My Arcade Atari Game Station Pro: Retro Video Game Console with 200+ Games, Wireless Joysticks, RGB LED Lights, Atari 2600/5200/7800 and More

The first one I got was used, so I didn't even bother trying it. I don't blame this on Amazon, but rather the particular seller. I sent it back and ordered another one, which was new. This is a great system. It was easy to set up and get to playing. The selection of games on it is very good, though it is missing some of my favorites. However, the great thing about this system is that you can also play games it doesn't come with using a micro SD card. The console... It's well built and looks quite nice. The placement of the two USB-C ports on the front for wired controller connection is great, especially in comparison to other Atari retro consoles, and even the original 2600. The controller ports being in the back of those was always a bit unwieldy, while being in the front is just natural. The top is simple, with a Power and Home button, the latter of which is also on each controller. The ring lights are also nice looking, and they're adjustable, from the default, alternating rainbow colors to solid white and solid orange. You adjust the lights with the Menu button on the controllers. The USB-C power port and full size HDMI ports are on the back, and well placed. And the best part... the micro SD card slot, which is on the left side. The console has a bit of weight, which adds to it feeling more solid, though some of that weight comes from a metal plate on the inside that they added to make it feel heavier. Still, its heft is nice. The controllers... For most games they're very good. The joystick part feels quite different from a traditional CX-40 Atari joystick, both in its style and the way it feels, but it's quite nice. Not cheap feeling. They have a light ring around the bottom of the joystick, corresponding with the lights around the Power and Home buttons on the console. They also have a small rotatable knob used for Paddle games, and it's actually quite nice. It turns very smoothly, with just a little resistance. Now I say the controllers are very good for "most" games, as some games require the use of more than just the A button, and the positioning of the B and C buttons can make games that require the use of them, such as the Arcade version of Missile Command, much less enjoyable to play, if not downright unenjoyable. Other than that, the controllers are quite good. The weight is also quite nice when the batteries are installed. On the top, there are Home, Select and Start buttons. On the back is a Menu button, a connectivity light, a USB-C port and a power switch. Some people have found that input latency is a problem when using the controllers. Because it uses the common wireless 2.4GHz protocol, other devices that use 2.4GHz, such as routers, TVs, mice, etc. can interfere with the signal, causing issues. However, these controllers can be used wired, though you have to provide your own USB-C to USB-C cables. This will eliminate all of the wireless related latency. And when using them wired, you don't have to use batteries in them, though without the batteries they'll be considerably lighter in weight. With this said, I notice barely any input latency at all when using them wirelessly. The latency is so little that it's nearly imperceptible. In fact, it's less than with both my 2600+ and Flashback 12, and both of those use wired controllers. Other... Though the unit comes with a USB-A to USB-C power cable, it does not come with a power adapter. You need to provide a 5V adapter of at least 2A. It also comes with an HDMI cable. Summary... All in all this is a great system. It's a lot of fun. The selection of games is quite good and the game play is outstanding, even for the paddle games. There is also new firmware available and there are videos on YouTube that give step by step instructions on how to update it. Mine came with version 1.20, and the new firmware is version 1.30. It contains some bug fixes as well as changing the games layout on the screen, making it easier to sort through them. Two pieces of advice: - If you're using a modern TV, make sure to set the TV to Game mode in the picture settings. Without doing so, the latency can be fairly noticeable, as the TV processes a lot of things for the picture. Game mode disables all of that extra picture processing, making the picture response much more real time. - This is an important one. Look at the seller reviews before you buy this, and make sure to buy it from a good one.

This is my new favorite thing. But the out-of-the-box experience is admittedly weak... As this item arrives, it feels quality and the controllers are nice. But the game selection is not impressive (and my favorite console is the Atari 2600) and the UX/navigation is boring and confusing. There are only 130 actual atari games, and its missing many of the classics (probably due to licensing). The other 70 games are random NES/SNES/arcade filler, most of which are bad... Still there is Asteroids, Tempest, Centipede, Missile Command etc and in console and arcade variations. But the end result feels kind of like one of those cheap flashback systems. The controllers are gorgeous and feel very nice though-- in my opinion much better than the original cx40. But the button layout is awkward. Its not a problem for old one button games, but you'll keep forgetting which button is which on a 16bit title. It also includes all the accessories you need but it only has hdmi output. I would prefer an analog option for older tvs but there are adapters available. And the controllers take AA batteries which is kind of a bummer. So out of the box I would give this only 2 stars... Fortunately you can fix a lot of issues yourself. Start by installing the updated firmware (currently 1.30), which seems more complicated than it should be but there are plenty of tutorials on youtube. That improves the interface and rom loading experience. Then you can add a micro sd card of your own roms (games). It currently plays most any game on atari 2600/5200/7800, NES, SNES, game boy/color/advance, arcade (mame2003) and sega genesis/master system/game gear. This is where it really shines. There is no flashy interface for the games currently, just a text list, but new updates keep coming and certainly this will improve with time and hopefully support for colecovision/intellivision and c64. As it stands this is my new preferred way to play atari games, even over the retron77 and 2600+, but of which I also recommend, especially if you have cartridges too.

I was really excited for the "My Arcade Atari Game Station Pro," but unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations. While the idea of 200+ classic games sounds great, the overall design feels cheap and low-quality. The controller doesn’t feel comfortable, the buttons are mushy, and some games don’t respond well during play. The graphics and sound just don’t capture the classic experience I remember, and after spending this much, I expected much better build quality and performance. For the price, there are better retro consoles out there that actually deliver. I’m disappointed and wouldn’t recommend this one unless the quality is improved.

I am a big fan of old school Atari games. I already had a 2600+ and a 400 Mini, but the Gamestation caught my interest because it also has over three-dozen Atari arcade games included. I was a bit leery because the included controllers look rather clunky and awkward. I received mine, fired it up, and immediately played several games, including Asteroids, Sky Raiders, and I, Robot. I also tried out some 5200, 7800, and 2600 games. The controllers actually work reasonably well. I thought I noticed a slight bit of lag, so I picked up a USB-C to USB-C cable to connect the controller directly to the console. The emulation is quite decent, and I am pleased with the GSP. I did spend some time downloading and installing the 1.3 firmware update. It requires a Windows PC and perhaps a bit of tech savvy. Once this is installed, there are some improvements, and it's worth doing. I have also side-loaded a number of 2600, 5200, 7800, and arcade games, and most (about 95%) run well. Overall, it is a real treat for Atari fans.

Fonctionne parfaitement correspond à la description

Witam, kupiłem i oddaję. Opóźnienia kontrolerów nie są dla mnie do zaakceptowania.Nastawiłem się głównie na ponga i te pokrętła na joysticku....Opóźnienia i nierówne przemieszczanie "paletek" po ekranie wygląda jak na starej konsoli pong z zaśniedziałymi potencjometrami (osoby, które się wychowały na poczciwym pongu Elwro, wiedzą o co chodzi)

Heb hem een paar dagen geprobeerd, werkt prima ook de joysticks , paddel werkt bij mij ook perfect. De ingebouwde games zijn ook heel goed te spelen. De paddel op de joystick is heel gevoelig wat ik wel fijn vind spelen. Geen spijt is gewoon weer een super product.

good one,like it
