All in one system - Old Games

Has anyone bought one of these all in one systems that has about 50,000+ games? For example the Arcadian. I realize raspberry PI is similar, but these look a lot better and more organized.

I would be interested to hear from anyone who has the Arcadian system as well.

I bought one of those mini Nintendo things awhile back. It was kinda cool to play all the classics but it didn’t have the ability to save anything.
Who the frick wants to play Zelda start to finish with no stopping ever? Haha.

Just looked through this website. 50k games going all the way to Dreamcast seems too good to be true, but hopefully you can let us know if it’s as good as advertised

It’s coming from China and it’s already shipped.

I bought one of those as well last year. It was fun, but not being able to save was definitely a pain.

That's odd; back in the day when I was using emulators for 80% of my gaming, practically all of them could generate "save states." Of course, they were running on a PC.

Reporting back:
I purchased the Arcadian Pro.
I finally received this in USPS on Monday. First off let me say shipping was a complete shite show. The third party shipping company they use in the US is terrible. Now to the fun…
It seems pretty legit. They don’t have a huge N64 library. Some games were missing like WCW vs NWO, Gauntlet Legends, and a few others. They did have Mario 64, Mario Kart, and Goldeneye. Mario 64 is a little buggy with graphics, but for the most part played as expected. The PS1 library is big, but missing games like Twisted Metal and FF7. Everything else they pretty much have. They have just about every game from SNES, Sega, and on down. All in all, I’m happy with the purchase and I’ll be continuing to explore old games.
I’d be happy to answer any questions.

Someone else mentioned it but can you save your progress? How many games and what consoles?
Posted on 12/12/23 at 10:47 pm to HailToTheChiz
Yes you can save progress. They say 50,000 games. Ataris, gameboy, nes, snes, PS1, N64 and other systems.

Is it an open ended device? If so you could upload your own ROMS to it and be able to play games it doesn't have on the emulator.

Is there a search function? What's the controller like?
Posted on 12/13/23 at 8:22 pm to bubbz
I’m hoping one day we get one of those that has GameCube and ps2

It’ll happen some day when they write an emulator that can work with the processing power available.
Granted, it is probably easier for GC stuff to just see if there is a way to hack a Wii since it has GC backward compatibility. See if there is a way to use images rather than frick around with those micro-discs.

Yes, there is a search function. If you put in Street Fighter, it will list all versions, from every system on the console.
The controller is a battery powered PS1 controller without vibration. Works well enough, just have to figure out what the buttons are mapped to for each game. I'm worried my 10yo is going to mess it up, button smashing.
You also can put games you want in a Favorites category, because the lists can be overwhelming at first.
