Nintendo hit the mark with the Switch game console and delighted many with new games of the popular heroes Link (Zelda), Super Mario and others. Of course, you can also play titles from other developers on the Switch console. The Lite version skimps a bit on build and practicality, but the ultimate gaming experience is the same. For a lower price. Great gifts!

Let's be honest, visiting friends usually feel right at home and leave their glasses everywhere. Why not protect the furniture from the remains of wet glasses with a little retro touch? Floppy disks have not served their original purpose for many years, but this does not mean that they are completely useless.

It is not an ordinary chessboard with only artfully carved pieces, but much more. We will also be able to play chess on it ourselves, as the opposing pieces will be moved by artificial intelligence via the computer. Yes, the figures can move on their own and eliminate dropped figures. Crazy! We can choose from as many as 20 difficulties.

Serious gaming also requires the use of good headphones. They have to detect the enemy's footsteps from afar and paint a detailed surround sound. The HyperX Cloud Alpha S is one such headset. The sound, which simulates a 7.1 sound setup, will provide a real cinematic effect. In addition, they are very comfortable for hours of gaming sessions.

Computer glasses Klim

Since we are becoming more and more accustomed to staring at various screens (computer, phone, TV) long into the night, it is wise to limit the exposure of our eyes to blue light in the evening. This reduces the feeling of fatigue, which means, among other things, that it will be harder to fall asleep. To avoid sleep disturbances, it is therefore recommended to use glasses with a blue light filter.

Yoshi Egg night light

Oculus Go works a little differently than more expensive VR glasses. They are completely wireless and can run regular smartphone games. We can also watch Netflix through them, and with a little ingenuity we can also play VR games through SteamVR, which are otherwise intended for PCs and more expensive VR glasses. Oculus Go glasses can thus be an excellent entry point into the world of virtual reality.

When we feel like we're lost in the complex mines of Minecraft, these torches always show us the way to the surface. What would we do without them! Let them light our way in real life as well. They can also be mounted on the wall as a game. I'd like one too, please!
