It’s awesome works good just the controllers sometimes act up but overall I’m satisfied.
Ya know. I've read some off reviews on these but I play the pre 2000 games...and i love it. I ended up getting this because I wanted the atari tiger heli that was coming out. I decided to wait for the pacman version of the atari saw this while browsing. A few of the games (out of 1000s) are weird or don't work well (frogger) but there are different versions. For example with the frogger issue; i found frogger again under genesis and it works great. This is just an example. For the money- this cannot be beat. I know there are alot of similar gamestick 4k floating around. This one in particular works well; can't speak for the others or other versions. You basically get chronologically Atari to PS1. There are a lot of platforms I never heard of. One is called PC engine and its pretty cool. A+. Had it about a month and if it breaks tomorrow; it was worth it (I hope it doesn't). Plan on giving some of these for Christmas. I would imagine that just about every game you can think of from atari through sega genesis/Neo Geo is on here. There are a lot less PS1 games but there are a few.
It lags a little and one of the controllers kinda broke but lots of games and I still have fun!
This Game Stick Pro is way-better than FOUR sets of the inferior Game Stick Lite game controllers I have purchased, super-impressed. All of my "Lite" controllers wore-out within a week of limited-use (the carbon keypads break free of the silicone holder, extremely-cheap design), but this "Pro" controller is more like an Xbox-controller than the "Lite" cheap-toys. I purchased this solely hoping it had the Nintendo (NES) Dr. Mario, and this "Pro" version has the original Tetris/DrMario, unlike the altered-copy version on my four previous (quickly-defective) game sticks.This Game Stick Pro benefits:+ Uses "AA" batteries ("Lite" controllers used "AAA")+ Has many-more emulated platforms and games+ Emulator names / pictures are obvious ("Lite" has strange acronyms)+ Actually has the very game I bought it for, the exact original from 1992+ Controllers automatically power-down (no power switch)+ Controllers are ergonomic / robust= Wireless distance is the same as all my "Lite" controllers+ I will definitely buy this version again, should it wear-out from over-use
The equipment feels a little cheap, but it works fine, so I'm not complaining. With over 20,000 games, it's pretty understandable why they couldn't list them all, so for anyone looking for the same games I was looking for, it does have:Super Nintendo - Super Mario (all the old school Mario games) and SonicSega Genesis - The Lion King, Aladdin, Toy Story, Pinocchio, The Little Mermaid, Pocahontas, and Beauty and the BeastPlayStation 1 - Crash BandicootI watched all the videos and read everything I could about it, but for some reason, NOBODY mentioned any of these games, so I just bought it and crossed my fingers. lol. I got lucky!It's super easy to use. You essentially just plug it into the power source (I have mine plugged into my son's PS5), put the stick in the HDMI port on your TV, switch your TV over to the new HDMI, then hit the power button on the controller, and boom, you're ready for endless hours of nostalgic gaming! My daughter grew up on these games, so she loves it tooWARNING! If you plug it into another gaming console for the power source like I did (cuz it doesn't come with a very long power cord), don't turn off the other gaming console! My son turned off his PS5 without knowing it would shut off my game and I lost my progress. lolAll-in-all, it's pretty neat! Not something I would normally buy, but so glad I did. Definitely worth it. I've had it for about a day now and no issues so far. Will come back to update later if anything changes. Happy gaming! 🎮
