What it does

Your old console is dead in a box because it won't plug into your new TV, and phone games slide out from under your thumbs. The Playback puts that era back in your hands: classic arcade and console systems built in, a 5-inch IPS HD screen, a real clicking D-pad, face and shoulder buttons and dual analog joysticks in a console grip that stays comfortable for a two-hour session. Run an HDMI cable to the TV, pair a second wireless controller and it's two-player on the big screen. The 3000 mAh battery gives about 5 to 7 hours a charge over USB-C. For you, for the kids, and the gift nobody else thought of.
