About this deal

The "Pro" series of machines were released in 2023, and are seemingly intended to replace the prior units in production. These consoles feature vertical-resolution screens instead of horizontal; rather than using Famicom/NES ROMs, these units appear to use newly created conversions of the games for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive hardware. This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items.

Usoare si compacte, consolele retro MyArcade sunt usor de folosit, fiind potrivite pentru copii, dar si utile atunci cand doriti sa plecati in calatorii lungi cu masina, sau zboruri.

A larger tabletop arcade machine with 20 built-in games. The games included are mostly genuine arcade versions, alongside a handful of Sega Genesis games. First up, I love bubble bobble. This only thing I love more than bubble bobble is a rainbow islands. And this little unit has both games plus a BB2 or bubble symphony. Tabletop arcade machines with one built in game. Can run on batteries or an AC adapter. The systems are generally based on the Nintendo Entertainment System (Family Computer) versions of each respective game. The machines' artwork is closely modeled after the original arcade cabinets unless otherwise specified. Pac-Man is included twice in the Namco Museum Mini Player, which contains the arcade port, and the Genesis port via Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures. My Arcade is expanding its signature line of classic gamepads to include a wireless controller for the recently launched PlayStation® Classic. The Turbo Gamepad boasts a programmable TURBO feature with LED indication and rechargeable built-in battery for over 15 hours of play per charge.This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. The Rainbow Islands port is also the NES version (so no "somewhere over the rainbow" music). You can either play it using a plug in mini USB or 4 batteries. It doesn't hold a charge like a phone or other game systems, so that was a minor disappointment. Overall, if you want a decent version of original Rainbow Islands that's portable, this is your best bet. Curiously, the Ms. Pac-Man systems were briefly pulled from production in late 2022; though due to the following 2023 releases, the loopholes presumably still apply to the products. The controls do lag a bit on all the games. There are no triple rainbows or reverse scrolling on Rainbow Islands. Some of the level gravity in bubble bobble is awkward.

Given I have both units, I find it hard to choose which is best. But as this has 3 games and is more portable then this unit is great for on the go. My Arcade expands its partnership with BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Inc. to introduce one of gaming’s first and most iconic female protagonists, Ms.PAC-MAN, to My Arcade’s line-up of accessories. INCLUDES 3 GAMES AND LANYARD - Comes pre-installed with BANDAI NAMCO classics DIG DUG, DIG DUG II, and THE TOWER OF DRUAGA

Overall, I love this handheld. I played Bubble Bobble (NES) endlessly as a kid, even 2 player by myself so I could reach the try ending. This handheld includes a port of the NES version, along with BB2 and Rainbow Islands. That's a lot for the price! I agree with another reviewer that it would be nice to have the arcade version, but this is still great as is. I have BB on Game Gear which is closer to the arcade, and it does look nicer visually and has a lot more complexity that makes the game play more fun. Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. While not officially confirmed, all of My Arcade's Ms. Pac-Man handhelds were likely released through loopholes with the 2006 General Computer Corporation agreement, which would indicate no royalties had to be paid to GCC for their release.

Pac-Man 40th Anniversary - Uses the "Sega Genesis clone hardware" port running in horizontal resolution. Compared to the non-40th model, it is gold instead of yellow, and the side artwork is a lenticular print.Retro gamers looking to play from the comfort of their couches can connect the Retro Champ to their TVs via the console’s HDMI output and pair with My Arcade wireless controllers (sold separately).
