Well I for one am awful at spending money, and rarely buy anything for fun because I'm a compulsive saver. But this is DEFINITELY WORTH THE PRICE, AND SUPER COOL. I will be buying two of them!!
It's so cute and amazing. It seems that each channel is divided into parts rather than the whole movie. Thank you for always introducing interesting devices. (I'm having fun in Korea)
I was so disappointed the back to the future scene is edited! Terrible when the best quote from the movie is edited! They need to up there game at this price point.
Yes I would buy this one and back to the future and the bat man next time when I shop on Amazon I’ll take a look for them Jon I was on Amazon last night doing some shopping!
@@gregsnarke610 Oh, Amazon is way easier, but if they don't carry it, you're out of luck. I wish I could buy Google Home devices there, too. But no dice. 🎲🎲
@@GenXGrownUp I know if they don’t have it I’m out of luck 🍀 but I can always found something else cool 😎 and fun 🤩 that doesn’t stop 🛑 me from shopping on Amazon lol 😆 one track mind.
$27? Look it's a neat little gimmick and if you have nostalgia for a particular era of TV model but it's not worth it at that price. Maybe on clearance for $10.
Start checking your local Walmarts for the Star Trek one, eBay has a seller that's been scalping it for $59.99+9.99 shipping out of Niagra Falls, New York, 10 times now since April 12, 2022! 🤬
I have seen all of these in stores, except the Star Trek one which other than Batman is the only one I care about. I have no interest in them. I would rather they have spent the time and recourses to make better arcade mini cabs. The Basic Fun arcades were fun and were not worth the $25 original prices but I got almost all of them on clearance. These to me are not really worth it to pay retail for as they offer very little re-play ability and out of the package, it's hard to tell which movie or tv show is on it if you collect them out of the box. They are very neat and cool looking units in the packaging. If I find Batman or Star Trek on clearance I will get those.
It would be worth it if it held the whole movie. Other then that it's totally not worth it.. cool tho.... U get clips and stuff that's a total value of maybe 8 bucks but they sell these things for like 35 bucks. Nah man
I think these would make great Christmas gifts for fans . I think it's worth the price in that aspect
Awesome nostalgia. I'll pick up some of the 90s themed ones in the bargain bin in a year or two.
If we can keep them out of the hands fo the scalpers, I suspect you're right!
Nope, still $30 and rising.
Thanks for uploading I just looked up a review for this out of curiosity
Glad I could help
@@GenXGrownUp I'm just about to read and reply email after giving them a recommendation on making an aliens or Miami Vice versions
@@Mr.Spanky Would have to get the license for those Jan Hammer tunes to make Miami Vice clutch!
@@GenXGrownUp they said they loved the idea and would pass it along so cool like mailing a letter to the Pokemon center
Man that’s cool, gotta get my hands on one of these. A little pricey but worth for decoration
Make it happen! 😉

You're welcome 😊
It reminds me of watching tv shows and movies on Gameboy advance cartridges
The Video Paks! Ed, Edd, & Eddy, Spongebob, Johnny Bravo... 😀
If I see one at a thrift store for $5 I'll still have to think about it lol
Ha!
Stinjy
Whew...26 dollars plus tax is steeeeep! But if you're a JP super fan, it would be a fun display. Great video!
For it to be recognizable as a JP product, it would pretty much need to stay in the box, though, since the toy itself has no branding.
They’re pretty cool. I just can’t justify buying them for that much money. But it’s still a cool collectible.
Yeah, at that price they're laughing all the way to the bank.
That's a very common feeling among commenters here.
Yes, you were correct! July 16, '93, specifically!
They are on toys r us Canada too
Cool. What're they selling for?
2:26 Smallest, Universal logo, ever
That for sure!
I do wish they put in the full movie… i mean i am playing megadrive on a small device with that tv scale too
I'm sure they could, but at this quality, I can't imagine watching an entire film on one of these.
@@GenXGrownUp 15 years ago i would have agreed with you. But with 2022s codec compression i am sure its nothing impossible.
@@kaizer3000jp Better compression is do-able, but it's not present on this toy. 😎
@@GenXGrownUp yeah.. sadly.
Cute😊

If it were of a more watch-able quality, that might have bothered me. 😉

I think they're Walmart exclusives at the moment. Maybe you coudl find a reseller on Amazon, though.
@@GenXGrownUp I’ll take a look 👀 on Amazon when Covid-19 first started I was shopping on Amazon anyway it’s easier.

I gotten one from game stop only shows me the legal stuff and none of the clips
Oh, no!
I need em all
Availability is really sporadic. I won't see them for weeks on end, then a big pile show up in the toy aisle.
Wow! I didn’t know they had these. Very cool. Off topic question: will the Atari vcs ever have an app/virtual controller
Hi, Karyn. Thanks for watching. I just replied to your question about VCS acessibld controllers on your previous comment.
@@GenXGrownUp thanks. 👍
@@GenXGrownUphi. I emailed Atari about an app controller. I’ll let you know what kind of response I get - if I get one. 😊
They need to make a ninja turtle one
Could be cool. What would be on it though? A movie? Cartoons?
@@GenXGrownUp 2003 tmnt season 1 I think that would be awesome
@@GenXGrownUp cartoons
I initially thought they were the full movie
Fun for clips, but I don't think I'd enjoy trying to watch an entire film at this compression. 😜
$27? Look it's a neat little gimmick and if you have nostalgia for a particular era of TV model but it's not worth it at that price. Maybe on clearance for $10.
That seems to be the prevailing sentiment. 😀
Sounds like the pet rock of 2022. I can get a rock anywhere and probably better rocks but this one costs $30
Great review!
Glad you enjoyed it
Did you see that there's also a neat new one for Jaws using Back to the Future's TV style? 😎
I saw it was coming, but haven't seen it on shelves yet.
Have they ever did any Doctor Who stuff? Great vid as usual. 👍👍👍
No Doctor Who so far. Thanks for watching, Tommy.
No way these will sell like the video games did...
I tend to agree with you there. 📺
I’ve gotten it and it worked for a little bit UNTIL. IT DIDNT WORK
I can't help you, but I know who can:

Hopefully sometime down the road they will release a Simpsons one since they already got Family Guy and Bob's Burgers.
Simpsons seems like a no-brainer. I wonder if licensing is getting in the way of that one.
@@GenXGrownUp That might be a possibility.
The remote won't work for me.
I'd recommend checking the battery.

I've got my eyes open, but nothing in my area yet.
I better get the full movie for $26
Haha! Right?!
It is pretty cool but not my favorite title.. but cool none the less.. but at those prices I have no interest.. a wait for the bargain bin buy for me
That seems to be the prevailing sentiment.

If I ever spot the Star Trek one, I'll nab it, too.

Not much content in there for the money....yikes!
Keep an eye out for the bargain bin!
5.8.23
That's today's date. 🤔
The JP one is money in the bank..throw it in a closet for 30 years and cash in.
I'm not sure I have 30 more years to wait! 😁
@@GenXGrownUp LOL you and me both!
