We'll have all this and more because this is Kinda Funny Games Daily. Yo, what's up? Welcome to Kind of Funny Games Daily for Friday, November 22nd, 2024. I'm one of your hosts, Blessing, Addy Oye Jr.
Who is Gary Whitta and what is his role?
Joining me is the force that is, Gary Whitta. Good morning. Morning, Gary. How's it going?
Yeah, good. This is my third time doing this in relatively short succession. This is good. I know.
I think that the fans have demanded it.
You should just make this a regular thing. Let's just say it's a regular thing.
I'm trying to get Whitta Whitta's things back. I don't care what day of the week it is. I love having you back, Gary, of course. I love that you've came with trinkets and a gift.
I've got a little bit of show and tell for you today. Yeah, what's up with all this? Because you said it was a slow news day, so... I mean, do you want to just do it now? Yeah, let's do it now. So I brought... You know we were talking about retro emulation and handhelds and things like that. I actually brought a couple of the handhelds in, because I know you were curious about them. Yes.
What gift did Gary bring for Blessing?
So we can... We'll take a very quick look at those if you're interested. But first, I wanted to wish you...
Oh!
A Merry Christmas. Oh, I'm so excited for whatever this is. For audio listeners, Gary here has a gift that he's just presented me, right? If I'm going to guess, I'm going to guess that this is some kind of really cool British snack.
No, it's related to something we were talking about recently. And by the way, I have to give Leah credit. She rapped this, because I can't rap for shit.
I was going to say, this is really good rapping. She did. I feel bad for just tearing it open. No, no, no.
I agree. It's like a nice cake that you don't want to cut into. Oh, my God. No way. Holy shit. Gary. You said you wanted one, right? Gary. You were curious about getting one. Gary, thank you so much.
Can I give you a hug? This is awesome. Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah, give me a hug. I was just going to give you a fist bump. Okay.
This is so nice. Oh, you're welcome. Merry Christmas.
Oh, man. Gary got me an Apple TV. Holy shit. Look at this. Here, camera, if you want to zoom in. Holy shit.
It's by far, I think, the best box that you can plug into your TV for Netflix and whatnot. And the Apple Arcade stuff with games is really good. I know you said you were curious, but you were not sure about getting one.
And I was mainly scared about falling down the Apple pipeline of getting one of these. Well, I worried about that.
I don't want to turn you into an Apple junkie. I don't think this is necessarily a gateway drug. It's just a really good little box. I think you'll enjoy having that connected to your TV.
Because the only thing I have right now is my Amazon Fire Stick. And I like it, but there are things every now and then where I'm like, man, the connectivity between my Fire Stick and my Alexa app isn't as strong as I'd like it to be. It doesn't listen half the time.
This is such a big step up from a Fire Stick. It's not even funny. Yeah. You can pair a dual sensor and Xbox controller to that and play your... uh play the apple arcade games on it or you can get the steam link app and you can run you can steam link games from your pc um and you can also run emulators on it you can put retro arc on it and run emulated games you can do all kinds of stuff that's all you need to hear yeah oh my god thank you so much for this you're very welcome man you're very welcome once you get it connected let me know how uh how it works out for you will do now i want to talk about these handhelds because i'm looking at them and i i love the aesthetic of these right that one on the left right
