Some Drawbacks
on February 29, 2016
Posted by: reidb21
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this game to use with the new AppleTV. It works well and the controller pairs easily, but there are a couple of complaints. First - the new format is kind of strange. If you remember the old Guitar Hero games, there were 5 colored keys on the guitar. With the new version there are "high and low" keys and you have to press the right ones based on an up or down note that comes across on the screen. It is a bit confusing and I understand they were probably trying to make the game "new," but it was a little frustrating. The new "live" videos are nice because you don't have to look at cartoon characters while you play and it makes you seem like you are actually on stage, so that is nice. The biggest complaint I have with the iOS version is that your game only saves when you are signed in with your iTunes / Game Center account. If you have multiple people who play this game, it becomes a big pain to navigate to the AppleTV settings menu, log out of the account, and login to the new one (it also does not store passwords, so you have that to deal with each time). I wish that the game itself would let you login with your credentials once and then select who is playing for that session. This is a huge down-side to this version. I would say to skip the iOS version and get it on a console instead.

Bought for Nostalgia

My son who is now almost 18 used to get upset when Resetti would come out on the GameCube Animal Crossing game. He would think that the game would be deleted because of the things that the character would say, which I always thought was mean to do to a kid. Anyway, he and I were together and saw this Amiibo and we had to buy him because of the laughs we now have when we think about those times from his childhood. I do not use the figure in a game, just have him on display.

I will say that I ended up returning this item - not because of an issue, but because it would not work in my TV cabinet. It works well and sounds good. The bonus is the 3 HDMI ports that are built in, so if your TV is out of ports, this is a great solution to that problem.

Needed a Basic Blu-Ray Player
on February 29, 2016
Posted by: reidb21
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed a basic Blu-Ray player for my bedroom when we rent Redbox movies. This player works well, and has streaming built in. It even will work as a Playstation streaming device if you add a PS3 controller (although I haven't used this functionality). I only took off a star because I think that these Blu-Ray players still cost too much for what they are / do.

Solved Two Problems
on February 29, 2016
Posted by: reidb21
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had been looking at another Sony sound bar system with a subwoofer for a while, but my TV cabinet would not support having the sound bar in front of my TV (it would not fit in front of the TV). Also, my TV only has 2 HDMI inputs (this is a fairly new high-end Sony TV, which baffles my mind as to why they did not put more ports on that TV, but I digress) so I needed a way to expand my HDMI ports. When I saw this model at Best Buy and it is actually a "stand" for the TV plus it has 3 HDMI ports, it solved both of my issues. The sound is great, it looks great, and the HDMI switching is seamless. I highly recommend this product for someone who has the same issues I did.

Perfect Solution

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had been looking for a way to eliminate the need for multiple chargers for my night stand. With a standard 2 socket plug, I was unable to charge my Apple Watch and iPhone, and also have my lamp plugged in. I thought about using a power strip, but it was too cumbersome. I saw this product at Best Buy and with the USB ports (two of them) on the side of the swivel plug, it allowed me to only use one AC plug, leaving the other one open for my lamp. Also, the swivel allowed me to push my night stand closer to the wall than when I was using the Apple chargers, which is another huge plus. This was the perfect solution to my problem.

It is a iTunes card - what can I say, I bought it, used my iPhone camera to add it to my account and it worked. :-)

Set it and forget it

The WeMo light switch is great. It was fairly easy to install and does what it says it will. I like the app and the ability to use dawn / dusk as triggers to turn the lights on and off, unlike the Philips Hue app that does not have that built in for those lights. It also supports IFTTT, which is a bonus. I had to end up doing some additional electrical work to get it installed, since it was replacing a 3-way switch (the instructions said it is not supported, but with the help of a multimeter, I was able to get it to work).
