Desk Top Arcade games

Check this out, how cool are these.

Best part is the guy who makes them is from my home town, seriously thinking of buying one. A bit pricey but it hit my 1980's nostalgia bone big time.

BTW apologies if these are old news.

Those are awesome. Would love to get some. Where did you find out the price? And how much is "a bit pricey"?

Scratch that, i just saw the price in the comments... :shock: :shock:
They a MASSIVELY over-priced!! I don't see much more than £30-£40 of value there. You can buy genuine vintage mini arcade games by nintendo for about 40 quid. He's having a laugh!
Nice but a gimmick that would get old after about a week.

Yeah upon quiet contemplation I reckon your right Pete, the interest factor would fade pretty quickly. Still dig the cabinets though. If you look through his other videos he's made a table top version as well.

Where do you get the Nintendo ones from, are they in a cabinet like these or just for one of their game systems.

Much better just to download the emulators and use your PC...
