We Didn't Get Scammed on Wish: A Revolution in Handheld Gaming

Let's go! Let's go. We got ourselves a Nintendo Switch, boys. What are we gonna do with it now? I never make Wishery tech episodes assuming that we actually get the things we're asking for. I think we can finally say for the first time in years, we did not get scammed on Wish.

Erm, actually. No, don't take this away from me, Matt. We paid about at least 30 to $40 too much compared to other outlets selling the same SKU. eBay's got it for $235, $240. Walmart's got it for $227. I wouldn't call that a scam. I think there are people that would see it and be like, "wow, that's actually not a bad price." It's just, could you do better? Yes. But I don't think that's a scam.

You know, you could have just held your tongue and I would've been really happy. You didn't have to crush my spirits like this. This, my friends, is a revolutionary piece of technology hidden in my hand, you can see a mysterious item of technology. Oh look, it's a mouse. $8 well spent, my friends.

That's the Microsoft Arc, but just cheaper. All right, I now can successfully mouse, and then when I'm done, straight in the pocket. Who takes a mouse with them like that? You know one problem with this?

(Plastic cracks) Matt laughs. Thanks from watching. I appreciate you. Am I just trying to fill time while Ken shoots B-roll in the background and I've got the camera all to myself? Absolutely not.

But the thing is, sometimes it's really important for me to be able to talk to you all and have a great time and give you exactly what's on my mind because realistically, it's important that you know that I love you and care about you, and I'm not just begging for you to subscribe to the channel and ring-a-ling the ding-a-ling button.

I'm gonna go ahead and dibs on this one. I remember what this is. I've wanted one of these forever. Hello friends. Oh God. We have Daft Punk at home. I am graft dunk. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Badum, boom, boom, boom,boom, boom, boom, boom. Badum, boom, boom, badum, badum.

I am basically ready to come on madeon's next live show. It's just the lowest bar of cool. What, wearing a Wish shirt with fake Yeezys and a visor isn't cool to you, Matt? I will defeat GI Joe. (laughs)

What were you saying? The bad guys from GI Joe. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, them movie I definitely watched. No, the cart... Oh yeah, the cartoon. Yeah, that one. Oh, the mini games player.

So this was $30. Puts it in a tier of what's probably gonna be trash. We've got ourselves an on off switch. The A, B, X, Y, start, reset, speaker, 2.4-inch display, a very pleasant green color. I'll say it is so small that it is not ergonomic. Like my fingers and my hands are basically squished side by side right now to get this.

Okay, so it does have a bunch of emulators on it, which is good because I don't think you can actually load anything up. (Electronic game music) Speaker's not great. Space invaders, there we go, now that, all right. Dude, I mean, this is actually loaded up with a lot of fairly decent games.

The latency also is really reasonable. I'm legitimately really surprised with this. It actually is good. $20.

That was 20 bucks, but then you pay 10 bucks shipping. $30, not bad. This is actually, legitimately, one of the best little emulators I've ever tried. Oh, that's heavy.

All right, friends. We saved the worst for last because everyone would click away as soon as they saw these. (Laughs) Whoa, whoa. Found some Pokémon cards. So supposedly, this was a two-pound lot of just trading cards. Oh boy. You paid $65. I did not pay $65 for this.

No, this is by far the most expensive thing you paid for other than the Switch. I'm learning some stuff here. See one man's treasure is another man's trash and I mean the other way around.

Wheat?- White it is.Hey Austin, your shoes arelooking a little dirty.- Wishtery tech Yeezys.- Well, did youfind something good?- Got fake boobs for some reason?- Oh, that's a good alternative.- I found some sport-550s for 14 bucksand the black andWhite's actually not bad.It doesn't look very Yeezy though.But then again, I guessI'm not trying to fake it,I'm just trying to make it.- Oh.- Oh.- This is cool. Okay. Okay. Okay.So the upgraded, ultra thin card,2.4 inch handheld video game console.Now what's getting mehere is this thumbnail'cause this thing is aboutas thick as a micro USB port.It looks super, super thin.Also clear screen.They blurred the screen,they called it clear screen.- What?- 19 bucks, rechargeable battery.Let's give it a shot.(Austin guffaws)- Oh no.AMD-- Oh.- XFS, not XFS.- Uh-oh- RX 570 GPU box.(both laugh)$3, man.

