Dec 12th 2011, 11:03

Plug-n-play games connect right to your TV via standard RCA cables and are pre-programed with loads of classic games. Even better these are from the original software so your playing the authentic classic console and coin-op arcade games, not a port or recreation.

Although this sounds like new technology Plug-n-Play dates back to the early video game consoles of the 70s and 80s; referred to as "dedicated consoles" the games were pre-programmed instead of using cartridges or discs. The earliest example of this was the one version of Atari's Pong
