Ron i know you havent posted about Dkoldies in a long while, but you need to read their new blog posts on their website bud. Its something else. As always appreciate your vids.
At least those looked more like Game & Watches, the graphics on this one almost look like one of those fancy calculators from around the late 70s or so.. like before the original release of PacMan even
@@jacobg6528 Every household, by law, should be required to have two of these stationed at separate locations, with adequate lighting, at any given time!
This device was given away with a purchase of two tubes of Oreos in Finland. It even has the Oreo logo on the marquee. You can move faster if you tap the buttons quickly, and it never increases in difficulty. You can press the same button inputs over and over again, and beat the game without even looking at the screen.
PacMan is small because the screen is hard-coded with all of the game element shapes. So for PacMan and the Ghosts and Dots to all occupy any given space in the maze, they need to not intersect each other's shape. If they did intersect, both shapes would display when only one was being displayed.
"The maze isn't going to differ" - it's Pac-Man, the maze never differs even in the arcade original! Pac-Man is so small since he has to fit inside the shape of the ghosts/monsters. LCDs can't overlap elements; that's part of what makes their layout interesting.
I feel like this is made out of materials that some company had a warehouse full of these screens and other components and just thought "what the hell can we make out of these cheap bits now that they aren't needed for the thing we don't make anymore?" Then they realized it'd be easy to produce this product in however much of a limited number there would be. At least I really hope they didn't actually manufacture these parts just for the sole purpose of making this device. 😄👍
I got one of these for Christmas 2023... I played it for two minutes and put it back in the box, it's just sat in my girlfriends living room and has no intention of being moved.
Can you send me the play date so I can give it to my girlfriend. Those things are ABSURDLY expensive. But she always wanted one. Her grandpa is not doing great so she flew to China recently 😭
I'd sooner buy a pocket arcade handheld than one of those mini-arcade machines and I have absolutely no desire to play old arcade games on a phone with a touchscreen but, while I enjoyed a few fixed screen graphics LCD pocket games as a kid in the 1980s, there's no way I'd buy a pocket arcade machine in the 21st century without at minimum a proper TFT LCD screen and arcade ROMs (or enhanced modern versions) and I'd probably just buy one of those (Evercade) Super Pockets than a handheld dedicated to only playing a single game or a few games.
Not only does it exist, but it uses AAA batteries. They seriously couldn't tune it down to run on maybe just one or even button cells, the hardware is really that powerful? This isn't any different than those knock-off came consoles that Ashens (and others) reviewed, they look like a PS3, but it's some LCD game like Tiger handhelds. They still make them to this day.
Yeah unbox that Play Date cuz rechargeable batteries can go bad prematurely (won’t charge/hold a charge) if not fully charged at least once every 6 months regardless of playing it or storing. I believe it states this in the Nintendo Wii U manual
Cool vid on keychain pac man. Is OK looking the sfx is a plus. Great for a few mins now & again. Best version of pacman 3rd party is pukman (c64 & spectrum ) by bubblesoft I think.
Lol we ship these out of the warehouse in work in. Pacman and Tetris by Fizz Creations. Junk. 😅 We also ship those mini arcade machines and other crap.
@@dreadtheweekendyes it would have. I had a pac-man lcd game in the late 90s and I played the hell out of it. When it came to portable gaming back then people took what they could get.
@@pacmancdi cool, I guess it’s a personal thing. I’d be interested to see how your lcd Pac-Man compares to this one. I had mini munchman in the early to mid 80s and really enjoyed playing that.
Companies are making this stuff just know people with broken brains that crave a retro 80s fix to make it through another day. Shut up and take my money 😂😂😂 lol I'm the same, can't help myself 😂
The only good Pac-Man LCD handheld game is the Coleco one from 82, but this? The one that put this garbage on the market must have been wanting to jump on the Pac-Wagon for nearly 45 years.

Without the licensing , it would be $3
I'd buy that for 3 dollars. It's basically Pac-Man Game & Watch.
@@QuartzIsAnOxide Pac-And-Watch
Namco is about 20ish years late to the McDonald’s lcd toy happy meal craze

@@lapielazoolie Blaze with the Evercade Super Pocket does everything right. :D
Did you buy it that's why it "EXISTS"
Everyone is a simple mind now 😢
@jacobg6528 You are a Simple Jack. 😂
@Jay_Z. can't even come up with a joke on your own.. embarrassing and ironic.
@@jacobg6528 I'm sorry 😞.
That garbage exists because I WANT IT! And you also bought it. That's why it exists as well.
They would of been produced anyway loooool
@@jacobg6528 Every household, by law, should be required to have two of these stationed at separate locations, with adequate lighting, at any given time!
It exists for unknowing grandparents to buy for the grandkids thinking it's something fun because they know Pac Man is a video game.
🤷♂️
Imagine someone carrying that thing on their key ring.....sigh i would.
Sounds like people at Hollywood think videogames sound.
I absolutely love my Playdate. But I get it’s not for everybody.
Playdate is much much better than this. I mean, it also does 3D. Thats pretty awesome

+ it plays the Pac-Man intermission music when you pause it.
In the early 80's in my house in East Detroit us kids would have fought over that toy! Real talk!
If you dont treat it like a game system and treat it like a keychain thats not a bad little time waster

i spent hours and hours playing my pac-man lcd watch back in the early 80's
3 fps for that smooth gameplay experience
I got something like this for Christmas once when I was a kid. I played it a lot and really enjoyed it.
I wouldn't buy one but if I got one as a gift, I'd stick in the bathroom to play while on the crapper.
😂
I love the enthusiasm over what is nothing more than e-waste. I think the same about the Playdate too, but I'll be watching! You rock man!

