Ok so after 1 year this has finally arrived. Initial thoughts. Screen is very small. I thought it was 2x4 inch but it’s 2.4 inch.
Controls not great - had some difficulty with my first try at Adventure but sure will get more used to it. Asteroids even harder but it was actually good for Missile Command.
Has some good games in the 50 and great menu system. Easy to return to menu but depressing Start and Select together.
Main down side is lack of a few BIG games and no function for mem cars to add any. This includes no Space Invaders, Pac Man, Vanguard or even ET for fun’s sake but I guess due to licensing issues :-(
For the price it’s not a bad piece of nostalgia which looks good but feels light.
FYI it has volume, AV out and speaker ports.
