this episode of technobuffalo is brought to you by netflix hello internet and welcome back to another episode of ask the Buffalo the show where you can ask me ashley's gather any question you might have from the wide world of technology every tuesday we put up a call for questions on technobuffalo calm you could leave your question in the post comment otherwise you can summon me anytime of the day or night at technobuffalo or at ashleys schedule on twitter just use the hashtag ask the be so i can see it and usually i answered between three and five questions every episode so let's get answering cuz disaster Buffalo what our user at KGC shot says hey Ashley with the nexus 5 just releasing what is your favorite android phone for the year well that is a really good question and i haven't used the nexus 5 a whole lot so I can't say 100% sure that it's you know my favorite phone so I would have to say out of all the phones I've used extensively this year my favorite android phone would be the HTC One it's just such a nice well-designed phone it looks beautiful I actually really like blinkfeed I think it's a really useful integration of a Flipboard like user interface I think it's really good I love video highlights it's one of my favorite things about the phone being able to sort of stitch together all of your zoe's and your pictures from an event into a 30-second recap clip is amazing and really easy to sort of get different clips and recaps tough to family and friends for a different events so I would say the HTC One that's my favorite android phone of 2013 twitter user app Bobbsey one says with the holidays coming up would you recommend a to TS 3ds or XL I sort of have questions to ask you if that's the case because usually it's sort of like someone asking do you think i should get Windows Phone Android or iOS it's like well what do use your phone for and do you prefer to have a lot of productivity in widgets or do you prefer to have a bunch of apps like these are the questions I have to ask you so if you are on a strict budget the 2d s is a great option if you really really want that clam shell but don't want to spend the extra scratch for an XL go with the 3ds but honestly I think if you're gonna go 3ds gotta go big and you got to get the XL so if you're on a strict tight tight budget this holiday season 2 D s is the way to go but if you have the extra money you can't go wrong with the XL josh asks hey ashley what are your thoughts on where nintendo will follow this holiday season with the release of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox one coming up this month what does Nintendo need to do to sell more we use Nintendo is going to be in the same position that it kind of was in last console season which is it's not a bad place to be in but um oddly enough it's sort of a position where it's like it's a secondary console that everybody will kind of get they'll get that one console that they feel they really need whether that's the wii u the xbox one or the playstation 4 and then they'll get a secondary console so the wii u is in a really good place because of its price point to be that secondary console in people's homes a lot of people have families they want more family friendly games obviously Mario still has a huge pull on nostalgia wise with lots and lots of people including myself I definitely think that Nintendo is gonna be in a position in the next five years where people will start really picking up their new next-gen consoles and then saying you know I also really want that new metroid game i really want that new HD Legend of Zelda so it really depends on Nintendo bringing out those really legendary first-party characters in new games that are HD that are gorgeous and that will bring people to the console that's what I think Antonio cool Jack asked hey Ashley when can we expect the new TechnoBuffalo show that was shortly mentioned on rettinger rants if possible can we have a description thanks I can't
