I praised that dandy self-contained gadget for capturing the flavor of those 25 classic Intellivision games, even if a lot of the finer details were left out. Those of you who thought I was going easy on that game should just stop reading this review now. Because I kinda dig this quintet of Namco goodness — with some significant reservations.
A single action button is positioned to the left of the joystick, almost like an Atari joystick. On power-up, the unit presents a dandy little graphical menu, complete with animated characters and a logo for each game.
