Converting This 7inch $10 Tablet Into Retro Game Beast 👹

[@srvuk]

When you consider just how crappy the specs are but what it can do, it might inspire people to buy older tablets with slightly better specs for pennies, add a large controller and have a large screen handheld. Very useful and informative video for recycling.

They do sell them (Polaroid items) in the UK, usually in ASDA supermarkets.

But how did you get the game on the tablet

[@Browniedays]

If I could only change the battery to my old tablet, now I have a new one, but I feel I could have done more with the former one. I won't let that happen to this new one.

Love this kinda stuff. I got an old one laying around. I may have to make my beast! Lol!! And yes I've seen plenty of Polaroid stuff here in the States!

[@joncollins7730]

definetely a good use for an old tablet! Not sure if weve got polaroid here anymore. Strange as it was a prett big brand back in the day?

[@zockeromi1970]

Ah, yes i remember this thing

You should put Sonic 3 Complete so you can have the full game on your tablet. It has the complete game as Sonic 3 and Knuckles cartridge did once you had Sonic and Knuckles locked on to Sonic 3.

I just got a android tablet from a government program in my country and surprisingly it can handle most of the dreamcast library and the only downside is it can't handle N64 games though but it's worth it.

I have a old one that’s similar. It plays up to 16bit fine but doesnt play mame very well at all. The worse thing about them is they are extremely sluggish and herky jerky when using them in general. We are all used to snappy and quick lol. This thing moves like 🐌 💩

I mean it's interesting it can do it but I'm not gonna run out and find one of them To game on when I have other devices that can do it better and look. Better doing it.
