Portable 20000 in 1 Metal Box 3D Arcade Game Console, 22 inch Screen Retro Electronic Game Console, with Search/Hide/Save/Load/Pause Functions

TLDR: This is a must buy for an instant home arcade. No reservations at all. So I ordered this based on positive reviews so I figured that I needed to leave one as well so that people would know what they're getting. The build quality on this device is absolutely amazing, Full metal all the way around, an enormous 22-in screen, two sets of arcade sticks that feel just right, and every possible game I could want from 82 to 2004. You want ladybug? It's on there. I haven't been able to look through all of the games yet but I haven't had something I was looking for that I haven't been able to find yet. The games catalog covers every system from MAME up to PS1/DC/N64. When the unit is closed it is about briefcase sized, and is quite hefty, because of the build quality. When opened, and sitting on a counter, The user experience is very much like an actual arcade machine. This sticks feel right the buttons feel right The screen is the right size, and since the machine is heavy, the control is very solid. Speaking of the controllers, the unit also comes with a pair of PlayStation style controllers that plug into a USB port on the side allowing for playing games require that kind of controller or for having four player control for some games. The primary control sticks unscrew from the deck and screw into two holes near the handle of the briefcase when the unit is closed. It's really quite ingenious. The screen is hinged with six total hinges three on each side, this may be overkill but I like overkill, I would rather it be over designed than to have that screen hinge fail. Speaking of the screen, it's crisp it's 22 in diagonal and the unit has an HDMI input for it so that you could plug a fire stick into it or another PC and use the monitor as a secondary monitor, there is also a PC port plug that goes out to a PC to use the control sticks as USB control sticks for a PC, so one could plug in their computer into this and be able to use this as the display and the controls for that computer. I got this for about $250, and that's an amazing price, but I feel like this is a steel even at the regular price of about $350. Put it in your cart and thank me later.

I am not sure how long this review should be but I have owned mine now for about 2 months. Overall it has been great but there are some caveats worth mentioning. First, the games are hard to search through, they are not in alphabetical order, many are named weird names (Like Dig-Dug is named "Annoying") thousands of games that are in Chinese or Japanese and also many, many multiples of all the same games. To get the full use of the games you want you will need to invest the time to dig through the awful file structure to find the games you want. It can be a bit daunting. But, worth the time IMO. The hardware is top notch and I suspect this is going to last me a very long time, longer than the Arcade1Up I purchased and died within the first year. The joysticks feel and work great though if you are so minded you can upgrade them to real Sanwa joysticks. So far I have not seen the need to do that. Even the onboard speakers sound exceptionally good. I am more of a shooter type game player and also like the classic arcade games so the thousands of Street Fighter games don't really appeal to me. Though I like Street Fighter just fine, it's not my first go to. And there are thousands and thousands of Street Fighter type games on this. Also, I could never get the Wifi to work to connect to the online Pandora's Box Game Store, however you can attach a USB Ethernet adapter and hardwire that into your router and that worked for me to access the online Game Store. There are thousands of more games out there to download. Here are the list of games I have found after exhaustive searches. Joust, Defender, Defender II, Donkey Kong ( and Jr. and 3), Galaga (and 90 and 3) Ms. Pac-Man (a few with speed-up) Pac-Man, Super Pac-Man, Jr Pac-Man, Pac-Man HD, Dig-Dug, Centipede, Millipede, Break-Out, Arkanoid (and Doh It Again), Popeye, Jungle Hunt (also know as Jungle King), Asteroids, Out Run, Pole Position. 1943, 1944 (and many variants thereof) R-Type (and II and III), Robotron, Gyruss, Pheonix, Galaxian, Space Invaders (and many variants) The Simpsons (2 and 4 player available), TMNT, Burger Time, Super Burger Time, and many Playstation games like Alien Havoc. Just to name a few. I also have had luck getting USB controllers working on this with adapters such as the Atarai Trackball, The USB CX-40 controller, 8Bitdo Arcade Fight Stick (which I modded as a 4-way for Pac-Man and such) and the iCode Arcade Spinner (use Profile #3). Overall I think it is a good investment for the money but be prepared to sift through the unfriendly menus and not very good searching abilities.

