Looks nice but each block is a bit narrow

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's very easy to set up with each piece being like a duplo brick. The flag pole tends to lean back or forward a bit because of the top weight and the block not being held completely in place although it doesn't feel like it would ever fall over on its own. It's a bit hard to have certain amiibo next to each other or all facing forward because of how some have frames that extend far outside of their base's circle.

Partner with Pikmin once again in the Wii U Pikmin 3 game. This sequel introduces five types of Pikmin, each with special abilities to help you solve puzzles and gather resources. Use multiplayer mode to challenge friends in the Wii U Pikmin 3 game, or share your victories on social media by using the built-in screen capture software.

Exploring in Pikmin 3 feels a bit better than in the previous games because of being able to split up into three teams, and keep an eye on them with the gamepad's screen. The maps also seem a bit more set up for splitting up than Pikmin 2's although there aren't dungeons to go through. It's not quite as easy to control as the Wii version of Pikmin or Pikmin 2 because of the lack of point and click controls, but it's still easy enough to control the game. The main story mode is a bit easy, but the real challenge comes from the Mission Mode where you're scored on your performance on set stages.

Works well and feels good

Verified Purchase:Yes
The mouse feels good for a palm grip and works well overall. The cover (the top side) is easily removed for changing the batteries. The blue button on the side can be used as a simple button and can also detect your thumb swiping up or down on it. These three actions can be programmed to do different things on a PC.

Mega Man Legacy Collection Collector's Edition for 3DS is a disappointment.
First, I'll talk about the non-game stuff it comes with. The amiibo comes in the laziest, cheapest box. It's just a regular amiibo box with the cardboard being entirely white. Couldn't even spare a bit of money to make it look nice eh, Capcom? When this Collector's Edition was announced, Capcom stated it would come with a CD soundtrack. At some point, this was discretely changed to a download code which really feels like a bait and switch. The included art postcards are not of the original art but instead of new art. Unfortunately, Mega Man looks rather bad in all six of them. Inside the game case itself and also included with the non-CE versions are four stickers and two download codes for 3DS home menu themes. The stickers are just stickers. I like the Dr. Wily logo sticker, but the other three are rather underwhelming. The two themes are both rather nice although they can be purchased separately anyway. Oddly, one theme is based on MM2's stage select screen but uses MM1's stage select music.

Now for the game itself. Most of it is okay but not great. The games have brighter colors than on Virtual Console, but use a 1:1 pixel ratio instead of 4:3. It's fine for playing the games but it won't look like it did on a CRT TV. In addition to the six NES MM games, you can also play the Japanese version of each. There aren't many differences between the two versions of each game though. Most of the games play 99.9% fine (the games skip a frame about once every 10 seconds for some reason), but Mega Man 5 plays horrendously. MM5 constantly stutters at all times making the game look like it runs at 30 fps instead of 60 fps. It's probably because of very sloppy and lazy programming because Rockman 5 plays just as well as all the others. This is a problem because the challenge mode requires you to play the NA version of all the games, so you'll sometimes go from a smoothly running section to a stuttering mess from MM5. For anyone hoping for a patch, the developer pretty much confirmed that it's not happening already. The character and art galleries look nice although I'm not sure if they reduced the resolution for the 3DS version even though you can zoom in. Also, there are scans of the Japanese manual for each game, but the English manuals are not present. This seems like something odd to be left out. The challenge mode is okay. There's nothing new present in it as it just uses existing sections from the games. There's time ranking for each stage (preset rankings; no online leaderboards). That's all there is to the mode.
Overall, I'm very disappointed at how little care they gave this collection, and that they couldn't even get the games to work 100% correctly.

Much improved over the first PXZ
on April 19, 2016
Posted by: Kiwin
Verified Purchase:Yes
PXZ2 is an overall improvement over the first game. The enemies don't have as much HP, the turn order is now your whole team followed by the whole enemy team, you can now buy equipment and items, you get points to level up the attacks of each character or pair as well as buy abilities for them, there's now a difference between skill points for single units and the overall team, and the combo system has been changed to make it a bit harder to juggle enemies perfectly and get them locked in a cross attack.
The plot remains overall silly and fun, and he game is still pretty easy overall although there is a hard mode to unlock like with the first game.

Some connectivity issues
on April 19, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I mostly use this keyboard with my LG G4 cellphone and not too frequently. The design feels good to use, it works great most of the time, and the price is great. However, it loses connection with my phone about once every hour of use. I have to reconnect it through the phone's menus sometimes having to reinput the key. I think it may be an issue with the phone model rather than with the keyboard because the same issue happens with my mother's LG G4. It's also a bit annoying that there isn't any indicator whether or not the Caps Lock is on, but it's not a big deal.

The voluptuous young shinobi of Hanzo National Academy are facing their rival students from Hebijo Clandestine Girls' Academy. However, their secret skirmish of good and evil is a mere pretext for a darker plot, as the Hebijo girls' devious puppetmaster wants to harness the bloodshed for unbelievable power. Now, as the puppetmaster's demonic plague spreads across Japan, the rivals find themselves as allies, and these bubbly heroines must fight together to defeat an army of hideous enemies. In this all-out war with the underworld, will the girls be able to put aside their differences to make a stand. Join the naughty, yet very nice ninja girls in an all-new high-flying, clothes-ripping adventure in Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson. Featuring 2.5D side-scrolling brawling action, all 12 buxom fighters from the franchise are here with a new spin on each one's signature style along with a new partner battle mechanic. Immerse yourself the adventure even after you've put the game down with this Double D Edition's exclusive two-disc music soundtrack. Fight the demonic hordes, and Japan might survive — but their clothes might not.

The gameplay isn't very good, and it's a bit wordy at times for being an action game. Sure there's a lot of fanservice, but it doesn't make it a fun game. The packaging is nice though with the full soundtrack on two CDs and a nice, thick instruction booklet in full color.

Looks okay. Lucas's design is pretty simple, so there wasn't much that could go wrong. It doesn't have any specific current use outside of Smash though.

The content seems rather bare although there are a lot of crossword puzzles of varying difficulty. For pros, it'll probably be a bit boring because you have to unlock the harder difficulties. The writing recognition seems a bit unreliable at times, but there's no penalty related to that. I'm not really into crossword puzzles, so I probably wouldn't pay more than $5 for this game. Would be better as a download, but Nintendo is never going to lower its price from $30 on the eShop.

Enjoy your music with these Sony Extra Bass MDRXB950BT/B headphones, which feature Electronic Bass Boost circuitry for deep low-end sound. Bluetooth technology with AAC and aptX support allows easy wireless pairing with compatible devices.
Can these be used for a TV?
They can be used for a TV if the TV has Bluetooth audio or a Bluetooth audio transmitter attached. The headphones are APTX compatible so there should be negligible latency between the visuals and the audio. You can also use a long cable to connect to the headphone jack of the TV, but you must connect to the included cable (use a female to male 3.5mm cable) because the end that goes into the headphones is proprietary and won't allow any other other 3.5mm jack to go in. Also, the bass boost feature is only available when using Bluetooth.

Any 3.0 or higher Bluetooth adapater should work with these headphones, but if it's not an aptX bluetooth adapter, you will notice a significant amount of delay between visuals and sound if you try watching videos. Some programs will allow you to adjust for such delays, but it's annoying to do so every time you want to watch something. You'll also want to use the adapter with only the headphones to reduce interference.
