These special editions are insanely cheap nowadays. The latest spongebob game had a collector's edition that cost $250 and came with stuff you'd get out of a quarter machine in front of a drug store. Literally bouncy balls and postcards.

Yeah. I mean, it didn't give me a choice. The very first time I paired it with the app it updated the firmware.
In a way I kinda wish it hadn't because the original software let me tweak the sensitivity of the gyro for the "wake on look" feature but the updated firmware took away those options.

No I mean there's been another update since then that enabled the weather functionality, that wasn't available at launch.

Whenever I load the app it says the watch firmware is up to date (Firmware 2v18.2180).

I've seen much worse collectors editions for the money. At least that one comes with a pretty large statue that looks to be relatively good quality. Not worth the $250 asking price though.These special editions are insanely cheap nowadays.

Can see the figure/statue value maybe being $100-$120 and game being $60... that leaves the other junk at $80 or so. But then again. people buying these aren't interested in value and just want the limited edition item/s plus game.

Because it's a decent watch, regardless of what you think.
It's built well, it looks good, has a comfortable band, long battery life, and has a decent featureset for a low end smartwatch.
When it works.
That's the problem part.

People saying stuff about a game or piece of hardware on here or social media always cracks me up
I just got it to go with my Fallout watch holder, which funnily enough people never had an issue with (I wonder why) In the end like everything outsourced to cheap Chinese labour it's not built to last *rollseyes*

Well, I can play devils advocate for the first part...they did that because that was shipping out weeks before the actual release date of the game. Having the game disc included would've been a disaster, for obvious reasons.
But that second part...yeah, this is obviously not something people should be surprised about.

Probably the most useless electronic gadget I’ve ever purchased. Which is funny as I consider AirPods the most amazing electronic gadget ever.

Not to sound too snarky, but what the fuck were you expecting?
1. Bethesda's pedigree with collector edition items is terrible. TERRIBLE
2. It takes an extreme amount of software and hardware engineering skill to make an actual, functional and long-lasting smartwatch. This was always nothing more than a gimmick item