I bought this for my wife and I as we are arcade gamer and we are super happy about this "suitcase." So, despite the game categorize and the inaccessible Emulator setting, I have no complaint about the console. The case is heavy duty almost feels like military grade equipment (>15lbs, which is perfect me, I don't like a flimsy suitcase), the mainboard is well covered in a plastic box unlike the Pandora arcade that have everything exposed when you unscrew the top layer. All button is mechanical, and the knob's body is made of metal which can be compare to most of the >$500 arcade box and D&B or RoundOne. The screen is 1080p 60hz and has a decent dynamic range (better than Walmart's price checker screen). However, since the chip is a from China so its game is pretty laggy under a highload of details on the screen. For $300 in an exchange for gas and credit at D&B, this is a perfect deal for me!

Overall quality was good. The issue is it's locked with a password to be able to add games or make changes. Also it's bigger and heavier than expected so it's being returned based mainly on not being able to add the games I was expecting to be on there to begin with.

Its amazing how fun this is for portable play. I love playing with family i dont think I live without it. There are so many games you can play on it.

First the good: this is a well built, solid, robust, portable gaming system. If you buy it and find games preloaded that you like, its a solid purchase. However.... The Bad: This is an emulation system with many emulators and the stated feature of being able to add games. This is not true. While you can load games into the SD card folders, there is NO way nor settings to get the system to read said game files and play them. Therefore you are stuck with what it comes with. This is a real shame as if it simply had a setting to "rescan rom files" it would be an amazing retro emulator option.

I’ve had this for a month and I love it. It’s worth every penny. My friends and I enjoy that there are some classic titles mixed in with some weird obscure gems. I wish it was easier to search for specific games and it would be awesome to be able to “like” or “favorite” games for easy access. It only keeps about 20 games in the “recent” folder. Also, the instruction manual is pretty useless. The tutorial videos created by the manufacturer/seller are very helpful. None of these things are enough to knock it down from five stars. The game store, where you can download additional games for free is an excellent feature. Addressing other reviews, it’s not that heavy. It has heft, but that means quality. The 22”HD screens is awesome. I just tried plugging a streaming device into it and the quality is great, although I can’t adjust the volume in this mode. Overall, I highly endorse this product. The fact that it is portable is what ultimately sold me. If you’ve been looking at home arcade machines, I would very much recommend this unit.

Pros: The 22-inch IPS screen is genuinely nice — bright, sharp, and easy to view from different angles. The unit powers on quickly and is very simple to start using. The metal box feels solid and well-built, not cheap or flimsy. Controls feel decent, and overall the machine has a premium, arcade-style presence. Good flexibility with video input/output and Wi-Fi support. Cons (Major Issue): The advertised “20,000+ games” is extremely misleading. The game list is filled with 20–30 duplicate entries of the same games, often just minor variations or repeated ROMs. Examples include dozens of versions of King of Fighters and Street Fighter II, making it very difficult to find genuinely different games. Navigating the menus is frustrating, especially for kids — they quickly became annoyed scrolling past endless duplicates trying to find something new. This duplication seriously detracts from playability and usability, and feels like inflated marketing rather than real value. Overall: The hardware itself is good — solid construction, nice screen, easy setup — but the game library is poorly organized and padded with massive duplication, which makes the experience frustrating. If the game list were cleaner and more honestly curated, this could be a great product. As it stands, the “20,000 games” claim sets unrealistic expectations and hurts what could otherwise be an enjoyable arcade console. Recommendation: Buy it for the screen and build quality, but don’t buy it expecting a clean or thoughtfully organized game library. The advertised game count is highly inflated and misleading.

Lasciate perdere. Istruzioni ingannevoli (dicono che si possono aggiungere giochi ma non è possibile), giochi che vanno lenti e sono praticamente ingiocabili. Inoltre il venditore aveva detto che avrebbe pagato le spese per la rispedizione ma così non è stato (e considerato il peso dell’articolo, sono state spese onerose!). Statene lontani!

