My first games-in-a-stick

The Ms.Pacman, space invaders, the sega collection ones, and the new flashback 2 are probably the only ones that even closely resemble the original hardware. Although even they are off in little ways, but they are the most accurate that I've seen.

Weird how? How big/how much? Seems like it would be hard to fukkup tetris.

And that, right there, is the reason i buy so few. Almost all of them looks clunky and poorly desgned. Imagine if they all looked nice and professional. I'd own 'em all. As it is, they offend my sense of taste :D

I picked up the Jakks wireless Ms Pacman, and it is nice. My only big gripe with it is that Galaga seems slow and unresponsive compared to the original. That and the fact that you need 8AAs to run the thing.

 

But I just added an AC adapter jack to the base station, so now I only need 4AAs :)

I read in Retro Gamer that the Space Invaders one was a bad port. Is that true?

Yeah it sucks. Space Invaders is really off from the arcade game, Phoenix is the wrong speed, and QIX is way to slow. It's just not good.

 

On a positive note - check this out if you want to see a really good use for one :)
