Review: KABOOM! (2015, Ninjaforce Entertainment) – Apple IIGS

Review: KABOOM! (2015, Ninjaforce Entertainment) – Apple IIGS

Apr 16, 2018

NOTE: A version of this review originally appeared in Issue 2, Volume 20 (2015), of Juiced.GS, a quarterly print magazine for Apple II users. If you’ve been around videogames and computers long enough, hearing the name “Kaboom” associated with a game probably conjures thoughts of Activision’s classic bomb catching game,...

Review: Geekerbuy Electronic Writing Tablet

Review: Geekerbuy Electronic Writing Tablet

Mar 16, 2018

While I’ve liked the popular Boogie Board writing tablet series, there has always been room for some competition. The Geekerbuy Electronic Writing Tablet provides that competition with a generous 12 inch screen format at a great price. The front of the box. I’m reviewing the Blue, but it’s also available...

Review: The Oregon Trail Handheld (Basic Fun, 2018)

Review: The Oregon Trail Handheld (Basic Fun, 2018)

Mar 13, 2018

As one of the most popular educational computer games of all-time – heck, one of the most popular computer games of all-time – it’s not surprising that The Oregon Trail has popped up again as memes, tchotkes, and hip card games. But a full-featured, stand-alone, mass market handheld game? In...

Review: Atari 2600 Game Journals – Adventure, Asteroids, and Missile Command

Feb 25, 2018

You can get these journals at Amazon, here. Although I only have the Asteroids journal, I can say that the fit and finish on these is excellent, with a nice glossy cover on thick stock and substantial writing pages. It’s definitely worth the modest asking price of around $10, despite...

Review: BESTEK Cordless Stick Vacuum – 2 in 1 Handheld/Upright Lithium Rechargeable Vacuum

Feb 6, 2018

Although we have a still functional Dyson DC07 upright vacuum from back in late 2007, with three floors in our house, including a basement, it’s not the most practical solution to keeping our mostly non-carpeted floors clean. While the Dyson has a generous power cord length and a 17 foot...

Review: elago R1 Intelli Case for Apple TV remote

Jan 8, 2018

Owning both a Roku 4 and Nvidia Shield TV, I can say that the Apple TV 4K is probably the best of a mediocre bunch of the streaming media players so important to us cord cutters. Among the Apple TV 4K’s worst features, however, is its remote control. It’s small,...

In my ongoing quest to track down the best PLA 3D printing filament, I decided to try out the Asani PLA 3D Printing Filament. The 1.75mm 1kg spool of filament comes in Black, Blue, Green, Red, White, and Wood. I’m specifically reviewing the Blue. It’s a vibrant, lighter blue color....

Review: BittBoy FC Mini Handheld – 300 game Famicom/NES system

Dec 17, 2017

The BittBoy FC Mini Handheld is a 300 game Famicom/NES system. While the case design is reminiscent of an original GameBoy, it’s in a considerably more compact form factor. The box. Contents. The BittBoy is available in Black, Blue, Red, White, or Yellow. I’m reviewing the White. Front view. Rear...
