Arcades used to be extremely popular back in the day with games to summon young kids and teenagers. It was the place to be. Coleco, the company behind these awesome arcade machines, then released mini arcade machines in 1981 and marketed them as “the arcade games you can take home with you,” so you could have the same type of experience but in the comfort of your home. They were quite popular at the time and had the same look and feel as the original arcade machines. Coleco now wants to bring the mini arcade machines back. These arcade machines will be the same as you remember from the 80’s but of course with better technology. They will have the same heavy duty plastic shell, the same classic shape and the same vibrant designs. The two mini arcades that will be introduced will still have the same Berzerk and Frenzy games on them so you can relive your olden days of glory.

Created by Taegu Noh, CEO of PurrSong, specifically for monitoring urinary health for cats, it monitors how much your cat goes per day as well as cleans each time your cat excretes.

The waste drawer can collect the excrement for up to 3 weeks and if lined with a plastic bag, you can simply pull out the bag and throw it away.

It’s hard to know how frequently to water house plants or give them sunlight. With a busy work schedule, kids, and plants, I often forget if I have even watered my plants. For those of us who love plants but often kill them, there’s a new planter to help those plants stay alive. The Lua Smart Planter turns your houseplant into a virtual pet. The planter shows 15 different emotions to show you how your plant is doing and what it needs. The planter has special sensors that measure different things like moisture, temperature and sun exposure. The planter is connected to an app so you simply choose the type of plant, which in turn creates a QR code and the planter will scan the code. The app and the planter direct you on how to take care of it.
