My feelings are not positive on this one. Trying to be for the sake of the guys making this but here is my problem...besides being very let down that the crank has nothing to do with charging, the price is just too much. Canadian here so 150USD is just over 200$CAD. For 200$ I can very easily pick up a used ipad or iphone and my kids would love to have either one of those. They play lots of games, they watch videos, they surf the internet, they make video calls, and 100 other uses I am sure. So though this device might be cool, it would be a pretty hard sell for me and my kids. The value just doesn't seem to be worth it.
- m1aw 7y agoYour kids aren't the target market. This is for a young or older adult who has been into gaming his entire life and wants to pay a premium for a very well game (hopefully) device with can offer a unique experience. It's somewhat of a novelty item, but I see there's definitely a market for it.
- ddingus 7y agoWhat those devices do not do is deliver a likely novel game experience. This one does 12 of them. That is 12 opportunities to put the gadgets down and focus on the new game. Each of those are roughly $16 each. It is hard to get through McDees for that sum. So when it is time, the idea is to set the world aside and have a bit of fun. You may be surprised. The kids may groove on it, and just trade those times with fast food or something. Maybe an hour or two spent exploring the games, talking about the experience, seeing who likes what, why, etc... with Dads full attention plays better than you might think.
