I Wasted $200 on Wish...

- Wow. That's much better than what you normally throw on the table. Hello and welcome to a very special edition of Mystery Tech, featuring money, because yes, this time I can buy my own things. Thanks, Ken. The rules are very simple. I have a budget of $200 to order things from a little site called Wish. Now, a little stipulation is that I have to use this flash buy feature, so as soon as I press this button, a 10-minute timer will start. How many items will I receive? 20, okay. Alright, I've unlocked 20 products. Let's see what we have. Well, first thing is, what is this, a smart watch?

I mean, that seems reasonable. This really looks good, right? - You need that. - Alright. What, what are these sneakers? I. - Get some sneakers. - Fashionable red sneakers? Yes, yes, I mean that. There's an 11-inch 4G-enabled big-screen Android tablet for $75. I'm turning red because why not? Oh gosh, I already spent $145. Oh. Man, I feel like I have everything great now. - Well, now you are forced to buy things that are not good. Welcome to Mystery Tech. - What happens if I cheat and go into normal Wish and look for other interesting things? Okay, I'm just going to cheat.

Oh, some free 4GB classic games? Yes, yes, it's okay. Alright. Oh, what, oh, it's a Vita. Oh wait, no, I want this one. Oh look, a Game Boy. Hey, I want Game Boy. Yes, yes, yes, connect me. $14? Look, you can buy fake money. There are 100 $100 bills for $1. I mean, let's face it, this all basically seems like hot garbage. Oh hello. We could get a Huawei SD card, apparently 256 GB, for $3. I don't see how we can go wrong here. - Definitely get two of those. - Ah, it's a corset for a boy, okay. Good. Fake Joy-Cons? Dude, these Joy-Cons are like double the size.

I am absolutely buying them. Wait, for Wii U, for Switch or for Switch Precision Edition? - What is a Switch Precision Edition? - I don't know, I guess we're about to find out. It costs $33. There is also a fake Pro controller, should we do that? - Yes Yes. - I mean, it looks a bit similar. That, my friends, is all we need from Wish. So I guess now we'll have to wait like three months for this to appear and see if it's any good. Although I don't think it is. (strange howl) - Three months later. - Well, it's been a couple of months and we finally have all of our Wish items, as well as facial hair with much fewer features.

So let's see what trash city we have to deal with. It's been so long that at this point I forgot what we ordered. Oh yeah, this stupid thing. Oh, does it come with an adapter? Good. This is our Huawei 256GB microSD card, which cost, how much did it cost? - $5.75. - Oh yeah. So less than $6. Now, I have an incredibly strong suspicion that this is actually a 256GB card. This is almost certainly not a Huawei microSD card either, judging by the generic memory card box. Some capacity listed is used for formatting and other functions and is not available for storage.

Something tells me that for some it will be like, 240 of the 256GB. I think Linus made a video showing how some of the SD cards that look like they have a lot of capacity are actually fake, and instead when you start filling them up they delete old files. So I'll try transferring a bunch of images and see if it really works. Then I open the properties and it shows as a 249 GB drive. I mean, that would be technically correct. That's weird. Is this really real? Dude, it's at 65 KB per second right now. I don't think I have the patience for this.

Pssh. That had a lot more bounce than I thought. Oh, they're the stupid fake Joy-Cons. Do you know that Wish sponsors the Lakers? Literally the only logo on Lakers jerseys is Wish. I mean, at first glance you could be forgiven for thinking these are real Joy-Cons, but they feel like they're almost twice as big. Let me grab an actual set of Joy-Cons. So for comparison, here's what a legit Joy-Con looks like. Now, it's pretty much the same shape, although on the back you can see there's a little ridge, but it's much larger. Much larger. (laughs) My Switch is like an inch wider now. (laughs) Oh, it worked.

Ayyy, look at that. Appears as two real, real Joy-Cons. So if I plug them in, it won't actually charge them, so I can use them like a normal wired Joy-Con, but it's still connected via Bluetooth. So it will drain the battery this way. Dude, this really isn't that bad. I mean, the buttons don't feel that great and I

wish

they actually loaded, but, I mean, I'm not doing very well here, but. Now, I will say one thing, the fact that they have this little edge on the outside, that even though they are larger, they actually fit better in my hands.

The standard Joy-Cons are fine, but I sometimes feel like I'm a little bit grippy, while this feels a little better, I'm not going to lie. It still looks cheap, but it's not bad. AHA. So the next part, which is probably a little less strange, is this Nintendo Switch Pro controller, or the Pro controller for the N Switch, because it's obviously not a Nintendo product. I mean, at first glance it looks exactly like a standard Pro controller. This looks like they just used the original mold for this. Literally on the back it says support.nintendo.com. I think they actually took a legit mold of the actual Pro controller and just removed the word Nintendo here, because that's exactly where Nintendo would be.

It says, Germany support for Nintendo. I mean, this is just a Pro controller. (Laughs) The buttons feel the same, the sticks feel the same. Actually, wait a second. Can I change my smart address? Well. Dude, it even has the gyroscope. If you're a little uncomfortable buying something that's very, very obviously a knockoff, I totally understand why you wouldn't want to get this, but as far as I can tell, it's straight up a Pro controller. Now, maybe it'll break at some point, maybe. There might be a train outside blocking my line, but this one is legit, just a Pro Controller that someone just took the Nintendo badge off and is selling it for something like that.

