Plug and Play Retro TV Games Controller Console, 200 Built In Games, 8-Way Joystick & 2 Buttons, for Adults & Kids - ThumbsUp!

Its good for a bit if fun

It takes up no space and just sits behind the tv ready to play when I like.

It's important to know what this offers. The product description says "200 retro games", which tends to imply that these are old games from the very early days of home computers or even arcades. They're not. They are, however, passable imitations of games written for the early computers or even consoles. In other words, don't imagine you're going to see a long lost favourite, because you won't. You will, however, see games in the style of the old, eight-bit offerings that were so popular in the late '70s.The style bit's important, because with that comes the tinny and somewhat monotonous noise, imaginatively called 'music', and which accompanies every game. The games themselves are simply player vs. sprites. The player is controlled by the tiny but perfectly usable joystick and the sprites do their best to destroy the player. The sprites assume a multitude of guises - sometimes they're aircraft, sometimes cars and sometimes tanks or birds.So - overall, how does it perform? Well, the price says it all: it's less than £10 and it offers 200 games, so that works out at 5p per game. In the late '70s / early '80s people were paying more than that to play a single game, so in that sense it's good value. And almost certainly the reason for the lack of original games is because the original owners would still want royalties, even if they could be traced. So if it fills in an hour or so with nostalgic memories and a bit of fun, it's worth it.There's a slight buzz on the sound but that's hidden by the 'music' and the sound effects. Easy to connect, but they don't supply the 3 x AAA batteries you will need to power the pad itself.

I purchased this for my grandson for his birthday, it was very compact, easy to use, and did what it said on the advert.Well worth the money.

No wire no box just a gearstick in brown paper with no instructions. Absolutely pointless

Great game remind me the old days fantastic

The product is smaller than expected and difficult to operate as a result. But that really does not matter as most of the games are pretty rubbish with poor graphics and naff gameplay. The A/V connection too looks really bad on LCD TV's with wavy lines and bad colour bleed. On the plus side, it looks quite cute and makes a nice ornament.

6 year old grandson loves playing on it , can't play it properly but just loves flipping between games and doing as he pleases. No need to worry as it's so cheap.
