Geeky gifts from Getting Personal

Posted Filed under

Any self-respecting gamer dad would love the chance to get their hands on a retro gaming fix without a visit to the nearest arcade; Getting Personal‘s Arcadie for iPhone is bound to tick all the right boxes. This nifty, compact gift turns your iPhone or iPod Touch into a mini game cabinet. There’s no hassle of batteries or configuration just download the Arcadie app and insert your Apple tech. Within a couple of easy steps your dad will have 1980s arcade fun at his fingertips.

If your dad is less of a gamer and more of a Doctor Who fan then Getting Personal has the perfect present choice. The Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver Remote Control is an authentic replica that allows your dad the chance to be a Time Lord. While he won’t be unlocking the secrets of alien life forms, he will be able to control several of his favourite home devices.

This ingenious universal remote will let him connect his iPod, Blu-ray player, TV and much more so that it’s all in one remote instead of several. And when your dad isn’t exploring the wonders of TV, space and time, he can display his sonic screwdriver in the windowed case/stand that comes with it.
