Chad's Crappy Corner and another 'cheap gaming gadget', his theme for March.


Chad emailed our loyal (and much appreciated) Patreon supporters and asked them to pick a March, 2016 theme of the month they would like to see. They voted and picked ' cheap gaming gadgets'. And this week's cheap gaming gadget is the Airdrop Gaming HipShotDot.
Here's what Amazon says about it: The HipShotDot (HSD-1619) is the gaming industry's first powered red dot sight attachment for your television. The HipShotDot replaces or enhances your in game sights with a physical USB powered red dot sight. This attachment is made of sturdy and durable materials and is designed for long-lasting use. Improve your KDR, perfect your trick scope, run and gun and shoot from the hip like never before. Level up with the HipShotDot! $14.22 and Amazon Prime as of 3/17/16. It's here on Amazon:

And Chad's take? Chad explained that this works for certain video games where you would be shooting from the hip. Although in the game you often have a scope to aim with, it may disappear or be against a background color that makes it almost impossible to see. The HipShotDot is a single red LED that uses suction cups to stick on your screen. You use it to see exactly were the scope is. Chad explained that for your money you're getting a long cable attached to one red LED at one end, and a USB plug on the other end. He thought the packaging was impressive, but the gadget not so much. He said he might buy one if it was $4, but not $14.00.
