At Games Legends Flashback Boom!

The price finally came down on this to where it was worth the price and also some units were sold by sellers who were selling them fulfilled by Amazon by the time you read this message that may not be the case.For the amount I paid for this unit I could have played these games a "whomping" 75 times at 1 quarter per play, so this is like eating infinite pizza, you can play forever. We have become so spoiled with the Internet and technology.My nephew got one for his birthday last summer from one of his aunts who just went out and grabbed the first thing on sale that she saw that looked cool, and I had the green eyes of jealously, it is rare that I feel jealous of 11 year old but I got the feeling he was not going to appreciate what he had, he actually did, we had fun playing Dig Dug together, when the price came down on Amazon I decided to get one for my vintage video game collection.The unit is durable enough, the fun factor is great for those that grew up playing these games. A feature that I have never ever seen before used is a rewind feature allowing you to rewind the game when you die, this is not available on all the games but is cool for the games it does work with. Most of the these are the arcade version, arcade versions are known for being more challenging, this was because those old arcades made tons of money off us addicted kids during the 80s and early 90s :)It is nice to be able to play some of these games again, and when you play them you can pop in extra quarters (digitally not real ones) for FREE, this allows you to see parts of the games that you probably never saw as a kid. So with the rewind feature and the free quarters you should be able to continue playing and see many parts of the games you could not see before!Here is a list of the games:1. 1942 2. Act-Fancer Cybernetick Hyper Weapon 3. Astro Fantasia 4. Bad Dudes vs. Dragon-ninja 5. Break Thru 6. BurgerTime 7. Burnin’ Rubber 8. Champions World Class Soccer 9. Cluster Buster 10. Commando 11. Crude Buster 12. Darwin 4078 13. Dig Dug 14. Disco No.1 15. Edward Randy, The Cliffhanger 16. Express Raider 17. Fighting Ice Hockey 18. Forgotten Worlds 19. Galaga 20. Ghouls ‘n Ghosts 21. Heavy Barrel 22. Joe & Mac: Caveman Ninja 23. Joe & Mac Returns 24. Judge Dredd 25. Lock ‘n Chase 26. Mappy 27. Mega Man 28. Mega Man 2 29. Meikyu Hunter G 30. Phelios 31. Pirate Ship Higemaru 32. Pro Tennis 33. Pro Bowling 34. Rally-X 35. Rootin’ Tootin’ 36. Scrum Try 37. Sly Spy (Secret Agent) 38. Side Pocket 39. Shoot Out 40. Side Arms Hyper Dyne 41. Sky Kid 42. Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers 43. Strider 44. Super BurgerTime 45. Super Doubles Tennis 46. Super Pool III 47. Super Real Darwin 48. Terranean 49. Tetris 50. Tournament Pro GolfNow this will never compare to such things as the NES classic, the SNES classic or the MINI Genesis etc. but then again what does compare. If you are wanting something fun to do with your kids, nephews, or others and share in the richness of our video game history, this is the right choice for you, make sure get it as a price that works for you.

I was really excited to get this as a gift for my 12yr old ; his father and I were avid gamers in our childhood and loved so many of the games available on this console. Huge disappointment when we set him up to play that the game doesn't work. It runs through the game on its own . The first player controller works enough to select games but once selected it's all CPU . The game plays itself and we have no ability to jump in. There's no pressing start there's no playing on our end and it's this way for all the games. We haven't been able to use it at all ; this was a Christmas gift. So disappointing

This was a Christmas gift for my husband and he loves it. It works great. My only issue was shipped in the product box and it had mailing labels all over it which does not make a nice gift.

This system is fantastic. I bought it to side load ROMs for Sega Genesis. The included controllers are light, but pretty responsive. The buttons on the top were very satisfying with tactile feedback. I love the ease of entering the screen from the controller. With many retro systems that I bought in the past allowing for ROMs, I had trouble finding the correct SD card. I am thrilled about the 2gb as card included. I easily installed the required update. Then, I had way more than enough room to install rom versions of my entire Sega Genesis library. The gameplay on this system beats my $800 gaming computer that was built for high graphics games, not retro like the legends flashback is. This beats the Nintendo classic offerings for ease of rom installs as well. Way underpriced, but I won’t complain about that!

Worked, the meathod to play the games as in coins was lame, why? Must goto box to press button to add coins, on 2 player games must use only 1 remote, only 2 games uses 2 remotes, cables for power very short.Pass on this one

Love playing this games as a kid.

This is cheap junk. Missing HDMI cable but I used one of my own. Gameplay is lagging due to crappy controllers and you have to go back to console for main menu to change games. Also complex way to start and switch gameplay. As far as the games, the ROMs work, but that's it.

The media could not be loaded. I looked like it would be so much fun! But unfortunately the left and right arrow keys did not function. So glad I tested it out before gifting to my son. :/
