Keep Your Kids Safe with Nintendo Switch Parental Controls
The newly released Nintendo Switch gaming console is sure to be the focus of your child’s attention for the next few months. As a parent, it’s always important to keep an eye on what your kid is doing. Thankfully, Nintendo offers a powerful parental controls app to help you do just that, straight from your mobile device.
There are 5 primary settings that you can use to limit your child’s gaming experience on the Nintendo Switch, and keep it safe and responsible. Here’s a brief rundown of each:
What You Can Control
Content Restriction:
This allows profiles to be restricted to specific ESRB ratings and descriptions. This is your way of making sure your child doesn’t play something you think is too mature for them.
Social Media Access:
The Nintendo Switch comes with the built-in ability to export screenshots to your child’s Facebook or Twitter. Disable this setting if you prefer your child to not share their screenshots.
Chat Functionality:
Many multiplayer games allow an option for players to chat with each other online while in a match. As a parent, you may not want your child speaking to strangers of indeterminate age and location though, and this setting allows you to switch that functionality off.
Time Limits:
This function allows for either a “soft” limit that pops up a message notifying your child that they have reached the end of their allotted play time or a “hard” limit that locks off the game entirely. This setting also allows for different days to be set with different time limits.
Purchasing Restrictions:
This setting controls your child’s ability to access the Nintendo Switch’s eShop and spend money within it.
Parental Controls Done Right: Simple, Accessible, Flexible
To engage parental controls, you must download a free app on either Android or IOS that will pair with your child’s Nintendo Switch via a registration code. Simply follow the step-by-step instructions in the settings menu of your Nintendo Switch.
All current generation gaming consoles contain parental controls and settings, but they can be difficult to find and activate. The Nintendo Switch controls are simple to set up, and easy to access and change on the go with a free app on either Android or IOS.

3 Reasons GameTruck is Perfect for Graduation Parties
It’s April and summer is right around the corner. In a few short weeks, millions of students will cross the stage with a diploma in hand. It’s time to start planning your grad’s celebration to reward the years of hard work that it took to get to that stage.
If you’re tired of “traditional” graduation parties and want a unique way to congratulate your loved one, we’re here to help. This month, we’ll take a look at why GameTruck is perfect for your upcoming graduation party.
GameTruck: Not Just for Kids
There is a long-standing stereotype that video games have no place in adult life. Thanks to this stigma, it may seem strange to suggest throwing a game party for a new graduate, ready to face the world. The truth is that adults enjoy games as much as kids and make up a significant portion of the gaming community.
Graduation is a great excuse to let loose with a large group of friends over a game of Call of Duty or Splatoon. Whether you want some cooperative play or a massive free for all, GameTruck video game graduation parties are the way to go.
Fun for Graduates of All Ages
Whether your loved one is graduating from elementary school, middle school, high school, or college, GameTruck is the perfect party idea. We have something for everyone: kids love our games and LaserTag system while parents love our stress-free party planning.

LaserTag: Team Building and Secret Exercise
