Don't get frogger - there's a 6 in 1 that has it + 5 more games.

Did anybody actually play spongebob? it looks so funny I'm tempted to buy it.

Yes, I'm shallow.

My little cousin got it for xmas and we watched him play it. It looked pretty boring and had graphics from a really bad nes game. I think he got bored of it after at most a week and went back to his xbox. :)

Both Walmart and Target clearanced out Tetris and Space Invadors for like $10. They have the Atari 2 Paddle version for $17 YMMV of course.

As for the Frogger game, its ok, if you're into going that far retro... The Namco ones aren't too bad, cept I already got them on Walmarts Black Friday 2for$20 dealie...

Pretty much these are just re-releases of the old games from the NES/SNES/Genesis days in a simple easy to use pack...

These game things are all going to fall across the board, as the 2 player systems are making their way out onto the market.

What 2-player systems? Apart from the Atari paddle and those poker/whatever ones, I don't think I've seen any 2-player plug 'n' play systems.

From what I hear, these are very cheaply made and the stick will wear out/break easily.

The ms pacman sure is. The Atari paddle ones seem very sturdy.

Hey - you could just get an xbox and run (almost) all these games on that instead.

Some of the Sega Genesis based TV games support plugging in a second controller. It's a daisy chain setup like the 3DO. The EA Sports unit (also Genesis based I believe) supports two players as well.

While looking at the Jakks site I notice some interesting items on the coming soon page. Capcom and Midway sets!

Did you just buy it? If so you should definitely (try to) return or at least exchange it (you may have better luck with the next one).

i tried to exchange it b/c it was a gift for a pacman fan, but gamerush never restocked the item. i ended up returning it :(

If you go into the CC B&M stores, they're all on sale this week, including the new EA Madden one for like $12 and the Atari Paddle 2Pack is half price. Worthwhile at $15 versus $30...
