11:53 Dbrand also sells what they call Darkplates, though the only version currently available is the 2.0 version that's shaped slightly differently and has the entire cease and desist email that Sony sent them for the first version engraved on the inside in binary (no, that is not a joke).
The fact that your mom yells at you for spending your hard-earned money on your hobbies/making your living is HILARIOUS and such a mom thing to do! X'D This was fun and interesting! Love it! Awesome job, as always!
I saw you had a vertical laptop holder for your MacBook. I just got one that holds 2(one for home and one for work laptop) . That's always a nice gift to free up some desk space! I didn't know they existed until I was mad at how little space I had
Weird monitor option I'd love to see Mr. Wulff review: 28", 16 x 18 LG monitor called the DualUp. Might be very interesting for emulating games that were designed for old CRT TVs. It can also take 2 inputs simultaneously, each getting the top or bottom 16 x 9 halves of the monitor. It's generally written off as not for gaming (and it is only 60 MHz refresh rate), but this channel seems like a great place for thinking outside the box on tech.
i love seeing you getting deeper into custom keyboards and cannot wait for you to dive into the rabbit hole and drop a ton of money on a high end custom
Great ideas here. Never thought of an HDMI splitter, and those Gigabyte displays and their input switching are pretty slick, thanks for your work, as always!
I also travel a lot for work and those Tomtoc cases are super good for keeping buttons unpressed. They even have small slots open for charging while in the case. I bought all the versions, and appreciate the identifying color tab for Ps5(blue)/Xbox(green), and switch(red).
the day bob gets into gaming mice modding is going to be the day of reckoning. Swapping buttons and all the different types of mouse feet/skates. Godspeed Bob
15:44 I have two questions about the monitors - How do you connect the monitors to make it double screen? - where do you plug in your mouse and keyboard to be able to switch either from desktop or PC on the fly?
That HDMI switcher looks like it has more HDMI ports than the one that I bought. The funny thing is I own a Nintendo Switch so I plugged it into that HDMI port on my TV lol get it they're both switches of different types.
the controller case is something I may should get. Im kinda surprised my poor pro controller still lives ^^" My mom gets my old nintendo switch this year with custom buttons bc I have an OLED switch now. During the year I got an 8bit Do dongle for my switch to connect a XBox controller to my switch for my BF so he didnt need to wrap his head around the "wierd nintendo buttons" anymore XD
Besides the gift cards and the controller cases( which you even stated was the basics) this is one of the few original idea videos I have seen. Great job! ... I will now proceed to buy them all for myself... I mean, for my little brother 🤣
I love my gigabyte monitors. I have 3 devices connected to it, and also to Note, the auto switch is able to be turned off, for when you don't want your monitor to flash your xbox while you are working.
Helpful video! Ordered two 8Bitdo Ultimate controllers (1 black, 1 white) for the Switch. They are set to arrive a little after Christmas, but the wait will be worth it!!!
I know somebody who has a lot of consoles. Me! I have a lot of consoles. I'm always fumbling around the back of my TV switching what's plugged into the HDMI ports. And I've had trouble finding a good HDMI 2.1 switch. I might pick one of these up. Thanks for including that.
I love my Custom Elite Series 2.. Mine is black red and gold, just wish they had the actual gold color. Eventually all the painted metal parts like the d-pad and back paddles should wear off. The plastic parts are not painted so that won't wear off
I was hoping he would make a list of those also. I’m looking to purchase my first within the next year and want as many opinions as possible before I buy one.
He has a whole video from a couple weeks ago about the best handhelds of 2022. ETA: None of them have reliable shipping windows so wouldn’t be appropriate for anywhere for last minute Christmas gifts.
I'm a fairly happy GMMK Pro owner but almost anyone that has gone down the keyboard rabbit hole would say that there are a number of options that are both better built and more affordable!
The only thing I disagree with in this video is the mayflash adaptator I had one and it just broke out of nowhere within a day of using it, 8bitdo has one for the same price and the quality is lightyears ahead of it
On the UA-cam app, the button isn't red for an unsubscribed user. It's the opposite of the light or dark theme the user has selected. So Bob would like dark theme users to change the button from white to black.
I do need an HDMI 2.1 switcher. I have to directly connect to my elgato 4k because the HDMI 2.0 switcher I have will cause the screen to black out constantly.
If you have PlayStation plus, whatever you order from the PS website will be delivered super fast. At least that's been my experience with everything I've order from them... Including my ps5 I ordered in February of this year.
Absolutely shocked the Steam Deck and possibly a retro handheld not on this list - but guess it’s because it would come after Xmas since this video came out a week before it
Why would a Steam Deck be on this list? If you care for someone enough to want to spend that much money on them, you don't need a video to tell you that it exists. This is clearly for giving people niche or unexpected suggestions that they never would have thought of otherwise. Maybe even the person who receives it never would have known to ask for it. You might as well say "absolutely shocked the PlayStation 5 is not on this list". Everybody knows already, they don't need to be told.
With controllers on switch you also gotta mention the rumble as some of them give you a tone more rumble than the game intends (and/or less rumble) so that may be off-putting to people.
Kind of specific question but, how do you turn on your macbook? Do you take it off the stand where you have it, open it, touch the button and then place it back there? Isn't that a little annoying? I am having this issue right now and wanted to know how you solved it, if you did.
12:28 easier to upgrade storage on a PS5 than it is on an Xbox Series X? I don’t have to pop a side panel off, use a screwdriver to open a port, make sure I pick a drive with the right specs and a heatsink and screw that in too. Xbox is literally plug it in and go.
As usual tuning in for just the commercials. Steam gift cards are also a great gift for someone that wants to get a steam deck. It's a big purchase but friends and family can get you pretty close to the $400 base model and the SSD (2230 size) is like $30ish for 256gigs.
for pc games here's a few I've been eyeballing/have. a 4 port usb hub with mounting holes/double sided tape . one that plugs into the wall and the pc if your going to plug in hard drives and shi. otherwise meh. they even make ones that have a little adjustable clamp that you can use. those are nice a usb 3.0 extension cable. their cheap and a god send. throw in little cable management clips, their like 5$ and will let them have a usb port wherever. A headphone hanger. theirs $20-40. theirs ones with usb ports built in as well. Usualy has 3 usb ports and its great for tucking away your headphones and keeping them charged an aftermarket wrist wrest for their keyboard, fairly cheap and way better then the one that came with theirs. i got a memory foam one for like $20. a fosi q4 dac. its not the worst, its not best. but man itll make sound pop on a pc for $60 or for the same price FiiO Headphone Amps Portable DAC. it works via usb-c and has a solid feel in the hand.
a monitor arm, if you can confirm there montiors have a vesa mount. dont cheap out too much. set a floor of like $30 a wireless mouse that has wireless charging built in, when their done for the day, they just set it on a charging pad and never have to worry about it again with some of them. also could be used for their phone. if you want to go gimmicky, you could get them a clip on cup holder for their desk (wouldnt recomend it, but could be a fun gag) a phone stand/ or one with wireless charger for their phone, its good to help them keep an eye on things. a decorative desk pillow. for those friends that are always falling asleep at their desk (dfk why. but besides the point) their about $20-30 and will be a god send when they stir in the middle of the night they have pikachu ones even :P for retro nerds, mayflash makes an adapter for wii remotes and gamecube controllers. the wii remote one is like $15 the gamecube controller one is like $25. plug and play, without rumble tho if you care about rumble it requires a specific driver install. a little annoying, not hard tho. that driver will also let you use the wii u adapter instead if you want.
Should I buy a Nintendo switch oled in 2023? I already have a Nintendo switch lite (That I use for animal crossing) but I want to buy a new one for multiplayer games like Mario party superstar, switch sports, overcooked2, Super smash bros ultimate, Mario kart exc.. Or should I wait? In case they release a new more powerful switch?
As a keyboard nerd myself, *do not recommend the GMMK Pro.* The features do not stack up to the Keychron Q1, which is cheaper and way more beginner friendly for playing with different mods and dialing in the sound and feel. Get the Q1 over the GMMK Pro.
The GMMK Pro is a great keeb. Sure the Q1 is much cheaper for a prebuilt board but don't knock the Pro just because the Q1 is a more budget-friendly option. It's all personal preference anyhow.

