My Arcade Tetris Pocket Player Pro: Strategic Puzzle Games, Retro Portable Game Console, Tetris Game for Kids and Adults 2.75" Full Color Display

Son has used this for 6 months now almost daily. Once the sound is turned down, game has to be restarted to adjust volume again. One of the buttons just recently became stuck and we can't get it unstuck. Size is perfect for car rides which is what its used for. Its been a very loved gift and would buy again.

The screen is tiny but construction feels like good quality. This plug & play throwback is legit! Brings me back to sitting on the living room floor in front of the TV playing Super Street fighter 2 on Super Nintendo. It's perfect.

I bought the Atari version of this handheld as I grew up playing an Atari 2600 and wanted a little nostalgia of those days. First off, the unit is very attractive looking and is nicely made. The controls all work fine and there is a good variety of fun games installed. I haven't tried every game yet but the ones I have played are really fun to play. Certain games are a little challenging to play though since they may not have the appropriate controls for the game. For example, Crystal Castles is a game that used a track ball in the arcades. Using the d pad for this game makes it really hard to play. That is one my big gripe about this handheld. The lack of a trackball for games like Crystal Castle and Centipede and the lack of a paddle like controller for games like Breakout and Warlord. Playing Centipede and Missile Command is certainly doable with the d pad, but I had a really hard time controlling the paddle in Breakout with the d pad. I can understand the difficulty of putting a trackball on such a small unit, but I think they could have put some kind of small knob for a paddle control for games that used it, such as breakout. My only other minor gripe is the fact that it was not made to be rechargeable. You have to directly power it with a USB cable or use 4 AA batteries. All in all, it is a really nice unit that has a good variety of games and is really fun to play the memorable games installed on it.

An easy handheld game for adults and small children. This game builds the fine tuning of small motor skills, also helps concentration skills .

Ms Pac-man was always one of my favorite arcade games and this handheld doesn’t disappoint. Easy controls with minimal navigation, just turn on and add credits (button) and select one or two player and that’s it. Game goes. Only controls are the left directional pad, which uses MyArcade’s common pad and is perfect for this application. I’ve had mine for about 8 months and have only used it intermittently since, but overall have nearly a dozen hours going on the same batteries I first put in. I do like that it can be powered by a plugged in usb-c charging cable if you don’t want to waste the batteries.My only complaint is the volume on this specific game from MyArcade. Even on max (volume setting between 0-4), you can barely hear the game. I use (wired) headphones and on max that allows me to actually hear the gameplay. *This doesn’t allow for bluetooth connectivity fyi. Lastly, you will need to acquire a very small phillips screwdriver in order to unscrew and screw the security screws for the battery cover plates. As someone who owns a set of small various screwdrivers, I was ok but can understand the frustration having getting this and getting home only to find I need an unusually small screwdriver to operate this and not having one. Option B) USB-C i I suppose.Overall quality is on par for a $40 (inexpensive) handheld toy. Made for common use but not built for abuse. It’s tough enough and will probably last many years under normal use. Currently, I have this and the Tetris, Galaga, & Street Fighter players. Working on the collection. Definitely a good value for the money. Perfect for any game enthusiast of vintage games, young and old, or anyone who is into collecting gaming and toys in general.

Where to start ... First of all this is not an arcade port, silly of me to expect that I guess. No no no, this has to be the Sega Genesis version. The Genesis' biggest weakness was its sound processor. The sounds have that distinct static/distortion/crackley sound. You get these lovely sounds through a single mono speaker that's loud enough.The animation is not as smooth and the colors not as bright as the arcade. 100 percent a Genesis port.The screen, oh the screen is just terrible. Even looking at it straight on the viewing angle is messed up. Tilting your head 2 degrees and a portion of the screen goes black. I didn't even know they made screens this bad still.The d pad is too poorly designed to be reliable to do anything. Ryu's fireballs and dragon punches cannot be executed reliably. Want to press down and back to avoid being tripped? You wish. The d pad pretty much pushes all the way flat, so all the buttons up, down, left and right all press at the same time, it needs to rock on a center stud in the middle of the d pad.The XYZ ABC buttons work, would like them with half the travel that they do have.Would I recommend this product? Sadly no. I could forgive all the short comings of this product if I could play it and actually have fun. The d pad is what keeps this device from being playable. If you cannot reliably perform special moves then there is no point to playing at all.Pros: It looks cool and has a super sweet package it came in.

Fantastic! Brings me back to my youth. Functions as the original. Sounds are great! 👍🏻
