It's neither great nor terrible, but if you like Frogger, Time Pilot, or the NES version of Gyruss, this is for you, especially at this price. There are 6 games on this device, which is similar but not the same as the Arcade Advanced game on GBA. Think NES-on-a-chip.

Time Pilot
Frogger
Yie Ar Kung-Fu
Gyruss
Rush'n Attack
Scramble

If you're not familiar with the store, you should visit anyway, as it's a lot of fun. Lots of cheapies and gag gifts to be had. Link: http://www.fivebelow.com/

I bought this not to long ago as a filler item ($4 Amazon or TRU, I don't remember), and I can definitely say that I do not recommend this. It is very cheaply constructed and the control stick is poor and unresponsive. To make matters worse, the version of Yie Ar Kung-Fu is not the definitive arcade version which was included in the GBA version of Komani Arcade Advanced.

A while back when GameStop cleranced out their TV games for $5 each, I picked up Space Invaders, Ms. Pac-Man, Outrun 2019, Menacer, and Wheel of Fortune.

All of those games are better than this. Even for $5, it's not worth picking up.
 
My daughter bought one of these for Frogger. It is a POS. The thing never turns off, unless I remove the batteries.
 
I second what the OP says, I had the pleasure of running into one of these stores while visiting someone in VA, lots and lots of random cool stuff, far more interesting than your typical dollar store.
