fans of the Fallout series, heck out this new limited edition Pip-Boy.

Fallout Pip-Boy 2000 MK VI Sugar Bombs Limited Edition Replica BY THE WAND COMPANY , BETHESDA

YouTube player

Product Description:

This Sugar Bombs skinned Pip-Boy 2000 Mk VI is a replica model of the pre-war Personal Information Processor (PIP) manufactured by RobCo Industries as an updated version of the Pip-Boy 2000. Designed to be worn on the forearm, this Pip-Boy was the last word in convenience, enabling vault dwellers to keep track of their personal stats and inventory on the go. The Mk VI model was only made available to residents and staff of Vault 76.Until recently, this replica had only been available as a kit, but recent developments in manufacturing capability have enabled RobCo Industries and Sugar Bombs’ Customer Outreach and Flavour Research Team to collaborate on the production of this assembled version. The strikingly sweet white and blue livery, decorated with the classic red oval bomb marking and blue accent piping round the display housing, differentiate this Pip-Boy from the traditional version more commonly seen covering the cereal bowl-holding wrist of the average breakfasting vault-dweller.The enjoyment of a replica piece this accurate is increased by its illuminated display panel and vacuum tubes, which, fitted as standard, feature a Malfunction Function with an authentic Tap-to-Fix action. When illuminated for a period of time, the display and vacuum tubes will start to flicker, simulating the erratic function of this well-used piece of field kit. In the time-honored tradition of fixing such transient electronic faults, a sharp tap to the top of the display housing unit is all that is normally required to correct this minor malfunction and return the display to its flicker-free function.This collectible Sugar Bombs skinned Pip-Boy replica is a strictly limited edition. Each one is marked with its own unique number and comes with a specially designed certificate of authenticity endorsed by The Wand Company.

Product Features:

Pip-Boy 2000 MK VI: 8.27 x 6.89 x 6.3 inches (21cm x 17.5cm x 16cm)Holotape: 2.95 x 1.9 x 0.24 inches (7.5cm x 4.8cm x 0.6cm)Made of plasticBased on the Fallout seriesHighly detailedHand-paintedRequires 3 x AAA batteries (included)Box ContentsPip-Boy 2000 MK VI Sugar Bombs replicaHolotapeCertificate of authenticity

Amazon just dropped a new teaser showing the series’ location and expected airing time.

Gamescom attendees got a peak at a video teaser this year, and has been described as:

The footage includes people traversing a hostile wasteland desert, as well as a woman emerging from one of the game’s trademark Vaults. The video also shows glimpses of characters wearing the iconic power armor, a ghoul character wearing a duster, and a quick look at a Vertibird. Finally, there is a short clip of a nuclear explosion, with a nearby city resembling Los Angeles directly in its path.

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/first-fallout-amazon-prime-series-footage-appears-at-gamescom-2023/1100-6517128/

In the short trailer there were glimpses of the Brotherhood of Steel ominously marching across a dusty desert reminiscent of more urban version of Dune’s Arrakis setting, their iconic Vertibird vehicles, a vault opening as a woman shielded her eyes from the sun, multiple nuclear explosions taking place in what looks like a present-day setting, and a shot of who we presume is Walter Goggins’ ghoul character who bore more than a passing resemblance for Fallout 4’s John Hancock.

The latest Nintendo Direct has landed, bringing with it news about upcoming games for players to look forward to. The June 2023 announcements included new announcements for Mario and Pikmin, a new look at the upcoming Pokemon DLC, and more – let’s take a look.

Pokemon DLC

New downloadable content for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has been available for pre-order for a while now, but this Nintendo Direct revealed a new look at the upcoming stories: “The Teal Mask” and “The Indigo Disk.”

YouTube player

In “The Teal Mask,” players will travel to Kitakami, where the Festival of Masks is underway. The storyline brings several Pokemon back into the game, while introducing a handful of new ones: Munkidori, Okidogi, and Fezandipiti, who were said to have “protected this land from the evil ogre.” Savvy viewers will recognize this as a parallel to the story of Momotaro, with the three Pokemon based on Momotaro’s companions. The video also gives us a closer look at said ogre, a new Pokemon called Ogerpon.

“The Indigo Disk” takes the players to Blueberry Academy, a Pokemon academy floating out at sea. Beneath the academy itself is a massive terrarium park, filled with different biomes and Pokemon previously unavailable in the game. It also reintroduces double battles to the game, and provides a closer look at the legendary Pokemon, Terapagos.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players can also receive a handful of items with the Mystery Gift code TREASUREHUNT, and a new Gimmighoul tera raid event has begun. 

Detective Pikachu Returns

While the original Detective Pikachu game was a mostly forgotten side game, it returned to the forefront of popularity with the live action movie, starring Ryan Reynolds as Pikachu and Justice Smith as Tim Goodman. Now, Detective Pikachu is returning with a Nintendo Switch game: Detective Pikachu Returns.

Sonic the Hedgehog

Speaking of successful live action video game movies, Sonic the Hedgehog is also getting a new game: Sonic Superstars. This is a classic side-scroller featuring popular Sonic characters, including the blue blur himself, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose.

Sonic Superstars also introduces local co-op, allowing up to four players to work together as they dash through levels.

YouTube player

Super Mario

Of course, the franchise news doesn’t stop there. Mario fans got no shortage of news from the announcement, featuring the reveal of Super Mario Bros Wonder, a new 2D Mario game coming this October. This new game features classic Super Mario gameplay with upgraded graphics, as well as new enemies and power-ups, such as an elephant suit for Mario, and a new “Wonder Seed” and “Wonder Flowers” items. The game can be played with a variety of characters (not just Mario and Luigi), and features multiplayer capabilities.

YouTube player

Additionally, the classic Super Mario RPG is getting a remake for the Nintendo Switch. This classic role-playing game has been a favorite of many Mario fans, and will be returning with new graphics on November 17, 2023.

YouTube player

Mario’s brother, Luigi, wasn’t left out either. Luigi is also getting a remake with a remastered version of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, originally released on the 3DS. This game will be coming to the Nintendo Switch in 2024, along with a new game featuring Princess Peach.

YouTube player

And Mario’s longtime rival, Wario, is also getting a new WarioWare game. WarioWare: Move It! will be coming to the Nintendo Switch in November, featuring over 200 microgames that can be enjoyed by up to four players at once.

YouTube player

Last but not least, Mario Kart 8 continues to get new support, with the release of the Booster Course Pass Wave 5. This new DLC, available this summer, brings in a new course (Squeaky Clean Spring), and three new characters: Petey Piranha, Wiggler, and Kamek.

YouTube player

Pikmin 4

Nintendo also revealed new information about Pikmin 4, the latest addition to the Pikmin series. This game, due to be released July 21st, includes a Dandori Battle mini-game, as well as a new dog companion named Oatchi, and the ability to set off on night expeditions.

YouTube player

A demo of Pikmin 4 will be available on June 28th. Additionally, HD versions of PIkmin 1 and 2 will be available on the Nintendo Switch eShop today, and can be purchased individually or as a bundle. Physical versions of the games will also be released in September.
