Cute little Retro system
The media could not be loaded. Unfortunately, this is currently unavailable which means I can't evaluate it by price and that can drastically change my opinion on this. If and when this comes back, if this is at a reasonable price (Sub £25, preferably £20) then I'd say it's a fantastic little budget item, as these little systems usually are. Anything over that then my opinion changes.What you get is a sweet little system in a nice vivid red with an included controller and a hard carry case (as well as the various cables needed). I think it's a great looking system.It turns on instantly and gives you a choice between Chinese or English language. You have to pick each time you press the reset button (a little annoying but it's okay)You get around 400 games. The quality of these games are questionable. Some are classics that we all know and love, some are less known, some even feel like homebrew / self made, using assets from one game and putting them in another. Most work, some do not (For example, I went up some stairs in one game but I couldn't get back down them, all the buttons did the same thing, punch (I'm a certain Robot Cop that everyone knows) yet I have my side arm in the menu but can't pick it, or jump.For the games that do work, you're looking at mainly NES/MS era.The buttons are very mushy. I do not like the feel of them at all, same for the D-pad, however, at least on my version (and I can't say if there's consistency between them) they were surprisingly VERY responsive, and using the directional angles on the D-pad were fantastic, I have never actually played Contra being able to diagonally shoot so perfectly easy. Still, the buttons feel horrible but they work great.The screen isn't that good, it's backlit but the light is on the side which gives a bit of screen bleeding, there's also a lot of screen tearing for a lot of the games (not all). The colours aren't that vivid but that could also do with just the era of the games. It isn't the worst screen I've seen though.The controller ONLY works for the second player. You can't pick or choose any games with it and the only way to use it is to pick a 2 player game and take control of the second player. As you can see by the video. It's a nice addition if you want to play with someone (might be good for keeping a couple kids quiet(ish) in the back of the car). The controller is comfortable to hold but again, the buttons are mushy and feel horrible.The sound is mono, you have a speaker in the front which is good but it's not the best quality.With that said, there's an awful lot of flaws but I love it for some reason. If it comes back as a reasonable price, then I'd say as a budget item that you can take with you on holidays or whatever, without any worry with what happens to it, it's a great little time waster. It should keep the kids happy for a couple of hours and for adults you get to play a few of the old favourites from a bygone era. These days you can get a million different devices but if you want anything good you need to pay a lot of money for it and this is a cheap (hopefully) little gadget that should scratch that retro itch in a casual manner.If you're aware it's got a lot of problems and you're not getting the best screen, sound, controls but a lot of games where some work, some don't, some are in Chinese, others Japanese but happy just because of a few known titles that actually work, look and play great, then I can recommend it!

Cute little handheld gameboy that can be connected to a TV Screen and has multiplayer mode
The media could not be loaded. This is a very cute little gameboy kind of console.It can be connected to a big screen and can be used in multiplayer mode with an extra controller.My kids love it and can play for hours with it.I love the fact that it is rechargeable and that it comes preloaded with so many different games.It is easy to use and much more lightweight than an original game boy.Battery life is ok and the little console is definitely value for money.We are very happy with this gadget and gladly recommend it to you.
