My ArcadeSpace Invaders Pocket Player Pro: Officially Licensed, Retro Gaming Consoles, Fun Game for The Family, 2.75" Color Display

Wow, I am glad I read reviews and I am impressed with the vivid brightness of the screen. At this price point I was not sure what to expect but I read in a review that the brightness is nice and they’re correct! Great quality, well packaged and easy to use. Super cute and portable.

As a fan of the arcade classic, Galaga, and to a lesser extent, Galaxian, this portable handheld version of the game is very faithful and easy to play. It was a little confusing at first in getting the game to start as once you have which game you want to play selected, you have to then press the "credit" button on the top to progress to the one or two player selection option. But from there it's the same classic arcade games most folks know and love.The game screen is fairly large too and the shape of the device is very useful for keeping a good grip on it. Changing the batteries though may be a bit difficult as you have to undo two phillips head screws on the back panels to remove them and replace the two AA batteries in both compartments. There's a plug for a recharge cable but that, plus the batteries, are not included.Overall, a quality little video game, perfect for travel or playing while relaxing on a given day.

I bought this for my 7 year old. He is obsessed with Pacman right now & loves this portable game. He takes it everywhere & everyone loves it. Its fun & easy, simple like the regular game. it works great, I haven't had to change the batteries. We will be ordering another game soon from them :)

I have Galaga and Tetris. Galaga is great. I wish the body of the game were blue or some other color other than green but that’s nitpicking. Tetris is not quite as good as Galaga. It’s still a fun game and I recommend it, but I have an issue with the main button being a scroll wheel other than individual directional ones. It’s too easy to derail the pieces as they fall because the big button is so sensitive. Also, make sure you have fresh batteries to play with otherwise the game will shut off randomly. But other than that it’s a great brand. I intend on purchasing other titles in the future.

The My Arcade Street Fighter II Pocket Player Pro is a nostalgic little gem that makes a fantastic gift for anyone who grew up in the arcade era. I bought it for my dad for Christmas, and the look on his face when he powered it on was priceless—he was instantly transported back to his youth. The officially licensed Capcom branding ensures that the gameplay feels authentic, and the handheld itself is compact and easy to hold. With two games included and a bright 2.75” color screen, it delivers a solid retro gaming experience that captures the spirit of the arcade.In terms of performance, the device works exactly as intended. The controls are responsive, the screen is sharp enough for its size, and the sound is surprisingly decent for such a small console. It’s straightforward to use once the batteries are installed, and from that point on, it’s pure fun. One important thing to note, though, is that the package doesn’t include batteries, and you’ll need a small screwdriver to open the compartment. While this could be slightly inconvenient, it’s a minor hurdle compared to the joy of playing.What really makes this handheld shine is the sense of nostalgia it provides. It’s not just a game console—it’s a time machine that brings back the thrill of arcade battles and the energy of the Street Fighter II era. Whether you’re buying it for yourself or as a gift, it delivers joy well beyond its size. For its authentic gameplay, ease of use, and sheer fun factor, the My Arcade Street Fighter II Pocket Player Pro easily earns a 5/5!

Where to start ... First of all this is not an arcade port, silly of me to expect that I guess. No no no, this has to be the Sega Genesis version. The Genesis' biggest weakness was its sound processor. The sounds have that distinct static/distortion/crackley sound. You get these lovely sounds through a single mono speaker that's loud enough.The animation is not as smooth and the colors not as bright as the arcade. 100 percent a Genesis port.The screen, oh the screen is just terrible. Even looking at it straight on the viewing angle is messed up. Tilting your head 2 degrees and a portion of the screen goes black. I didn't even know they made screens this bad still.The d pad is too poorly designed to be reliable to do anything. Ryu's fireballs and dragon punches cannot be executed reliably. Want to press down and back to avoid being tripped? You wish. The d pad pretty much pushes all the way flat, so all the buttons up, down, left and right all press at the same time, it needs to rock on a center stud in the middle of the d pad.The XYZ ABC buttons work, would like them with half the travel that they do have.Would I recommend this product? Sadly no. I could forgive all the short comings of this product if I could play it and actually have fun. The d pad is what keeps this device from being playable. If you cannot reliably perform special moves then there is no point to playing at all.Pros: It looks cool and has a super sweet package it came in.