After a few shipping hiccups, this product takes the cake. I wanted to get that feeling of the early 1990’s Arcade, and I’m not disappointed. Clicky buttons, responsive sticks, and a bright LED screen. Only downside is when you have a preload list of 23000+ games it’s tough to find exactly what game I’m looking for. After some experimenting and digging I have the beginning of a phenomenal favorites list, and I can’t stop playing. The best part is it’s portable, so at work arcade at break! 12/10! Would absolutely buy again.

Please avoid! Games are not in english, language is also not in english. No British games on console. Tried very hard to get a refund but the seller kept asking for more information which was taking weeks. Also the seller has increased the price of £80. Finally was refunded via the bank. Would avoid.

Es estupendo. Lo primero que impacta es el tamaño de la pantalla. Se instala muy facil, solo hay que enroscar las palancas. Tiene un montón de juegos, de momento no echo ninguno en falta, espero que siga así a medida que se va jugando. La calidad de la pantalla es muy buena y se ven los juegos perfectos, a pesar del tamaño de la misma no se ven pixelados. Muy recomendable.

La construction de cette borne portable est de qualité et robuste. Facile à transporter et possibilité de visser les sticks de part et d'autre de la poignée. L'écran est grand et très bon avec options de réglages et même la possibilité d'y brancher un appareil externe (PC, console, etc) en HDMI. Le son est plutôt de qualité et puissant avec possibilité de brancher un casque audio. Au niveau des jeux leur nombre est conséquent (plus de 28000 fichiers!) mais il y a hélas beaucoup de fois les mêmes jeux et aussi beaucoup de fichiers qui, soit ne fonctionnent pas, soit fonctionnent avec des bugs. Il faut donc être patient et trouver petit à petit les fichiers "utilisables". Il est heureusement possible dans les paramètres de créer une liste de favoris ou d'effacer les fichiers inutiles, cela est toutefois fastidieux car il faut parcourir la liste complète des 28000 jeux pour activer ces options, on ne sait pas le faire directement à partir du jeu lui-même. L'interface permet d'effectuer une recherche par nom ou par catégories préétablies et garde aussi une liste des derniers jeux joués. La console permet d'adapter différents paramètres comme la difficulté (pour les jeux compatibles) ou les filtres d'amélioration de l'image. Je vous conseille de désactiver les filtres car certains jeux font déjà l'objet d'un lissage, et pour les autres jeux l'option "sans filtre" permet d'apprécier les détails du jeux original. Pour ce qui est des jeux disponibles, on compte environ 1600 jeux arcade (ceux qui m'intéresse le plus!), le reste des +de 26000 jeux est issus des consoles 8 et 16 bits (portables ou de salon) et même quelques jeux 3D des générations suivantes. Il s'agit toutefois généralement des versions en chinois ou parfois en anglais (sauf quelques rares exceptions de jeux multilingues ou en français). A noter qu'il est possible lors d'une pause du jeu d'enregistrer la partie pour la reprendre plus tard, ce qui fonctionne généralement bien mais pas toujours... La console est également fournie avec 2 pads supplémentaires ce qui permet notamment de pouvoir jouer jusqu'à 4 joueurs simultanés pour les jeux compatibles. Je résumerais les points forts/faibles comme suit : + bon rapport qualité/prix + qualité de l'écran avec possibilité branchement externe + options de paramétrage + choix de jeux et de consoles + qualité et robustesse des composants - Multiplications des fichiers et nombreux fichiers défectueux - Paramètres de tri fastidieux - Manque quelques gros classiques en version arcade (ils sont uniquement dispo en versions 8 ou 16 bit) - Nombreux jeux consoles injouables sans maîtriser le chinois - Certains jeux verticaux qui sont proposés en mode horizontal ! En conclusion, ce n'est pas encore la console parfaite mais sa qualité et sa portabilité la rende quand même suffisamment attractive pour bénéficier d'une expérience arcade et rétro tout-en-un.