Half the price. Oh God. The fake money. Okay, does this look real on camera right now? Because this is the most fake thing I have ever seen in my life. It's mostly incredibly blurry. It looks like if you printed it yourself on a 1999 printer, this is what it looks like. For fake money, it doesn't say fake money anywhere. There's nothing like props, comedy-only use or anything like that, there's literally just a little bit of Chinese writing on the back and that's it. Actually, this seems like it's probably illegal. Wait, is this illegal? I think this is, oh.

These things bounce around really weird, right? Alright, we'll leave out my fake money. I will say one thing: it is very, very well packaged. Oh, it's the fake iPad, excellent. Oh wait, no, it's not an iPad, is it? It looks like one from the front. Actually, well, it looks like one from every angle. I mean, I'm not going to lie. This is not the worst fake iPad I have ever seen. I mean, they have a little notch here. Actually, that appears to be real metal. However, that screen doesn't look good. And this is definitely a fake button.

That doesn't do anything. I don't know, I think if you show this to grandma, she'll probably think you have an iPad and not some $52 crappy tablet that's also dead. I'm not going to lie, we've been doing pretty well so far. There have definitely been some flops, but things like the Switch controller seem great, the iPad, if it really wants to turn on, maybe seems fine. Maybe. Maybe. Oh, all good. In case you're curious, this isn't a real iPad. - Is that a headphone jack on the side? - Oh yes (laughs), the headphone jack is on the side.

Alright. Android 8.1? That? Actually? Actually, that's not so bad. Is this really going to be decent? I didn't really think this was going to be any good, but it actually doesn't seem like the worst thing I've tried, especially for $50. Although I guess for $50 you could get a Fire tablet. Wow, hey. Update on this guy. Now it has magically jumped to 19 MB per second on the transfer. Actually, is it working or did it just like failover to the fake version where it is deleting my old files? Now I'm suddenly a little uncomfortable with the idea of ​​having plugged a random microSD card into my computer.

Maybe I shouldn't have done that. In fact, it could have been a very bad idea. - I mean, it's a Huawei one, so what's the-- - (laughs) - What's wrong with that? - That frame rate is really not good. But 480p, come on man? Is that the best you can do in 480p? Thats not all. So it's not good for videos. It sounds bad and plays videos at a speed of 12 frames per second. Uh, maybe I'll just buy a Fire HD 7 or something else. I bet you could get a used iPad for this price. - Oh yeah, you probably can. - Oh.

That seems a lot less terrible. This is our fake PSP. So there are a lot of these fake systems out there, but I've never actually tried any of them. Oh man, it's supposed to be a mini Vita. It even has all the little triangles and things on the back. Oh. It's very exciting when you launch it. Wait, this is just a bunch of ROMs? I have Super Mario, Contra, Street Fighter, Crash Bandicoot. Wait. Is this legit just as an emulator? Dude, it's actually Super Mario. Okay, this emulation is... oh my god. (laughs) Friend. It's like a half second delay when I press something.

I mean, this is legit! Wait wait wait. I'm trying to play Mario right now, what are you doing, throwing me a Game Boy? Wait. Wait. I'm enjoying Mario, man. That? Wait, wait, buddy, this isn't bad. I mean, it's still weird, but I can't believe this isn't hot garbage, man. That? Wait. Wait, buddy, this isn't bad. I mean, it's still weird, but. Oh wait, what buttons do I actually have on the Game Boy? Just A and B, right? (laughs) Stay back. Stay behind. (laughs) (laughs) He's so soft! Come on! Come on! Yeah! Also, I just took off my microphone.

I want to keep playing with this. But wait, wait, what's with the 401 Game Boy? Oh. Did you know? Hey, that's actually not bad. Alright. 401. So we have Super Mario, this thing is just loaded with ROMs. It is simply loaded with ROM. What is this?! Pikachu. What's that?! Hope for? Wait, is this fair? (laughs), is it Dr. Mario? I mean, he's like Tetris, but isn't he? I never played Dr. Mario, but wasn't it something similar to this? - Yes. - Very good, there are definitely a lot of doubles here. They are mainly doubles. Why am I small?

See this? Me too, buddy, I'm too small to jump! (laughs) How can you ruin Mario, man? What is this real? - That? That?! (hysterical laughter) Oh, now you have to play it. - Mario has throwing stars?! Additionally, it runs at eight frames per second. Oh. Oh my god, man, what is this? (laughing) What is this?! Alright, why is my screen flashing? Wait, I think I lost the brightness of the screen. Can you see that flicker? I think I just lost the backlight. We got like five minutes of Super Mario 14 before it was lost to the sands of time.

Look, look, look how bad it is now! (laughs) My screen is dead! All that's really left to do now is see if this sketchballs microSD card actually worked. Then I go to the USB drive. I mean, does this really look like it could have transferred? I literally copied Fortnite. 33 GB. I mean, this works. It definitely works. I don't know if it will actually fill up and it's a little slow, but the microSD card is decent. Unfortunately, the Game Boy was the most promising and died after about three minutes. I mean, who knows? The legend of Mario 14 may never be fully discovered. (laughs)
