Incredible art direction and gameplay

Many reviews state the problem with the game is being unable to see the stunning visuals on your TV... since you are playing on the gamepad.
This is true, and something of a shame when you are playing alone. However, most reviewers played the game alone and did not touch the multiplayer! This game shines when other players join in. Take turns and everyone will get to enjoy the visuals on the screen at least 3/4 of the time.
The Amiibo functionality is basic. It is basically just cheats/upgrades, nothing special.
I highly recommend the game!

Keep things quick and easy while preparing a meal everyone loves. The large hot dog cage fits two regular-size or extra-plump hot dogs. Adjust the heat setting to toast hot dogs to your preference. When done, easily remove the hot dog cage using the included mini tongs. Add your favorite hot dog toppings and enjoy!

Sahlen hot dogs and premium buns! Nothing better... Except when you can drop them in this and walk away, and come back to two perfectly cooked dogs. I bought this as a gift but ended up using it every time I visited!

Reliable and fairly durable!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The price I paid was basically MSRP, but it was a fair price. That said, it was worth it. The drive has a nice form factor and looks like a quality piece of tech. Further, I dropped it almost immediately after opening (doh!) and it still functions perfectly. Transfer speeds for USB 3.0 were as expected.
Great drive!

Excellent JRPG with cool features.

It is pretty standard fair for a JRPG... with a twist. There are plenty of cool nuances that make this game fresh to an otherwise stale and dying genre. Long live the JRPG and Bravely Second should be a great follow up.

Good, but obviously inferior to the Wii U version.

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you don't plan on playing smash for Wii U portably, don't bother with this version. The Wii U version is much better and for the price point, this is pretty high. If you don't own a Wii U, or you really love Smash and want it on the go, pick this up. It is well done and a dream come true for many.

Your submarine moves majestically, stealthily through the murky waters. You could almost reach out and touch the sea creatures as they float by silently — but you have a mission to accomplish. Then, you spot it in the distance — the monstrous shadow that could only be your enemy fast approaching. You pull up your control panel, swiftly tapping the mechanisms in the right order. Suddenly, you hear the screech of metal on metal. You're quick, but they're one step ahead. No matter — you jet to the gaping hole and patch it up before unleashing your powerful torpedo right into the heart of your enemy's vessel. Plunge deep into the ocean for a seaworthy adventure as a submarine commander in Steel Diver. As you descend into the depths, massive sea creatures, looming enemies and hazards of every shape and size spring to life and spring right into your path in captivating 3D. Learn to master the controls of three different vessels, and use them to deftly maneuver your submarine, launch torpedoes and blow enemies out of the water. Your body becomes the controller when you rotate to control the movement of your periscope. Navigate with precision to complete daring missions, and even take on a rival in a head-to-head game of strategy and stealth. An entire fleet of ships and a submarine are at your command as you battle to overpower your enemy. Can you rise — or, rather, sink — to the occasion and conquer the seas?

Club Nintendo Points are worth the price of admission. What you get is a fairly entetraining game well worth the couple of dollars spent. Purely a time waster, it's nice to see Nintendo branch out.

Normally I don't buy game guides, but this is a companion that absolutely adds to the experience of the game!
Draw on the treasure map as you go through the game and chart your adventures. It adds a sense of journey and as if you are really part of the universe. My wife absolutely love it and she is a nongamer. Without the guide it would not have been the same.

Flawed game, great game play.

Where did the $500,000,000 used to create this game go? Everything outside of the actual shooting mechanics is tremendously broken. After reaching lv30 on my warlock, lb 29 on my hunter and lv29 as a titan I only feel regret. I kept playing it hoping it would get better and because friends were playing.
I have no doubt in my mind Destiny will be great in a future itiration but as of now DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Bungie has created an absolutely flawed game.
At least I got a refund on the expansion pass.

Great HTPC keyboard against better competition.

The right shift key isninfuriis infuriating. Some of the key placement is irritating enough that it will ensure you do not use this for typing but more as a tv report for the computer attached to the tv.
Buy the Microsoft brand one for a similar pricepoint. You won't regret it.

Resident Evil 4 with some modern comforts and less

Essentially it falls into a lot of Miamisms but doesn't necessarily contain a lot of quality. It isn't a bad game, and definitely worth a look during the next summer gaming drought. It was released at an unfortunate time facing off against higher quality games at the same price point.

Is this compatible with the Raspberry Pi?
Can i use this keyboard to interface with my raspberry pi? If so, what is it's functionality, and how difficult is it to set up?
Yes! It's extremely easy depending on your set up. If you're booting windows on the rasp, just plug in and let windows update do it's thing. It uses the logitech unifying receiver which means you'll be able to use many other logitechs at the same time.
