I designed a nostalgic 3D printable (FDM only) desktop sized multi-format video display monitor. A kit-bash of parts in a style mash-up between a mini Sony TV and the Amiga 1000 monitor. I call it the PixelVision AV-1000 Mk II.
This is an 'everything' input video source device including: HDMI, VGA, component, s-video, and composite video; and 3.5mm stereo audio input/ output. The portable monitor has pretty decent audio with two pairs of built-in speakers and excellent picture quality [2048×1536] with the OEM ipad (gen3/4) IPS LCD panel.

With 1300 games stuffed into a 2-player control panel, how is the experience for coffee table arcade gaming? Im looking at build quality, design, UI experience and overall gameplay presentation.
In summary: its meh.
The game list is too long to put in the desc; so Ive posted it on my website here: http://www.retrobuiltgames.com/reviews/pandora-s-box-5s-cp/")
