If you take your board games with you often to game night or to your friend’s house, this backpack will help you transport them. The Ultimate Boardgame Backpack is designed and sold by GeekOn. It’s a huge-ass backpack specifically designed for carrying board games – at least the square boxes.
It comes in a variety of colors and includes all kinds of features like an expandable main compartment, waterproofing, two koozies, and a bunch of other zippered pockets for things like laptops, notepads and more. It is so big in the back that it looks pretty silly when fully loaded.
If you fall down while wearing this thing, you’ll be stuck on the floor like a turtle on it back. There are also optional accessories like elastic straps for your games, a waist strap, dice case and tray, and more. Hopefully, it won’t mess up your boxes either when you cram them all in there – I know how gamers like to keep their stuff in pristine condition.
Enjoy your slipped disc and other assorted back problems. Oh and it costs $200, so I’m sure some players will opt to just buy some more games with their money instead.

One of the coolest cars ever made is the Lancia Stratos Stradale. It was rare and very fast in its day. If you happen to own the awesome LEGO Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS construction kit, there are some new instructions out that will let you build the Lancia with the same kit.
The build requires 2197 parts altogether – about 500 shy of the Porsche. If you want your LEGO Stratos Stradale to work perfectly, you will need a 32187 Technic Driving Ring Extension to enable reverse gear. If you don’t care about reverse gear, you can build the Lancia with only the parts in the kit with five working forward gears.
You can buy the full instructions via Rebrickable for 15 euro (or about $17 USD.) I wonder who the genius was who came up with this build was; they deserve a beer and a round of applause.

It seems like every other game is getting a battle royale mode these days. That’s just how popular it has become. However, one game that you would have least expected to get it in would have been Tetris. Not to be outdone by the Fortnites and the Apex Legends of the world, Nintendo has announced Tetris 99, its very own take on a battle royale mode for this popular puzzle title.
Tetris 99 was announced during the latest Nintendo Direct in which the company also announced Super Mario Maker 2 in addition to providing more details about the incoming Fire Emblem title for the Switch.
Much like other battle royale games, Tetris 99 players will be competing against each other online until only one emerges victorious. Obviously, since this is a puzzler there won’t be any fort building or advanced weaponry. What players can do is attack others with “garbage” which pushes them closer to the top of the screen and eventually out of the game. Players earn “KO” badges for any opponent that they knock out of the game.
Tetris 99 is going to be available exclusively for Nintendo Switch Online members. Nintendo has also said that there will be online events for this title soon as well.

In what might mark the end of new quad-engined jumbos, Airbus has announced that it will end production of its A380 superjumbo in 2021. It’s the largest passenger plane ever that was built to best Boeing’s iconic 747. Merely 12 years after it first took to the skies in 2007, Airbus is now ending the program.
Airbus had expected that airlines would embrace the larger plane that could travel longer distances. However, around the same time that the A380 first flew, new twin-engine jets that were more fuel efficient arrived.
The Boeing 787 uses composite materials, is extremely fuel efficient, and more comfortable for passengers as well since it’s considerably quieter. It even has the same 14,800 km range as the A380 with the equivalent consumption of 102 mpg per seat as opposed to 72 mpg per seat for the Airbus superjumbo.
Airbus has been struggling to win new orders for the plane even as airlines have opted for some of its other offerings like the A350-900 and the A350-1000. Emirates is the largest operator of the A380 and even it has decided to reduce its A380 order book by 39 aircraft to 123 from 162 aircraft previously.
Airbus will thus manufacture 14 new A380s for Emirates over the next two years. “As a consequence and given the lack of order backlog with other airlines, Airbus will cease deliveries of the A380 in 2021,” it said.
