 Rating:  - Ok, not "Exactly" perfect, but still hella funSome reviewers here are complaining about title screens, slightly off sound effects and not exact arcade translations. For the price and convenience, this product is more than worth it. Space Invaders" is indeed a great translation here, with near spot-on sounds and great nostalgic game play that is challenging, if primitive. "Phoenix" is also a blast! For these games alone, it's worth the purchase for this retro-gamer. Rating: - Very fun, though not quite "arcade-perfect".First off, to 80sGameFan: only certain versions of the arcade game did so, mostly through a cellophane overlay if the game was in pure black-and-white. The original color version had a small portion of the top being red, the majority of the middle as white, and from the shields on down as green. Now onto the review: Gameplay: gotta say this was a surprisingly well-built joystick. The stick itself has the usual Japanese-style ball top (with little indentations to make it sort of like ...

The joystick control which moves the tank left and right is not precise enough to play the game well. The arcade game used buttons for left and right, recognizing the importance of timing to dodge the incoming missiles. Rating: - Close but not perfect - still fun though.I'm 34, so I remember seeing and playing the original Space Invaders, QIX and Pheonix in the arcades. I love that very early era of videogames (late 1970's) when graphics were still crude and mostly black and white, but the whole idea of being able to control images on a TV screen was new and exciting. So I think most of the appeal of this stick will be to people of my age, rather than younger players who won't have the nostalgia factor to help them overcome their prejudice towards the crude graphics ... Read More Rating:  - I wanted to like this thing, I really did...But, I have to agree with "Old School Arcader" below - this thing is FAR from "arcade perfect." In Space Invaders, even though I thought this was an official license, the graphics are totally different and the bunkers are HUGE. How do I know the graphics are different? Because I have the real machine sitting 10 feet away from me. Believe me, it's not even close. The same goes for "Pheonix" - in this one, the graphics are exact but the game plays nothing like the real thing. You are supposed to be ... Read More |
