Review: Amazing mini arcade - Great seller and excellent product
for my mini arcade collection. Thanks.
Review: Underrated Shmup Classic! - The Astro City Mini V is an
awesome and very underated unit that compiles some of the best
and most unique shoot em up titles that were never released
before in home consoles or ports outside of MAME emulation and
remained arcade exclusives only. If you are an oldschool fan of
shmups it is truly priceless and a piece of gaming history. Just
to have oficially licensed ports of Armed Police Batrider, Battle
Bakraid, Truxton 2 and Outzone is truly a blessing and is worth
it just for these titles alone. It also has some other great ones
here too. Batsugun is also included, one of the best and it is an
alternative way to play it. The games play in very high quality.
When connecting the unit through the HDMI port to a HDTV it has
perfect frame rate, improved sound and just a lot better quality
than emulating them in general. Apparently it is compatible with
some Sega mini controllers and Mayflash arcade sticks through the
Mayflash magic sticks but have not done any testing on that yet.
The unit controls are responsive and do the job just fine but for
getting the most out of the unit, it would be a great idea to
connect it in to a big screen or monitor and change the rotation
vertically or TATE mode on the main menu settings. No input lag
from my unit and cannot truly understand where most complains
seem to come from since I have personally not experienced any lag
and the games are completely playable. Do not miss out on this
gem of a unit if you are a fan of shmups due to reading negative
reviews that are completely baseless and incorrect...Great
delivery service by desertcart. One of the best purchases I have
ever made and would highly recommend this awesome unit. 10 out of
10!
