Plays most games very well.

I played the Atari VCS back in the day. Got the Pro system last X-mas. Yes some games are difficult with only a thumb disk controller. But ! The following games work great, Missile Command, Asteroids, Yar's Revenge, Centipede, Millipede and Gravitar. And I can tell you Gravitar was not in Canada back in the 80's. Gravitar is a great game on this unit. And being able to adjust the backlight level (3 settings) is good. The sound from the tiny speaker goes very loud if you wish and it has a head phone jack !
Plus lots of games that were never released and prototypes. It's fun to try Tempest but you can see why it would have failed because the unit can't draw the different play fields.
The bonus games include two original Nintendo games.

Very poor graphics

The device has very poor graphics even though they're old games. Plus there aren't as many games as I thought it included. So I'm not that impressed it probably won't get used very much. I was actually going to return it but I realized that actually thrown out the box.