Think about it, Jared.My Xbox Series X runsthree to five degreeswarmer than I'd like.- I will let you have this.- Thanks Jared. Appreciate you.Thanks for supporting me.A Hadskable Switch for 266 bucks.$266 actually is a reasonable pricefor a refurbished Switch,but what's Hadskable?- Norwegian for trustme and buy this product.- I'm feeling pretty good now.We might just have all the things we needfor this episode of Wishtery tech.Hey, Jared.- What's up?- I got you something.- What is this?- Oh, you'll find out.(carnival music)- What is this?Why are you giving this to me?- I just, I sawit and I thought about you.- How do I look?- You looklike I need to make sureyour girlfriend never sees this video.- You know, the mostawkward part about thisis that my grandmother's dead.(explosion booms)(both laugh)- Yo.I caught that one andyou better be impressed.Shoes from the artistformally known as Kenny East.- Is now Kanye West.- So let me get rid of these Adidas.- I like how youjust went down three incheswhen you took off those shoes.- Yeah, Matt, it's calledtaking your shoes off.- Do they smell like Wish?- Payless.- Payless.- Payless.- Yeah. Yeah. I figured.- You think Kanye wouldsign my fake Yeezys?- Nope, no.- Look at this. Look at this.Look at the style I'vegot right now, friends.Look at that.$40. Wish.com.All right.I've actually finally learnedhow to do something well,which is to catch packages.So as we all know, theXbox Series X is a consolethat through all of thethe hard hours of workthat the Microsoft engineers put in,clearly is in need of a cooling fan.Okay, so it has twolittle fans on it, right?And it's powered by a USB porton the back of the console.So if I plug it inhere, you do lose a USB.I mean, it does fit pretty well.You still have access toall of your other ports.So let's see how loud theSeries X is from the front.So it is about 40decibels, which to be fair,there's definitely, likethis room is not dead silent.Now I'm going to turn on the fan.About 45 decibels.It is loud.I cannot with my ears, Icannot hear the series Xwhen it's running in normal circumstances,until it gets really, really warm,and even then it's still pretty quiet.This fan, I can 100% hear without a doubt.Like it's just properly loud.All right.So this is economy, is theonly description on this one.- Yeah, that's the whole economy.- It's the whole economy?- Yeah.- So that means it's inflatingevery minute as it floats away?Plug and drive OBD 2economy chip tuning box.15% fuel save for benzene cars.I've wanted to try oneof these for a long timebecause these sell.I see them every time we do Wishtery tech.How much was this, Matt?- $8, when you factor in shipping.- This is without adoubt absolutely a scam.Now that my cars ECU has been remapped,let's see how much of adifference it really makes.(car revs)- You didn't even test anything.- There was so much extrapower, I couldn't even help it.I think I just saved myselflike a hundred miles per gallon.- In what world?- I'm gonna go and save some more fuel.I'll see you later.(car vrooms)What? Are you justgiving me all the items?- Rapid fire.- I'm gonna go with the big one first.Oh, it did show up.My Galaxy Z Flip 3 case from Wish.com.I truly believe it is the greatest deviceever crafted by human hands,which is why I'm going to cover it upwith this ugly purplecase that cost me $7.- Way more than that.- $13.- Way more than that.- $24.- $21.- Mm. Okay.- You could havebought a real case for that.- I will say this isnow the chunkiest devicethat has ever been crafted.I love my Z Flip,so I'm not gonna carelesslytoss this around the room,but what I will do, I'll do a pocket test.And that looks like anormal Z Flip, right?- Z Flip fade right there. Mm.- People doubt me that Iuse a Z Flip every day.Well, my pants don't lie.- I just don't like that.- Okay.We've got the ring.- Oh. Oh.- Matt, do you take this ring to...- Oh no, wait.(Austin laughs)- Is this actually tech?- No, it literallysays mood ring, FYI.- Oh wait, there's a screen.There's a screen, Matt.- 34 is showing up now.So it's showing us thatlike the body temperature.So you would know if I had a fever.- I look at your ring.Hey Ken, you look a little clammy today.Let me check your ring to see if you-- I look a little clammy.- This, my friends, is a microphone.Now the photo on Wish showedthis plugged into your laptop.This is gonna be great.Oh, it doesn't even see it.So this does not work on my laptop. Huh?I'm gonna try this going into a phone.So this is what it sounds liketo use this high quality Wish microphoneconnected to my phone via an adapter.So this isn't what it sounds liketo use this high quality Wish microphoneconnected to my phone via an adapter.All right and this is what it sounds likejust using the microphone on my phone.Is there any difference at allor did we just get scammed by Wish?All right, and this is what it sounds likejust using the microphone on my phone.Is there any difference at allor did we just get scammed by Wish?- I still think thatyou were using the phone-- The phone microphone.Matt, this 100% doesn't work.No, Ken, we don't evenhave to test anymore.It's a bipole, it's not a tripole.- That's what we'retrying to say. That's what-- It's literally notconnected to anything.- Yeah. Yeah.- Wait, wait, wait.(high pitched buzz)Test. Test. Test.- Oh, God.- Test.- Oh God, it sounds awful.(high pitched buzz)- Hello and welcome. That sounds horrible.That had a little bit moreof a meaty thud to it.Oh my goodness.It finally happened.I've been trying to purchase game consoleson Wish for years now.Is this actually a Nintendo Switchor is this a brick inside a box?(rocks thud)So they obviously haveresealed it, which is fine.Yeah. Fair enough.This does look like a red box Switch.Doesn't have any more performancethan any other Switch.What it does, comparedto the launch Switches,is have a whole lot more battery life.So if we really got ared box Switch for $270,that's a pretty reasonable price.- Woo, okay, we've gotan actual Switch hereand it is a dash oh one,so this is an actual red box Switch.Okay, we ordered a cheapNintendo Switch on Wishand got a essentially brand new Switch.This actually might bethe time we didn't get scammed on Wish.Let's go.
