CES 2017: Retro Gaming Market Grows with new Mini Arcades from My Arcade

In this day and age of high definition, HDR, and 4K gaming it is quite amazing that retro gaming is enjoying a serious revival.

All you need to do is go back to the holiday shopping season and see how hard it was and continues to be for people to get their hands on a Nintendo NES Classic mini console.

At CES this week, My Arcade announced a new set of mini arcade gaming machines and, once you get that Nintendo NES Classic, they also have a new line of accessories to use with it.

In this video, My Arcade's Marketing Manager Crystal, shows us the Mini Arcades and the NES Classic accessories.

But, wait...there's probably more so be sure to follow me on Twitter and Google+.

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
