Despite the fact that today’s video games are ultra-realistic and engaging, for some of us that have grown up through the early days of gaming, there’s a sense of nostalgia and simple entertainment that only certain retro games can satisfy ’til this day. Now that we’ve grown up and have jobs with a disposable income, there’s a market for retro-themed gaming aimed directly at us, which has become a booming market for manufacturers to take advantage of. Many devices are flooding the market, including the NES Classic Edition that’s launching soon.
Among these retro gaming devices, the My Arcade Retro Arcade Machine X is made for those that have fond memories spent at the arcade but don’t want to dish out for a full-sized Pac-Man machine. It’s incredibly compact dimensions at 5.5” x 3” x 3” means that you can play wherever you go as its small enough to fit into the palm of your hand. With a 2.5” full-color display, 4-way joystick, and illuminated A & B buttons, it looks and feels the part too. It doesn’t skimp on content just because it’s small either, as it comes with 300 built-in games that should satisfy any retro gamer.
