so Joey we gotta get down to business fun business okay let's do it we got another edition of wait for it Joe today Joey tell us what you have well I'm just I'm just trying to lift this up into my lap while they look at the demo this is from the darts factory this is the goose to dart board I mean to me the goose Square dartboard it is a digital dartboard with LED lights it has multiple gameplay modes where you can actually play locally with multiple players you know typical cricket or a count up but a nice feature with this is you can also play someone else somewhere else in a game of darts so Brian actually came up with an excellent idea say hey we should get one of you here in New York we already have one in New York but get one in San Francisco and maybe you know a little Joe versus Tong action this don't actually have they're not just sharp no so they're not yet there yeah yeah so they're not sharp darts they're they're plastic tip darts and I would recommend buying an extra pack because we had some pretty aggressive dart players in the office estimate everything breaks but the tips obviously didn't screw and they screw out they're weighted if you want to hold it um it comes with this face plate but they're five different face plates it's magnetic so you can magnetically comes off there is a blue purple pink and I think maybe your red in the Indian well the cut the plate the face plate it's actually nice this way the face plates can be purchased for like 25 bucks this particular model dartboard I saw an Amazon for 245 what's special about this is for all you iPhone or Android or iOS users it works at both KitKat and up the app is that there's a sidekick app that actually keeps the score um so it works with KitKat and uh Bluetooth 4.0 and iOS 7 and up and it either works on four double A batteries but I think what really what really impressed of course it's an imported dart board from the dartboard factory is in the box that came with it they give you not only a measuring tape where you can measure to hang it they give you a sticker pad where you can stand back and with the plug they give you a plug for America you know and pretty much all around the world and you can run it via the outlet or or from the batteries if you just want to leave it plugged in all the time you know if the batteries take it off the wall another thing is the instruction chart which is really cool that comes with it has markings so you can measure up and you can literally and it comes with the screws to hang it so you put the screws in here and you just rip it off the wall and put it so you measure where you put the paper you put the screws through the paper I'm sorry I'm showing you guys what's up Jim you measure where you put it and then you can just rip the paper off the wall and just hang the dartboard right there and you're you're good to go in terms of the app and the dartboard I can flick it on I just turned it on you can also control the LED lights when you turn it on and then you can use sorry this is CNET's ipad not mine so before everybody goes crazy in a chat like this is the app and the app makes sound effects with the dart sitting as well right it's loading so it's loading and you know you got your guest name you decide and I think I created CNET they put CA with hearty music in there yeah the idea here is that two people have the dart boards you can play at the same time so yeah so if you have one at home and I have one at home we could play each other or we could play locally so you just go to settings and you go like to option dartboard connect the dart board it'll connect to the dart board yeah see connected and you can go back and you go new game cricket you get to choice a game you can pick like cricket next then it creates a game I want to add a player very simple somebody has an account I could put their account in there or I could just go guest and I can add another one guest and then I can start game and it connects to the dartboard or create the game then here it highlights the person's turn and you can bring up the menu here it's the person skip or the roster dart you can go back next to the next person options and it keeps everybody score here and what you need to hit also what the dartboard does is honor if you can see it in the studio likes but it lights up where you need to hit you see it if I twist it it lights up where you need to shoot I think so you know you're aiming for so it's it's it's really cool it's really cool arms the guys have fun with it yes a we broke it out for third Thursday yeah Mr McBee in our chat has written do you get dart DLC I don't know if there'll be a dart DLC but um it's it's it's it's a really cool product how much is that this particular one is I saw like it for 2:45 on Amazon there's the Sigma which is the step below this it doesn't it doesn't come with the overlays it's just a completely circular dartboard yeah it doesn't have all the LEDs you know it's it's like the LX it's lacking extras this is this is the creme de la creme but it's a really nice weren't you just but weren't you just showing me like pieces of wire for music for like $200 different though but is it really your headphones or just you how many people can you play darts with I mean money on what they want to spend yeah it depends on how much you value having a scoreboard on your tablet essentially right if you can't which I'm terrible bass I mean I could use something like that yeah I just don't know if I value it at 250 personally it does look pretty cool enough it is cool and I mean hey if you can make a cheaper one go get it go get your Kickstarter going no but I personally think it's cool I haven't personally seen many other than this so I couldn't tell you if it's too high or not yeah but I mean it's it's cheaper than a lot of things you find it is the new Playstations $400 you know you got your own you got Game Boy you know the 3ds is like 179 the I mean when you talk about electronics you're always hitting around the 200 although that seems to be the sweet spot maybe for businesses mr. McBee then wrote back after a reset talk to his question that have you owned a pub that this would be his go-to no doubt well I wanna another nice thing is that if you know like let's say like you know I'm a family man you know I'm not saying you can't take someone's eye out but at least a plastic dart you're not piercing the skin that's true yeah you can actually you can actually play with the young ones and not worry about anything really dangerous happening other than but let everybody play with like glasses and everybody's like you know they're impervious um so how did you dart game game it's better when I drink more or maybe I think it's been I think I think it is better at pool and darts I think seem to be a little better for me when I drink but I have to be right at that that magic spot like not not like going up the hill but not somebody's grade yeah well this is I'll tend to focus better yeah
