Top 10 Best Gift Ideas For The Ultimate Video Gamer
Gaming is a great way of escaping everything bad happening right now, especially a global pandemic that seems to be showing no signs of stopping its lethal spread. Whether it is in the form of an action adventure, fighting or racing game, it gives you and other people a much needed respite in the face of the stress (or dangers) of everyday life.
As a gamer, you may want something that can either boost overall gaming experience, fuel long gaming sessions or simply show dedication to gaming in general. Alternatively, if you have a gamer in your life, you may want to buy a gift that is in line with what he/she has at the moment. Whatever your criteria, there are gifts available online that can bring color and variety to every avid video gamer's game time. From gaming peripherals to even gaming-themed items, these gift ideas should help you get started:
This unique poster from Gift Republic features a carefully selected list of 100 games to try on your bucket list, ranging from classics such as Space Invaders and Tetris all the way to more recent releases such as Angry Birds and Pokemon Go. Once you tried/finished any of the above-listed games, you can scratch the blank to reveal a graphic that reflects what the game is about.
If you want to keep yourself going while playing your favorite game, then you will need some snacks on hand, and this snack box from Cravebox has you covered. Each box is loaded with 60 salty, sweet and healthy snacks such as Quaker's and Kirkland's Chewy Granola Bars, Pringles, and Welch's Fruit Snacks.
This set of 48 gaming-themed bookmarks from Fun Express can either be bought for yourself or given as a gift to any gamer in your life. Made with laminated paper, each bookmark is printed with a gaming-related reference, with one saying "Saving Progress" and the other saying "Paused."
Staring at a screen for too long can cause visual fatigue and stress -- something to keep in mind if you are engaging in longer gaming sessions. To offset this, you will need a pair of gaming glasses such as those from J+S. It blocks 90% of harmful blue light from screens, and has spring-loaded temples for a comfortable fit for all head sizes.
Graphics are not the only thing that matters when it comes to gaming. Get the best of high-quality audio in your games with headsets such as the SteelSeries Arctis 1. Available in wired and wireless options, it has a steel-reinforced headband that easily adjusts to various head sizes while remaining lightweight and durable, and features a detachable ClearCast bidirectional microphone that has superior noise cancellation so that your voice sounds clear and natural to those who hear them.
These smart LED light bulbs from Philips are just what you will need to set up the lighting you wanted for your next gaming session. Each bulb lets you choose from White, White Ambiance or Color options, and can even be voice-controlled via smart home devices such as those powered by Amazon Alexa, Apple Homekit or Google Assistant.
For those owning a Nintendo Switch, this controller charging dock from Fastsnail is a must-have. It can charge up to four Joycons or one Pro controller and two Joycons simultaneously, and has four visually appealing LED lampposts that indicate the charging level of each joycon. It is available in three colors on Amazon.
My Arcade's Retro Machine is preloaded with 200 or 300 retro-style games that can be played for hours of fun. Measuring 5.75 inches tall and operating on three AA batteries, it is compact and portable enough to be brought anywhere or stored in small spaces. For a better gaming experience, it comes with a 2.5-inch full-color screen, along with a speaker and volume control for added sound.
Play like a king with the X-Rocker Pro Series H3 gaming chair. It has four built-in forward-facing speakers with a powered subwoofer that lets you fully experience immersive sound whether you are gaming, blasting your playlist or watching a movie, and also comes with a side control panel with volume, bass control, input/output jacks and a personal headphone jack. When not in use, it can be folded for easy storage.
If you do not take extra care of your hands while gaming, sooner or later you might suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, tendonitis or any other disorder involving your joints. That is why you will need a pair of arthritis gloves such as those from Copper Point. They are infused with copper to keep your hands dry and warm, and each has a sleek design that allows you to wear either by themselves or under a glove.
