Choosing a gift for a gamer can be difficult, especially if you're not a gamer yourself. You want to get them something that:
- The don't already own
- Works with the stuff they've got
- They'll actually like
Ahead of Drew's TV segment, he's thoughtfully put together a collection of gaming gifts sure to level up the delight for that special someone during the holidays.
If you watched Breakfast Television this morning and want to know more about the gaming gear Drew Kozub talked about you're in the right spot!
Nintendo Switch 2
Nintendo's latest console was released in June and was an instant smash hit, setting records for being the fastest-selling console (not just Nintendo console) in history.
This means, a lot of gamers have the system, so they could be looking at some great accessories or games to go with their console (which you'll find a lot of options right here).
However, if that someone on your holiday list has yet to make the upgrade, now is the perfect chance to surprise them with the Nintendo Switch 2:
Gaming Everywhere
The system is perfect for playing on the go solo or with a friend. And when you're at home, you just slide the Nintendo Switch 2 into the included dock to play your games on the big screen.
Nintendo Nostalgia
The gaming library brings favourite characters like Donkey Kong and puts them in new settings (check out Donkey Kong Bananza) or adds new elements to favourite franchises with titles like Mario Kart World. It even enhances existing favourites by bundling them together with improved graphics for the latest gen consoles (Super Mario Galaxy 1 + Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a great example).
New Experiences
Nintendo has never shied away from innovation and the Nintendo Switch 2 is a prime example. Using your Joy Cons 2 as a mouse is a cool new way to experience games. The dedicated chat button on the controls opens up a new way to game with friends. And the addition of Game Cube Games to the Nintendo Switch Plus Expansion library are among the things you can only get with the Nintendo Switch 2.
Mario Kart World Bundle

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a great gift for the gamer on your list or a fun console to introduce to your family's home. The exclusive library of Switch 2 titles is robust. The backwards compatibility to play virtually all Switch games means you have years of titles to choose from. Then if you add a Nintendo Switch Online Membership + Expansion Pass you can access retro titles from Game Boy, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Game Cube, and more!
While you can buy the console on it's own, you get the best value by picking up the Mario Kart World bundle. And it ensures that whoever you gift that to will have a game that you can play right alongside them during your holiday celebrations!
VITURE Luma Ultra
VITURE is a company that is makes exceptionally feature reach smart glasses and somehow manages to keep the prices affordable relative to their cutting-edge tech. The VITURE Luma Ultra are their most recent smartglasses and they're an absolute powerhouse for gaming and productivity (I say as I type this article on an airplane while enjoying a triple-monitor virtual display).
I've tried three pairs of VITURE Luma glasses and the standout pair is the VITURE Luma Ultra. For a deep dive into these glasses read the full review or watch the YouTube review below.
If you just want the short version of what makes these glasses so great: - Beautiful Screen: 152-inch virtual display wherever you go - 6-degrees of freedom: this is the futuristic aspect that separates these glasses from others) - Extremely Compact: easily throw these in your backpack or purse for daily use) - Device compatibility: Use these with your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or gaming console
These glasses are also amazing for watching movies or shows thanks to a feature that renders videos in 3D (even if they weren't shot in 3D).
Smart Glasses

For those looking for the best gaming experience with smart glasses, the VITURE Luma Ultra should be at the top of your list. On their own, they're phenomenal for gaming, watching movies, and even plugging into a laptop for productivity and privacy on the go. When paired with the Smart Neckband, an even more futuristic experience is unlocked. For a VITURE discount code use DrewKozub at checkout to save 10 percent on your order.
The focus of this article is on gaming, but I have to vouch for the productivity aspect, because I now cannot travel without these. When you wear them on a plane you get the perfect displays to actually work productively (or enjoy a movie or show) with the perfect balance of privacy (where you don't really notice the people next to you if you're crammed into a middle seat) and awareness (you won't miss the snack cart as it trundles down the aisle).
Renpo Massagers
Renpho is a brand that makes really high quality health and lifestyle products, so why include them in a gaming article? For a long gaming sessions, they have two great options that are the ultimate in luxury comfort (and recovery).
First the Shiatsu Foot Massager is a perfect gamer gift to turn gaming time into selfcare time. When you've got a console or controller in your hands you can slide your feet right into the Shiatsu Foot Massager and let the device work it's magic!

The Shiatsu Foot Massager is the latest model from Renpho. It uses air pressure and heat to gently knead your feet into comfort. While you're playing video games, watching TV, or scrolling on your phone, it's a great way to get a quick rejuvenating massage treatment while you're multitasking.
This thing is a serious massage tool with plenty of degrees of comfort settings based on your preference. I find medium kneading and air pressure are right for me, while my wife goes max on all settings.
Second, if your wrists are hovering over a gaming keyboard or your hands are clawed around a controller for hours on end, you might benefit from some percussive therapy. Renpho's Active+ Thermacool Massage gun is a top notch gadget that truly every household should have on hand.

It's only been about a year since I first discovered Renpho and in that time I've slowly adopted more and more products into my everyday life. Their build quality is high and the user experience is great.
OnePlus 15
If you're an Android smartphone user and OnePlus isn't on your radar, let's get you acquainted right now so you're not missing out the next time you're due for an upgrade.
For years, OnePlus was well-known in tech circles. But two years ago, with the release of the OnePlus 12, they really broke through to a new level of popularity with "regular" smartphone users who had just enough tech-savvy to note the specs of a OnePlus device compared to other Android options and then note the price difference for comparable devices.
OnePlus delivers exceptional value with their smartphones and the OnePlus 15 is no different:
- Battery Beast: This thing has one of the largest smartphone batteries available lasting a full 24 hours no problem.
- Charger In The Box: While most companies have ditched this, OnePlus continues to hold the line offering a charger and cable with their smartphones.
- Incredible Display: Optimized for gamers with an astounding 165Hz refresh rate, this 1.5K display looks amazing for everything, but particularly games.
- Processing Powerhouse: For intensive gaming, AI tasks, or even in the ultra-rare instance you use this device to make a phone call the internal components will make sure everything is snappy and smooth

OnePlus 15 is a near-perfect smartphone with excellent battery life, a beautiful display, a sleek finish, and processing power to spare. It runs on Android-based OxygenOS, which allows you to get as customized as you want to dial in your smartphone experience. For gamers, between the display and "Power Trinity," this is a premiere mobile experience for playing video games.
If you can't tell, I'm a big fan of OnePlus phones. I didn't even get into the photo and video capabilities (incredible zoom and incredible image stabilization). Truly, next time you're upgrading your phone give OnePlus a look.
What do you think of the latest collection of gadgets from the Geeking Out TV segment?
As always, these are products Drew Kozub has personally tested, which means he actually knows how they work. So if you find yourself with any questions about any of the tech you saw in the TV segment, just reach out to Drew (Instagram DMs are probably the simplest) as he will be more than happy to Geek Out with you!
