Mini Arcade Machine, 156 Built-In 16-Bit Games, 2.8” Full Colour Screen, 8-Way Joystick, Handheld Retro Games Console – Gaming by Golden Security!

What a great, cheap little retro novelty. Basically a Sega megadrive in a fun size arcade machine.Bought one for a friend's birthday gift, with great success. He loved it.& I liked it so much too, I then bought myself one for the man cave.Takes me back to being 14 again.Recommend nostalgic fun.

This is a great little unit for retro arcade games. It is basically Sega Megadrive games and possibly some hack roms. It is overall better than other arcade units that offer over 300 games of NES stuff which is unplayable.The majority of games are playable and enjoyable and have the correct button mapping for Megadrive games.The only downsides are the menu music with some sort of rendition of "Don't cry for me Argentina" and no save states, so any progress made in a game is lost when you exit the game.But, this isn't much of a problem, would be nice to have though. Also the games are not listed in any coherent order so scrolling through the list for the game you want could take some time.If the menu music could be changed or removed altogether and saves possible this would get 6 out of 5 stars from me.I have not tried the TV out but wouldn't expect any decent image to appear on a 30 plus inch TV, it would be all stretched out and pixelated or blurry. I have a real Megadrive to play on the big screen.Overall this unit will sit proudly with my small collection of mini arcades.

It’s very retro and looks the part however I found it a little fiddly to use. The screen is small and the sound isn’t great and not that loud. It’s very cheap brittle plastic so I wouldn't want to drop it. Numerous games to choose from.

My nephew loves it

Lovely addition to my collection. Nice sized, comes with rechargeable battery and buttons/ stick feels great. A lot of games in Japanese, not English… Hence dropping 2* would be 5* if games were in English.

Very disappointing. Bought as a Christmas gift for a child who was very happy at first, only for the joystick thing to stop responding about thirty minutes into use on Christmas morning. The screen also became pixelated and unreadable. Dreadful performance for the price paid.

Bought this out of curiosity as heard it had a couple of classic games from my youth such as Golden Axe and Sensible Soccer. What an amazing little machine! Screen is impressive, Graphics just as I remember but in miniture. This is so compact too (stands just slightly higher than a drinks can) so it's small and light156 classic games included so lots to choose from, also impressed that you can either use three AA batteries or use the lithium rechargeable battery that comes with and this also inserts in the same battery compartment but vertically in front of where the AA's would go. It's also plug and play so can connect to a TV although I've not yet tried this. All in all a great little novilty and a great present for anyone to relive a bit of nostalgia!

Have bought this as a Christmas present so hasn't been truly trialed yet, but I have switched in on just to make sure it works and YES it works! Such a great stocking filler for gamers, quite a few old favourites. Hoping the joystick lasts because it does seem a bit fragile, that's the only concern. Graphics are good for the price
