    GEEKOM A7 Mini PC

    Oh boy weve got a beast on our hands this time. In the past few months Ive looked at a bunch of Mini PCs across the vast spectrum of price and power. Ive found great amusement in playing Wii U games on a 250 N-Series CPU, and usually find myself impressed at the options on offer for these tiny...

    Supernote Nomad

    I make no secret of my interest in e-ink. Though this fun technology that usually finds its primary use in e-readers, it hasnt stopped companies from incorporating e-ink displays into more niche areas like music players and phones. Today we come back to a more standard use from a company weve...

    Intel NUC 11 Mini PC

    Ill keep the preamble short here since weve been covering a number of mini PCs in the past month of so; I imagine most have a general idea of whats on offer here. The NUC 11 is, to the best of my research, a collaborative effort between Geekom and Intel to release a mini PC under Intels official...

    MonsGeek M1W Wireless Mechanical Keyboard

    Taking the M1W out of its packaged shell for the first time I was pretty stoked. Here we have a full purple aluminium case with some gold accents on each side, paired with some really great-looking gradient keycaps. These keycaps are shine-through to support the RGB backlighting, but actually...

    8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard

    Weve covered 8BitDo a fair bit on this site. Offering a decent assortment of retro-themed controllers and gaming accessories, theyve earned a name for themselves as a brand worth watching for that sweet nostalgia hit. Where were going today is new territory though, and a realm Im always excited...

    GEEKOM Mini Air12 Mini PC

    Just last week I covered one of Geekoms 12th generation Intel Mini PCs in the IT12. A relative powerhouse packing an i7 12650H CPU along with 32GB of RAM and a bunch of storage options, it stood as a great all rounder for people wanting performance in a tight package. This power did come at a...

    GEEKOM Mini IT12 Mini PC

    Its been a long time since Ive had a Mini PC to play with, with Minisforums X35G being the last one I looked at all the way back in 2020. Sporting a 10th generation i3 under the hood, it stood as a capable low-powered device suitable for light tasks and a surprising amount of emulation. Now...

    Naheulbeuk’s Dungeon Master

    The setting of Naheulbeuks Dungeon Master may be a familiar one if youve played the game before it, the aptly titled Dungeon of Naheulbeuk. Setting itself up as a prequel, it tasks you with building the twice-titular dungeon as the steward to an incompetent dungeon master. With a comedic cast...

    Super Mario Bros. Wonder

    A series many of us will have grown up with, Super Mario Bros is the absolute titan of the 2D platforming space. With huge releases on all but two of Nintendos major platforms, it had previously struck some as odd that the Switch hasnt seen any new content since its launch in 2017. At last...

    Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless

    Disgaea as a series holds a special place in my heart. Discovering it in the early days of the Switch when portable content was far more limited than it is today, Disgaea 5 Complete completely changed my perception of what a Tactical RPG can be. Campy comedic storylines paired with a gameplay...

    NuPhy Air75 V2 Mechanical Keyboard

    If youve seen a NuPhy keyboard before the out of box experience will be a fairly standard one. On top of the keyboard itself, you get a USB A dongle for 2.4GHz connectivity, seven additional keycaps to match the OS youre most likely to use the keyboard with, four extra switches to give you a...

    NuPhy Field75 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

    Out of the box the Field75 is certainly unique. Giving off a steampunk kind of vibe, you have a metal handle on the left, a volume wheel in the top left, a further twistable cog, a dial to switch between connectivity modes, and eight macro buttons. This is, naturally, on top of the standard 75%...

    Viewfinder

    Viewfinder starts out with a simple concept and develops it as you play. Reminding me of Echochrome in a lot of ways, youre tasked with picking up pictures and placing them in the world, with the picture becoming a part of your reality. At the start of the game its a simple case of looking...

    Nobunaga's Ambition: Awakening

    Nobunagas Ambition as a series has always been an interesting one for me. Set in the turbulent Warring States Period of Japanese history, it sees you pick a clan and see it through to the end, with the larger goal of achieving what Oda Nobunaga could not: unifying the country. Starting out on...

    WaterField Pouch for ROG Ally

    Windows handhelds arent new, but ASUS have been kicking up a storm by offering a great device at an incredibly compelling price. Where I think they fell short, however, is in their official case. Its been designed fairly thoughtfully for the system and can act as a stand while gaming, and keep...

    Backbone One Mobile Game Controller

    I make no secret about my love for mobile gaming. With how much power we now carry around in our pockets, were capable of playing everything from Excitebike to Mario Galaxy 2 by emulation, and a whole world more with native apps and game streaming. With so much to play and more on the horizons...

    Huion Kamvas 22 Plus Pen Display

    A few months back we looked at Huions Kamvas Pro 13 (2.5k) pen display. Released last year, this was a slim and portable pen display packed with features at a great price, and something I still recommend for people looking for a portable monitor that can do more. The Kamvas 22 Plus were looking...

    RetroFlag isnt a new name on this forum, and this likely isnt the last time youll see me writing about them. Primarily known for their retro-themed items ranging from the GameCube-themed Switch controller I covered a little while back, to some more intricate Raspberry Pi cases, RetroFlag have...
