I ordered mine last week and it turned up a few days later. It is absolutely brilliant!

Sega Megadrive Volume 2 (Plug n Play TV Games)

February 04, 2005
I bought this for my wife as she loved Sonic and Alex the Kidd when she was younger.

She loves it! And I'm sure she'd give it a full 5 stars, it gets four stars from me though as even when the Megadrive was out I was still a ZX Spectrum kid at heart.

If they ever bring out a ZX Spectrum version of these plug and play jobbies then I'll be ready to dish out five of those big boys.

The music and the speed of gameplay is exactly how we remember it - this is a great gadget to kill some time with nostalgia!

Ms Pacman - Namco 2 (Plug n Play TV Games)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Plug and Play TV Games
from: Jakks


There's not much to say about this little box other than it's brilliant from the stylish retro design of the system to every gaming aspect. The games feature arcade perfect gameplay (occasionally with the high score moved to the side to fit your TV screen better).

I am hooked on Ms. Pac-Man which has always been my favourite Pac-Man game and hours seem to pass when I'm alone with her! (Don't tell my girlfriend!!!) I'm sure no one needs a further explanation of this one.

Pole Position is incredibly playable thanks to an ingenious control system whereby you twist the joystick in the direction you want to go rather than pushing it. It feels sort of like an arcade steering wheel. This only takes a few seconds to get used to ... Read More:

Atari Classics (Plug n Play TV Games)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Plug and Play TV Games
from: Atari


Undisputed leader of the home videogame market was Atari's truly revolutionary 2600 console. In fact, the pixellated magic produced by this teak-effect box of jiggery-pokery helped Atari shift over 30 million units and the 2600 (or VCS) is now universally regarded as the godfather of home consoles. Even today, videogame aficionados fondly remember that primitive, thumb-numbing Atari joystick with blister-tinged affection. Which is just as well, because ingenious boffins have now managed to cram 10 classic Atari games into an officially licensed replica Atari joystick!

The 10-in-1 really puts the "joy" in joystick, and you'll be unable to put it down, even when it's not plugged in. In fact, position it next to your PS2/Xbox/GameCube ... Read More:

Mortal Kombat (Plug n Play TV Games)

May 27, 2005
One of the best Mortal Kombat games ever has now been released so you can play it on almost any TV, what more could you possibly want (apart from mabe Mortal Kombat Trilogy in "plug 'n' play edition").
Since I baught this its been so annoying having to wire up an old plastic box ( or a Nintendo to most people) to my TV every time I want to play have a VS match with my mates or just have a short fight on the best fighting game iv'e got.
So my message to you all is:
" If you like Mortal Kombat then BUY THIS NOW!!!!"

Sega Mega Drive (Plug n Play TV Games)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Plug and Play TV Games
from: Radica


This is a great little game pad to buy. The game controller is exactly the same as an original Sega Mega Drive controller bar the colour & added menu button, & the battery unit is even shaped like a mini Mega Drive bar the cartridge slot & reset button! Games included are Sonic the Hedgehog, Altered Beast, Golden Axe, Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, Kid Chameleon & Flicky. All are fun games to play, & will keep you hooked for many hours. The only slight drawback with the machine is the sound quality. It is not as good as the original Mega Drive, but this doesn't stop the unit from being a worthy buy.

If you've played them all before, buy it. If you've never heard of them before, buy it!

Sensible Soccer Plus (Plug n Play TV Games)

from: Radica


Forget FIFA, forget PES, forget anything else. As far as playablility and addictiveness goes this beats them hands down. As a two-player game it is faultless - fun and fast. The only let down is the fact that the save game function isn't up to scratch (it fails to save the game when you switch off). Awesome stuff.

Namco 5 in 1 Stick (Plug n Play TV Games)

from: Namco

January 30, 2004
I used to play the original arcade machine, so was delighted when I found this for sale. Lots of fun for the price of a meal and no food poisoning (although your fingers may ache a bit....)

It's a shame that it does not have an mains adaptor socket, as you occasionally find on these products. I use rechargables, which save me a fortune, although the manual recommends you don't. As long as you don't leave them in for an extended period, then you should be OK. Having to unscrew the battery compartment can be a pain if it is well used, but can understand why this is the case.

Reset control is stupidly placed, have deprived myself of some high scores, so it loses a star for that(!).
