Nice find, but the reviews don't look great. Still a hot deal though!
I recently found the PiCade... Similar sort of deal, but a lot more expensive. Still, has a bigger screen, and you can put a Pi in it and run a shed load of emus. Hoping to get one for Christmas!
Nice! I like that. Way out of my price range mind, but still pretty cool.
you can also get the iCade for iPhones as well ..

I've seen a video on this. for the price this is a great Christmas present for gaming fans. it's cheap and cheerful. good funny gimmick and yes it doesn't have Street fighter, star wars arcade. .... but who cares. buying 3. one for my Dad, one for my brother and one for me. great deal and obvious heat.
This would make a useful 'kit' if it you could use it with a raspberry pi, however even then I would be dubious about the quality of the joystick and buttons.

To quote (review from Amazon)
"Thus is rubbish its yet to be sent back as in hospital at the moment&this was to play about with after my opporation but it made my exsperiance worse."
Just let that sink in. It made the experience of having surgery worse.

What a waste of money, some sheep will click hot for the retro thoughts.
Why not simply get an emulator on your smartphone? Same thing, bigger screen

2.5" screen, so a quarter of the size of a typical smartphone screen. Yup, this thing is tiny!
I just watched the video that is available on the web page. They were not joking with the word "micro" its tiny. The joystick is not in your palm but at your finger tips lol.

can't wait to play 'Stainless Glass', I just hope there's a game called 'Wash At 90 Degrees'.

Voted hot even though I know at least 239 of the games are going to be absolute rubbish. :smile:

It could be a good project for a Pi if you could use the screen possibly.

nice looking gadget, but the games are all pretty dire - the sort you'll find on those plug and play consoles you get from the local market.

It looks like whoever got to name the games didn't turn up for work that day