+1 for Darkplates 2.0, I love mine a lot! I'm thankful for the 2.0 version for the increased airflow with the vents.
@@SlyAceZeta I just love the fact that when you go to buy them, it says "checkmate, lawyers" next to the add to cart button 😂
Dbrand's great. I got their Darkplate before the Sony lawyers clamped down and made them change the shape.
Their plates suck
that's extremely based on Dbrand's part

Im using a $20 keyboard. Works perfectly!
I always ask for steam gift cards every year. They literally are the perfect gift. Well, that and gas station gift cards are great too. 😅
The only thing I disagree with in this video is the mayflash adaptator I had one and it just broke out of nowhere within a day of using it, 8bitdo has one for the same price and the quality is lightyears ahead of it
How have I not been subscribed!!!? I'm happy you yelled at me about it.
i was thinking about buying myself the oled, but considering my main gaming is done on pc, makes it hard to justify if its worth it.
@ProtoGnome fair deal. i dropped console aka xbox/ps for pc since it was virtually the same. switch on the other hand, has few but interesting titles.
I don't know anyone that needs any of these but I certainly can use an HDMI splitter for my consoles. So Merry Christmas to me?

I bought a hdmi switcher its not hdmi 2.1 but still works with my ps5 and my monitor displays it at 120 ugreeen was the the product i think
I do need an HDMI 2.1 switcher. I have to directly connect to my elgato 4k because the HDMI 2.0 switcher I have will cause the screen to black out constantly.
If you get a gift card in-store, check and ensure the UPC on the back isn't a sticker over the actual UPC. It's a new gift card scam going around.
M32U is great. Good value. And the usbc port works for video.
If you have PlayStation plus, whatever you order from the PS website will be delivered super fast. At least that's been my experience with everything I've order from them... Including my ps5 I ordered in February of this year.

What a coincidence that this vid released on the same day my ps5 got delivered (it was supposed to be a surprise late birthday/ Christmas present)
Lol Bob, what the hell were you doing when you were installing the ssd in the ps5. Trying to use the mounting spacer as a screw lol
The only channel where I don't want to skip the sponsorships.
