Christmas time off topic ...... Arcade1Up, partycade

[davidhk129]

Has anyone bought one of those Arcade1up, or the smaller version Partycade (or Countercade) ?

If yes, how do you like it ?
I am interested in the Galaga model but it is not available in Canada.
Pac-man has gone down the price from C$499 to C$379 ( Amazon.ca). It is tempting, but not my first choice.

Being of the DIY all the things persuasion I'm a big fan of the retro gaming options available on raspberry pi.

Have run retropie on one (pi 3B+) for a while for Nintendo and Atari games, and just setup a Pi4 with "Lakka" which appears to be an OS built on retroarch but was basically plug and play to get that running from raspberry pi "NOOBs" recovery image (the "canakit" rapberry pi kits come with everything needed including microsd card already flashed with NOOBs just plug everything in boot up connect to network and choose OSes you want including Lakka). I also got some DIY joystick button sets but have only made one "speed stick" setup so far, but yah it's another rabbit hole.... Maybe just buy that thing
