Sealed copy of Super Mario Bros. for the NES smashes auction record

Source: Sealed copy of Super Mario Bros. for the NES smashes auction record A like-new, still-sealed copy of Super Mario Bros. for the NES was auctioned for $114,000 (via The Verge). This makes the US copy of the 1985 game the most expensive game ever sold. It breaks the record set by a copy of the same game that sold for $100,150 last year. This copy is actually an earlier printing, apparently . The game was particularly rare because of its 9.4/10 condition rating and the special packaging it comes in, which has a lot to do with cardboard hanging tabs. Heritage Auctions described the lot: “Cardboard hanging tabs were originally used in the US test market for copies of black box games before plastic was used to seal each game. As Nintendo began to further establish its company in the US, its packaging was updated almost continuously. Strangely, the addition of the plastic wrap came before the box die was changed to remove the cardboard hanging tab. This rendered the functionalit...

Samsung Galaxy A30 review

Source: Samsung Galaxy A30 review introduction The new Samsung Galaxy A series has proven to be an excellent range of offerings, ranging from the budget A10 to the upper mid-range A80. We’ve already reviewed a number of these Aces, but we’re far from done – there are so many of them left. And today it’s the turn of the Galaxy A30 – an intriguing mix of the inner workings of the A40 and the display of the A50. The Galaxy A (2019) smartphones share a few common traits, and the A30 is no different – it has one glass table body, a Super AMOLED screen, and a multi-camera setup on the back that includes an ultra-wide-angle snapper. But this phone is kind of an oddball. We suspect Samsung had this plan at some point to rank these models by price, but the Galaxy A30 doesn’t fit in as well as it’s more expensive than the A40 model. And it makes sense to be like that, since the Galaxy A30 packs a larger AMOLED and a beefier battery compared to the A40. So the Galaxy A30 is packed with...

Death Stranding on PC is a great port of a frustrating game

Source: Death Stranding on PC is a great port of a frustrating game Death Stranding is the first of the big PS4 exclusives to make its way to PC, and as a sign of the future, it’s nothing but good news. As a standalone game? Well, it’s Death Stranding… for better or for worse. Hideo Kojima’s unfiltered epic was a PS4 exclusive when it launched just last November, but 505 Games is now bringing it to PC tomorrow, July 14th, via Steam, Epic and of course Amazon. You’ll once again be following in the well-trodden footsteps of Sam Porter-Bridges, a post-apocalyptic postman played by Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead. Most of the game is spent transporting packages between different outposts while dodging enemies, building infrastructure, and taking on the all-star cast. I’ve played through the first two episodes of the game – probably about a quarter of the way through – and as a port there’s little to complain about. Frame rate is the biggest step up for PC gamers. While Death Str...

Motorola Moto Z4 review

Hình ảnh
Source: Motorola Moto Z4 review introduction Motorola is back for another year with its Z series. In fact, its design is largely inherited from the very first Moto Z, released in 2016. Instead of keeping the Moto Z as the brand’s flagship, Motorola decided to launch the Z4 as a midranger, while the Z3 was really a refreshment over the Moto Z2. In the Moto Z3, Motorola used a previous generation flagship chipset – the Snapdragon 835 from the Z2. Motorola didn’t even use a high-end chipset for the Z4. Instead, a mid-range Snapdragon 675 processor was chosen, indicating a mid-range positioning of the device. On paper, the Moto Z4 feels like it’s just meant to be the Moto Z4 Play, but as Motorola has done in years past, Moto hasn’t released a “Play” variant of the Moto Z4, which is usually a few weeks before announced the announcement is the main Z variant. Although the Moto Z4 sees some updates in current smartphone industry trends like the in-display fingerprint scanner and a high...

OnePlus Nord 3 reportedly being tested in India

Source: OnePlus Nord 3 reportedly being tested in India (Pocket-lint) – Following the announcement of the Nord CE 2 Lite, reports are that OnePlus is already testing a new device, codenamed Meili. It seems the company just can’t stop churning out phones lately, a far cry from the two models a year we used to expect. MySmartPrice reports that the mysterious new handset is being tested in India and will likely fall into the Nord series. We expect the successor to the Nord 2 to launch in June or July, but OnePlus hasn’t confirmed that yet. It’s expected to feature a 90Hz AMOLED display and be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8000 chipset. It will also likely have a triple camera array on the rear, with a 4500mAh battery and 80W fast charge support. However, rumors suggest that the Meili won’t be the next phone we see from OnePlus. Instead, we’ll likely see the Nord 2T beforehand. The Nord 2T is expected to be an iterative upgrade of the Nord 2, powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 130...

Sony Xperia L3 review

Source: Sony Xperia L3 review introduction Sony unveiled four smartphones at the last MWC in Barcelona, ​​but the cheapest of the quartet – the Xperia L3 – was easy to miss. The Xperia 1 had the 4K and the company’s first triple camera, the Xperia 10 and 10 Plus brought 21:9 cinemawide screens to the mid-range, while the Xperia L3 seemed to have no trump card of its own. Let’s find out if that’s actually the case, or if there’s more to the entry-level handset than the spec sheet suggests. The Sony Xperia L3 is the manufacturer’s cheapest smartphone for 2019, but unlike the previous L devices, this one seems more ambitious and appealing. Adopting Sony’s latest design language, the L3 has a trendy large screen, although its aspect ratio is 18:9 and not 21:9. Another cool feature carried over from the premium models is the side-mounted fingerprint reader. The site is one of the best places to put a biometric scanner and has already proven to be very convenient and natural. The Xp...
