I saw this a while back and must of dropped a hint to the misses as she got me one for Xmas. I've tried a few ways of having arcade games at home with a jailbroken original Xbox and lately a Wii running MAME arcade but this is the tits!

Nothing beats the original consoles

Issues with Pandora's is knowing who to trust buying them off (if you buy Chinese then think of the import duty) and the quality of the games.

£100+ is a gamble

Mine came from a UK seller and I agree anything from China is too bigger gamble. If anyone wants the link to where she got mine from I'l happily pm you.
I'm very into the retro scene and arcades were heaven to me as a boy back in the late 80s to 90s and this is about the most affordable way to geniuinly recreate that experience :)

Those looking for a Pandora's box alternative, raspberry pi 3 with a retropie imaged SD card.

There are images out there with 7800+ retro games loaded.

I've got your name written here in a rose tattoo.
