All these block games are Tetris as primary, but they have found ways to put other games on the same lcd. Sort of. A racer, a shoot em up, an arkanoid. That sort of thing. The Tetris “blocks” are controlled each as a single unit of the screen, though, so you effectively have an lcd that is literally 10 pixels wide by 20 high. Which is great for Tetris but reaaaaaally shit for anything else. They’re often available for 2-3 euros and have been for decades.

It's amazing that those 99 in 1are still used! I actually own one of these kind of devices back when I was 8 years old (i'm 35 now)... so 27 years ago and it looks identical!

Man, your Tetris skills are outstanding.. amazing.. on a league of their own!!

Me: *looks at title* Komdy

Glad you have a buncha fans who love the retro man

There are so many things out there.. thank you for making a video about them.

Your channel got me back into Nintendo, love the vids

This is obviously my first time I ever seen a mini portable rechargeable fan that has something other than just the flashlight (for example)... Instead, that particular one that you reviewed there has a brick game instead of the flashlight, although it feels as cheap as ever, though...

I want that little TV one for my 1/3 scale dolls lmao

Omg the Maplestory background music is a direct RIP

That last console was quite refreshing

15 years ago many of these devices would be pretty impressive if they retained the price point but adjusted for the times

I love where this channel is going, even if the best way to describe that is an intergalactic bullet train heading into the sun

just discovered your channel yesterday and i love it ! ❤️

thank you reviewing the retro mini tv because there was no reviews on that

You are a genius at naming videos and I applaud you

Omg I bet the immersion while playing excite bike is INSANE! hahaha thanks for finding this weird thing!

We need a video showing off all of your handheld consoles. The whole collection must be very impressive to see at once!

Your channel needs to blow up! You’re too funny man 😂😂👍

I know I'm 2 years late to the party but this video was just delightful. Much love from NY!

Woah, the Q8 actually running those 3 surprised me. I might actually get one of those despite it taking a year to turn on.

"That's a bit stingy" love the commentary!! ^0^

I hope this video circulates quickly cuz that console’s so cool it absolutely winded me.

Elliot has magical pockets with infinite batteries available at all times

At first i was not a huge fan but now it has blown me away.

Wow this Build really blew me away

Dude... That menu music ripped straight from Maplestory Henesys takes me back to my childhood

I thought this was a wheel of fortune console but it’s a fan lol! Great vid!

LGR calls these types of items "oddware".

i got one of those orb consoles (with a different name) it was the arcade cabinet one and it stopped working pretty quick and sometimes it would randomly go into some weird test mode.

I’m happy you posted this review so I knew the hype wasn’t all hot air it’s pretty cool

On the „one or two player“ choose menu. these two bees are from the japanese/german tv show „Maya the honey bee“ (originally Mitsubachi Māya no Bōken or most well known in German „Die Biene Maja“).

Your voice is mad calming I want to move outta Texas in just change my life around

Concerning the XYC console. If you open the console and remove the four pegs they put in the diagonals, it controls better. If you usesome moldable compound to raise the middle peg about 1.5 mm, controls even better. Add a dpad with 3M double sided tape, you can do fighting games after button remapping. The first mod is mandatory and easy to do, and I am surprised you did not mention the fact that without it, it only registers every other diagonal press. I noticed it right away, and you should have as well.

square with a triangle in it means you can screen share or screen cast... which is pretty cool for a device like that

That pun is FANtastic

HE SAID IT BOYS! HE SAID IT! *AIRHORN*

Its awesome! It blows me away!

The ORB has the same library of games as some MyArcade products in America.

This is the perfect handheld for me when I get into heat when playing games

There's a one in Brazil called Game Brick, that has the same software of the one with the fan. It costs about £2,50 and it's made since the 90's

That title was really _cool_ The square and triangle means TV output, I think.

1) Elliot, you are one dry mof'er in this episode with your physical comedy and sarcasm and holy crap I'm gone 2) apparently I had an exact clone of whatever is on that third gamefan thingie as a kid, I distinctly remember playing it. Definitely laid out in more of a Tomagachi or Pokemon mini configuration minus the right-side score screen though. It was kind of really fun given how boring the wait was where we were as I recall, but it was nice to have it and just hang out with the fam all day, I fondly recall that.

Fantastic!

That TV is pretty fun looking.

Now your playing with power, FAN POWER

Every orb console has the same games on it. They usually have them in supermarkets at Christmas for cheap stocking stuffers

i came in fully ready to watch more than a quarter hour dedicated only to the one with the fan that as featured in the thumbnail

The Brick Game was my first Digital gaming system lol

Retro Future Grab Bag? I dig it

Same I am also a big fan of this console its really cool

Fantastic

Most USB rechargable fans are able to run for 5-8 hours.. but only on the lowest setting. if you switch them just to level 2 or 3, they often only last for 2-4 hours. but they are really cool for the summer.. so if you want a fan, i would buy one specific for that task without a console build into it (you then can use it in bed on your nightstand or similiar).

Gotta love that the retro TV console has original ROMs yet uses unlicensed music from Maplestory on the menu

I was just about to sleep...I can wait a bit

The music for the tv is maple story

The little tv would be adorable for using in doll or figure pictures

The menu music from the TV console thing where you select is from Maplestory lol. Henesys to be specific if I was hearing it right

The handheld with the fan reminds me of the Playdate.
