The Nex Playground is a console full of kid-friendly games that operate solely with motion controls. It’s a great way to exhaust your little ones when going outside isn’t an option, and it’s $60 off for Prime Day. I’ve had a chance to try several of the games on the Play Pass, and it’s even fun for adults. If the price seems high, think of the Nex Playground sort of like the crank-equipped Playdate. You’re paying for the hardware, yes, but you’re also paying to get access to a library of bespoke (and surprisingly polished) games made exclusively for the platform.
