Found at Kmart Broadway for $10 - listed online for $15 - perhaps try your luck at your local store.
Multiple units available.
Also there - reduced to $10 Space Invaders and Megaman 2

I didn't buy any so can't comment on the quality but thought it may be of interest to someone in the OzB community.

        Nope. They are controller/console hybrids that have their own battery compartment (3x AA) and AV (Red, White, Yellow) connections.

      You may need an AVI to HDMI Converter
      Here's an example: see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fk4832Fn0s

      Thanks for the link.

      The review was a great thorough write up.

      So it's not the real arcade Rom but the 16bit mega drive edition and it's really slow.

      Might give it a miss

      • Mugsy on 05/01/2023 - 11:12

        Yeah, special champion edition is the Mega Drive version.

    • Cave Fire on 04/01/2023 - 23:10

      diagonal fix pretty much mandatory…. it's unplayable otherwise. May have sold better if playable.

    • figarow on 05/01/2023 - 05:21

      Oh wow very bad…

  • blackfrancis75 on 04/01/2023 - 09:10

    IMHO there's little enjoyment in this game unless you are playing against a mate (which is impossible with only one controller), preferably with beer involved.

    • wtfnodeal on 04/01/2023 - 11:06

      To unlock a new character drunken master?

      • frozenchicken on 04/01/2023 - 11:23

        Down 8 beers before you turn it on to play?

  • hambuger on 04/01/2023 - 09:39

    Might get one just for the box. Been slowly building a stick when I can find good deals and this seems like a decent enough bit of plastic

    • Sythe on 04/01/2023 - 11:42
      +1

      I highly doubt you would want to use this for a DIY stick. You could pretty much grab any decently sized box and it would be a better choice than buying this.
      It is way too small and cramped to be an enjoyable experience if using this.

      • hambuger on 04/01/2023 - 12:05

        Yeah after looking at more pictures it's definitely way too small

  • bazingaa on 04/01/2023 - 09:56

    I have original Street Fighters 2 cartridge for SNES. Would this controller be better than the SNES controller?

      Apparently not, another comment linked to a bad review

      • bazingaa on 04/01/2023 - 10:05

        thanks, I was wondering about the arcades type controller in this.

  • gamemaster on 04/01/2023 - 10:03

      Exactly, when it is $5 I should give it a try to relive my childhood memory, used to cost a fortune to play at an arcade in shop decades ago. Btw, username checks out

      Indeed. I'm resisting this sort of junk going forward. Play once, store away for months and then throw it… No more!

    • boomramada on 04/01/2023 - 14:51

      Ozb e-waste marketing at it best. Novelty will wear off within first 1hr?

  • end user on 04/01/2023 - 11:36

    Wonder if this supports Guile's invisible throw like the true OG version?

    • Grish on 04/01/2023 - 12:03
      +3

      Na I think it's just like the crappy Sega megadrive version or something

    • blazn on 04/01/2023 - 12:04
      +2

      Can confirm nope. It's not even the OG SFII, it's actually Championship Edition. (False advertising really with the SFII logo being yellow and red)

      Will probably return as it also needs 4xAA batteries to power the unit.

      Probably would have kept it if it had even an AC power option.

      • Jackson on 04/01/2023 - 13:17
        +1

        Pretty easy to wire in a power socket to the battery contacts if you really wanted that, shouldn't let it stop you.

        I'm wondering if it's worth getting one of these to use at the guts of a dedicated SF2 Arcade, but I don't know what it's actually running, or if it's able to be used as two player if you add a second stick and buttons, or if it's hackable to load different games. For $10 bucks I could always afford to find out I guess

  • Andre1973 on 04/01/2023 - 11:51

    this year i haven't seen these at 2 kmarts in victoria (werribee + wyndham vale) - not that i'd want one of these but i was wondering why kmart hasn't got retro games stuff this xmas (last year they had the legends flashback console and i think the kmart ghost light).. maybe just our local kmarts not stocking them or i weirdly missed them

    As others have said I wouldn't recommend buying these as they seem poorly made and only have composite output. But just thought I'd note some Kmarts have them (or at least the Megaman ones) for $6.

      According to a review linked above, it's a modified Mega Drive ROM.

      • Jackson on 05/01/2023 - 21:28

        Why they would use this crap version and not the arcade is beyond me, they are paying for the license, did they get a discount for using this version? The only reason might be its a bit smaller and will run on (about 5c) cheaper hardware

  • thlunasa on 04/01/2023 - 14:33

    Being that I have a spare stick, PCB and buttons… this would be an OK shell for a DIY arcade stick, right? Just need to dremel some spots here and there?

      Yep afaik…

    Just off topic question.How do you guys play street fighters? I mean which platform if you play? Thanks

    • browser on 05/01/2023 - 11:09

      The arcade centre platform.

      You walk in, chose the left or right side, wait for another player to join. Or sometimes the linked machines are setup back to back, and you get a surprise when you hear that tone as another player has joined from the other side.

        For some of us the hard part is finding an arcade let alone one that still has a Street Fighter 2 machine.

    OK, summary of this device:

    • uses 4x AA batteries
    • mustard and mayo A/V connectors… no HDMI. Don't be surprised if you get eye cancer
    • based off the Sega Mega Drive's Special Championship Edition (has all the settings and game speed selection options removed so it plays slow)… but it's got the 4 boss characters playable
    • diagonals on the stick has issues. Fix in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fk4832Fn0s

    • silverrat23 on 06/01/2023 - 16:54

      Some stores will manually override the nation-wide price by sticking an orange barcode (with the new lower price) over the original.

      It's something to keep an eye out for the next few days.
