The MyArcade Bad Dudes 6 Inch Mini Arcade game system is a miniature version of the real arcade cabinet from back in the glory days of arcades. These collectables make the perfect gift for the hard core video gamer as well as for those who have the nostalgia for retro video game systems.
You can get the the MyArcade Bad Dudes game system from Amazon here.
The miniature arcade system stands 6 inches tall and needs three AAA batteries to function. The good folks at MyArcade have even gone a step further with the power options by also including a mini USB port at the back of the unit. This means that you can play your favourite game of Bad Dudes without the need of any batteries. Instead, you can simply connect a mini USB cable from the back of your miniature arcade cabinet and plug the other end of the cable into a free USB port on your laptop or desktop computer for power.
That being said, the MyArcade Bad Dudes 6 Inch Mini Arcade cabinet looks really good on a desk in your home office or have it in the office at work and by the envy of your workmates.
The decals on the cabinet look really great as well showing the Bad Dudes characters as well as the game title.
This little system is also an officially licensed product from the creators of the Bad Dudes game, notably Data East, so this makes it a true collectable.
Looking at the controls there is a Joystick on the left hand side of the control panel which be easily unscrewed to convert into a fully functioning D-Pad. There are two action buttons of the right hand side of the control console as well as a start and select keys located in the centre.
The 2.5 inch colour screen looks really nice and the gameplay of the Bad Dudes game itself is very similar to the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) version of the game. There are a set of external speakers located at the back of the game and there is also a 3.5mm audio jack available as well so you can play your game without interrupting others nearby.
The icing on the cake is the actual packaging for the system because it is designed so that you can enjoy looking at the miniature arcade system while it is still in its box and you can also tae it out, play it and put it back inside the box with ease.
In addition to Bad Dudes there are also two other game systems available: Burger Time and Karate Fighter. Want to get your hands on these cool systems? Well you can get the Burger Time micro arcade system from Amazon here and Karate Fighter micro arcade system from Amazon here.
