Retro Games THE400 Mini

Under the hood, it seems to be something like a raspberry pi Or a 5 V powered nano computer with 25 built-in Atari cartridges. The price is reasonable at a penny under £100, considering that it is five Atari consoles in one , the entire range. Oh, one thing to note don’t be like me and spend five minutes scratching your head over why you can’t set up the initial set up because it doesn’t seem to obey the joystick directions that you push the stick iin. I thought the joystick was broken, But what the little startup booklet doesn’t Obvious is that the Atari joystick remake is an improvement on the original because The dotted line around the joystick with the up down left right markers are buttons! D’oh! It is powered by a British ARM processor With 128 Mb of storage memory more than enough for plenty of cartridges. The 30 second rewind function is genius Along with the ability to save your games. The Minoi400 I would say is not even a microcomputer In fact, it is a nano computer, No larger than a paperback and later than an iPhone 14. Upon opening the box, it may surprise you to find how dinky and cute it is. In fact, inside the case, they had to add four small weights to give it a little bit of heft. In order to play other cartridges aside from the 25 that are built in you will need to put them on a fat 32 format thumb drive. One thing you might want to do is remap a control or two in case you accidentally press one of the buttons that resets the game I did this several times with star Raiders two until I realised I was pressing the right direction button on the joystick By accident. Emulation is flawless. Buy with confidence. This little unit will replace all of your Atari consoles and you can sell all of the others because this one is ALL of them. This thing doesn’t even run warm it’s barely lukewarm. its processor has a passive heat sink. I noticed no problems, no glitches no slowdowns nothing. I am thinking very hard of something, but I don’t like about it, but I can’t think of anything. Nothing is ever perfect but this is pretty close hence the four stars. I’m not giving it five because there must be something about it that I’ve missed out is a quirk or a niggle but I struggle to think of one.

Bello per veri nerd….

Es una excelente réplica en miniatura del Atari 400, lleno de nostalgia y con funciones pensadas para los jugadores actuales aparte que le puedes agregar juegos. Una verdadera delicia.

I set up THE400 Mini in about 15 minutes using the provided directions and had no issues with any of the documentation or the on-screen menu. Much better quality than the older retros I have for NES and Super NES. My wife used to love the K-razy Shootout cartridge game for the Atari 800 that I sold long ago, because it's easier to play than Atari Berserk, which is built in. I gave the download instructions a try and got the Shootout game onto USB drive in about 20 minutes. It ran perfectly the first time. I'd give THE400 Mini six stars if Amazon would let me!

Es una manera de jugar retro sin gastar mucho.