They make those so people can buy something cheap and fun and so you don't have to worry about breaking or loose it unlike something more expensive.
I won one of these from oreo this year. It even says oreo on it. I want EVERYTHING with pac man so I am happy with it.
This is making the coleco one from the 80s look great. Even had some color.
Yeah, this device was out in the UK years ago, 2018 sounds about right. I think I saw them being sold in Primark.
Can you send me the play date so I can give it to my girlfriend. Those things are ABSURDLY expensive. But she always wanted one. Her grandpa is not doing great so she flew to China recently 😭
I love handhelds too. This thing straight up looks like something out of the late 80's or early 90's. lol.
Why only the extra lives actually LOOK like Pac-Man, not the actual character on the board?!

I love it. Total nostalgia and you can put your keys on it. What's not to like?
I'm honestly thinking about getting a Playdate.
That would be cool to buy and see if you can make the high score crash once you get to 99,999
LCD games are just nostalgic and hilariously fun if you just accept for what it is, cheap games lol.
Let’s get a live soon!!!! I miss all the random hilariousness that always goes down!!
Because Ca$???H GRAb! Duh!! LOL
Give me this in 1992, It would have been Hot Fire! and $29.99
Lol we ship these out of the warehouse in work in. Pacman and Tetris by Fizz Creations. Junk. 😅 We also ship those mini arcade machines and other crap.
Pacman is just a dot. You are correct, a one time play, then the next video, you have the unit turned on while you backing over it your vehicle
I tend to gravitate to self-contained gaming devices such as handhelds/arcades. I could see myself buying this on a whim if it was cheap enough
Yes somebody would have bought this 30 years ago😂
I've still got an old AT Games Megadrive handheld, plays okay but sounds like a strangled cat! 😹😹😹
Bought a tiger electronic R Zone.
Was ok.
Idk should of seen if I could of got a n64 instead.
Lack of money sucks.
This would've been acceptable 30 years ago
No it wouldn’t!
@@dreadtheweekendyes it would have. I had a pac-man lcd game in the late 90s and I played the hell out of it. When it came to portable gaming back then people took what they could get.
@@pacmancdi hmmm. Not sure about that. The 80s maybe. But in the 90s you had GB, GG, Linx etc.
@@dreadtheweekend not everyone had those. They were expensive and ate batteries like crazy.
@@pacmancdi cool, I guess it’s a personal thing. I’d be interested to see how your lcd Pac-Man compares to this one. I had mini munchman in the early to mid 80s and really enjoyed playing that.
I have a few handhelds like that in a drawer next to the crapper
This actually looks right up my alley! 😂
This was made with the Amico mindset of "Lets release the shittiest way possible to play a classic game!"
I wonder if the ghost AI is properly implemented
They also had licensed tetris preorder upcoming
Do you have the mcdonalds tetris from china that looks like a chicken nugget? I think there are sellers on ali express selling them now lol.
In my memory the only sequel better than the original is Empire Strikes back.
It exists bc people like you would buy it.
No hate.
I say play however you can.
You cheeto fingers gotta hop into actual reality and stop living on that cloud above it
I think there should be more such things
I had to enable peak brightness (HDR) on my phone to be able to see this bro 😂
Jordan vs Bird was great!
I can't see anyone playing this. You got better games on your 2003 Nokia.
He’s gonna take you back to the past…
Oh great I collect everything Pac-Man now I need to get that great I need to get two one keeping the package and one to open and play with oh great 😢
Didn't even get the extra life for getting to 10k
Those are stocking stuffers
I would play that thing a few times a week. I'm not hating it at all.
It exists because its AWESOME.
Someone brought me the same one a few years ago for xmas , utter rubbish
No plus points at all
Just keep it in your bathroom and play it when you go for a dump.
Who needs Switch2 😂
I want one.
i would so buy this lol as hardcore pac man fan just have it on my key ring lol
“look at this stupid thing” is not the content we were looking for.
Companies are making this stuff just know people with broken brains that crave a retro 80s fix to make it through another day. Shut up and take my money 😂😂😂 lol I'm the same, can't help myself 😂
peace be upon you sir
I got one for Xmas
THE KEYCHAAIN GAAAAME!!!!!!!
This looks worse than any other CASIO version...
Don’t say dude all the time.
Existing for TH-camrs
Just why
Man it's so stupid but i love these videos
This looks like a mcdonalds toy.

$15 for this? I wouldn't pay more than $5 at the most! But $3 and we have a deal.🤑
