3DS_SM3DL_Bundle_render_3C

Yeah a little bit more Black Friday news for you.. Nintendo is launching a Flame Red 3DS Bundle for $169.99 and it will include Super Mario 3D pre-installed.

 

Nintendo is giving early holiday shoppers a way to knock two items off their lists at once. Starting Nov. 23, a limited-edition version of the Flame Red Nintendo 3DS will come with Super Mario 3D Land pre-installed on the system. The bundle is offered at a suggested retail price of $169.99, providing an incredible value for holiday shoppers. If purchased separately, the system and the game would be offered at suggested retail prices of $169.99 and $39.99 respectively.

Since it launched, the Nintendo 3DS family of systems has sold nearly 6 million in the United States alone. The portable dual-screen system lets users see 3D images without the use of special glasses, while providing them with a wide variety of gaming and entertainment options. People can explore and purchase additional games in the Nintendo eShop, or watch the fun and funny 3D videos on Nintendo Video.

Super Mario 3D Land reinvents everything fans love about Mario gaming with the first platforming environment in true 3D. Players will experience an exhilarating new sense of depth, distance and speed while running, jumping and stomping on enemies throughout the levels. Mario can also use the tail of his Tanooki suit to swipe at enemies or float down from heights.

Cyber Monday 25% Off at SureFire.com

I’ve got a thing for flashlights, well good flashlights, I don’t know why I just like them. I’ve got several Maglights and Streamlight ones along with others. I’ve never owned a SureFire but I may have to pick one up on Cyber Monday as they’re doing a 25% special.

UB3T_Invictus

 

SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of high-end illumination tools and tactical products, has announced that, on November 26, 2012, the Monday after Thanksgiving known as “Cyber Monday,” it will offer online customers 25% off the MSRP of select products purchased at surefire.com. This one-day SureFire Cyber Monday Sales Event will feature a never-before-offered product mix that includes both best-sellers, such as the G2® Nitrolon® flashlight, and high-end military and law enforcement products like the M900V Vertical Foregrip white-light/infrared LED WeaponLight. Even SureFire-brand battery 12-packs, which have never before gone on sale, will be marked down by 25%. Customers will also receive free UPS ground shipping on all sale items—no minimum purchase required.

“SureFire’s Cyber Monday Sales Event is truly a one-of-a-kind sale,” said SureFire E-Commerce Manager Gabriel Steinmann. “Twenty-five percent off and free shipping are attractive incentives for holiday shoppers on this important online shopping day, but what’s really remarkable is the mix of products we’re discounting. Along with some of our more mainstream products, we’re also offering high-output, state-of-the-art LED WeaponLights and flashlights designed for elite military and SWAT operators. This is rare, if not unprecedented, for SureFire. And it’s all-the-more important because our gear helps keep people safe.”

The “state-of-the-art” WeaponLights mentioned above, include three models of SureFire “V-Series” WeaponLights—the aforementioned M900V Vertical Foregrip, the M952V Millennium® Universal light, and the M500V Dedicated Forend. These unique, best-in-class weapon-mounted lights feature both a solid-state white-light and infrared LED inside one sealed, selectable head. This spectrum-selectable head is important because an operator can switch from white to IR light—the latter for use with night vision goggles—with a simple twist of the head’s bezel with no IR filter required. For those who don’t require infrared illumination, several SureFire white-light-only LED WeaponLights, in Vertical Foregrip and Dedicated Forend versions, will also be marked 25% off during the sale.

High-performance military and law enforcement handheld lights that will be part of SureFire’s Cyber Monday Sales Event include the single-output M6LT Guardian® LED flashlight, which has a maximum output of 900 lumens and is a favorite of special ops teams and big-budget Hollywood movies alike. Featuring eleven preset output levels, including a tactical strobe light, is the UB3T Invictus®, which has a maximum output of 800 lumens and is considered the most sophisticated flashlight ever built. More practical, lower-output everyday-carry lights will be on sale as well, including the 200-lumen G2X and the ubiquitous G2, one of the few incandescent flashlights still manufactured by SureFire, primarily because of its lingering popularity with hardcore SureFire customers.

The SureFire Cyber Monday Sales Event won’t just include illumination tools. Along with flashlights and WeaponLights, an assortment of edged weapons and SureFire pens will also be listed at 25% off, as well as a30th Anniversary Collector Set that includes a special SureFire camouflage-patterned E1B Backup® flashlight and SureFire Pen. Newly released EP7 Sonic Defenders® earplugs and even select SureFire apparel will also be marked down and shipped for free!

The Cyber Monday Sales Event begins at midnight EST on Monday, November 26, 2012, and goes through midnight, PST of that day. SureFire’s website will not reflect sale items and prices until the sale begins at midnight EST on the 26th of November. To view sale items and prices, as well as to purchase sale items, visithttp://www.surefire.com after 12:00 a.m. E.S.T. on November 26th, then click on the “SureFire Cyber Monday Sales Event” banner, or on the “Gifts” banner at the bottom of the home page. Sale prices and free shipping are limited to stock on hand, so loyal customers can be sure to start their holiday shopping early on November 26th.   

Kingston 64GB microSDXC Class 10 Flash Card Review

"Up for review today I’ve got another microSD card, well actually it’s technically a microSDXC card. The card is the newest 64gb from Kingston which is a class 10 card offering minimum speeds of 10 mb/s, which should be fine for any HD recording that you might need or want to do. I’ve put it up for comparison against several other microSD cards I’ve got on hand and this new card from Kingston performs well overall. It’s not the fastest of the bunch, but it sure is the biggest, so if you need storage space, then Kingston has got you covered.  "
