consisted of: Two McDonald's, Barnes, Starbucks.  (One...
