ARCADE CLASSICS AT HOME WITH THE SUPER RETRO-CADE
There are plenty of classic games we all remember playing in the arcade, spending countless amounts of quarters to keep the gaming experience going for hours and then before we were done our pockets were an empty abyss! Going to the arcade was always exciting for me as a child and even a short gaming experience was a blast but what if I could bring that experience home. Well, I can, there are many different ways to bring the arcade experience home with me and I can enjoy countless hours of arcade goodness. I could build or purchase a Mame cabinet, I could get a pandora’s box arcade console, or I could build a raspberry pi table top or full arcade system but what if I just want a small home console that brings some of my favorite arcade games into my home? Well, Retro-bit has answered my prayers and brought me the Super Retro-cade.
What Is The Super Retro-cade?
The Retro-bit Super Retro-Cade brings the arcade to your home is a small plug & play console. The Retro-cade is packed with 90 classic games from popular developers such as Capcom, Data East, Technos and even Irem. The Retro-Cade has not only Arcade classics but also Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo, and even one genesis game.
What’s Within The Box?
Within the box are the Retro-Bit Super Retro-Cade console, an HDMI cable, two Super Retro Controllers and a power adapter. The box itself was well designed and extremely eye-catching, unlike Retro-bit’s Res Plus box which I felt was generic. The box alone would catch my eyes while walking through a local Target or Walmart and would be the reason alone that I went ahead an purchased the system.

Final Thoughts
