But that hasn't stopped gaming accessory maker Genki from giving us one of the best looks yet at the size and shape of Nintendo's upcoming hardware, as well as a video glimpse of how the console's new Joy-Cons will attach to the base tablet.

Razer has just unveiled the imaginatively-named Laptop Cooling Pad, which is a laptop stand that the company claims can boost your laptop's performance. It may sound like an RGB-smothered gimmick of epic proportions, but we just got hands on with it and can vouch for it actually working. While the best gaming laptops of the world should have enough built-in cooling capacity to maximise their gaming performance, the simple fact of the matter is that they often don't, and even when they do, just resting your laptop on certain surfaces can dramatically affect how well that cooling works. Any sort of laptop stand can help to maximise your laptop's cooling potential, but the Razer Laptop Cooling Pad in conjunction with its Razer Hyperboost feature takes things a step further.

Both are rocking sleek bodysuits that are predominantly white with blue accents, and let’s just say their distinct features aren’t going to save you in a chaotic fight. View the full article
