It's that time of year again! The holidays are upon us! And let me tell you, as someone who worked retail, tons of confused frustrated parents are going to be pouring into shops looking to get the gamer in their life an awesome gift. However, most of these parents have no idea what they need or what they will be looking for.
That is where I come in! I compiled a list of all the consoles, games and accessories right here! Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo products can all be found right here! And the best part is, you don't have to go anywhere! You simply click on the image(or blue text) and you will be linked directly to the amazon listing of the product! Just add to cart and purchase! It is Just that easy! What wont be on the list
Future Releases - There are some big games coming out in 2019, however no one wants an I.O.U as a gift! Only games available now or during the holiday season will be featured on this list!
​
Every product on this list is sold through Amazon. You don't have to worry about shady sites or dealing with the long lines, just click and buy!
CONSOLES
The Xbox is a great console for Teens+. It features a lot of popular games and one of the best online experiences. If you're looking to play online be sure to snag an Xbox live Gold Membership. This membership card also snags you free games every month and the ability to play online!
​ Xbox One S 1TB Console - Starter Bundle

​Xbox One X 1TB Console

HOT GAMES
Here is a list of the hottest games for the Xbox. Please note that the games are rated from E for everyone and M for mature audiences. Please be aware of this as some of the games feature content not suitable for younger players.

Accessories
If you're getting an Xbox this season, you're going to need some accessories. If you're looking for local multiplayer, you're going to need another controller. Most games are online now and that means that yo're going to need a gaming headset (I only recommend a headset for teens and up.)
One thing every parent should know, controllers eat up batteries! Which is why I recommend the Plug and Charge kit. The plug and charge kit comes with a rechargeable battery and a usb cable that plugs into the battery and the xbox, allowing the player to charge their battery and continue playing! Xbox Controllers
All of the xbox controllers here are compatible with the Xbox One, Xbox One S and the Xbox One X.

Accessories ​Playstation 4 Controllers
All of the Playstation controllers here are compatible with the Playstation 4, Playstation 4 Slim and Playstation 4 Pro.
For online play, I recommend a gaming headset and a vertical stand and controller charging station. Please note that the stand is only compatible with the Playstation 4 slim and not the Playstation Pro model.
​CONSOLES
The Nintendo Switch is one of the fastest selling consoles today. It has a very wide selection of games from Nintendo to great third party developers! And the part that everyone loves, it's portable! A console at home and a handheld on the go!
​ Out of the three consoles, the Nintendo Switch is going to require the most in terms of accessories. All of the Nintendo Switch consoles come with 32GB of memory. This memory is used up really fast! Which is why I recommend grabbing an additional SD card to alleviate that issue. ​ Nintendo Switch Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Edition - Switch
​Nintendo Switch: Fortnite - Double Helix Bundle - Switch
​Nintendo Switch - Gray Joy-Con
​Nintendo Switch - Neon Blue & Red Joy-con
Pikachu & Eevee Edition with Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu! + Poke Ball Plus - Nintendo Switch

Accessories ​Joy-con Controllers (Left and Right)
In terms of accessories, I recommend a pro controller, 128 SD memory card and glass protector. These are the most important accessories you will need. If you plan on taking your Switch with you, you may want to consider a carrying case. And finally, depending on how many players there are, I do recommend another set of Joy-Con.
