    I've never done more than 1 at a time.  This should be interesting.  I'll do it like an assembly line.  Clean and wash is 1st step.

    Astrosmash, Star Strike, Advanced Dungeons&Dragons (both of them), Tower of Doom,  Thunder Castle, Utopia (if you have a 2nd player),  Venture and Ladybug are both nice ports.

    Are they all "original" games?  Or are there some emulated classics in there too?
     
    I like these kinds of systems myself.  Reminds me of the plug and plays that are good for some quick entertainment.

    My earliest 5200 memory is one of my friends getting one.  I'd go to his house, and we'd play RealSports Football.  It was a kick -- so many plays to choose from.  The controllers were a little different, but definitely Atari.

    I picked this up for my girlfriend's 8yo daughter. She is always trying my games and thought I would get her her own little system. To test the waters ya know? $20 at Walgreens didn't expect much. Wow was I wrong. It's not a bad little deal!! Screen is tiny but looks great, volume is ok, the games all work for the most part as they should and there are a good handful of titles though generic are very fun to jam on!!! I was shocked, might get one for myself just for fun!

    I got to see it in IMax 4k 3D, the only 4k screen in New England!!!
    At first I was meh after seeing it but after I let it settle into my brain I liked it more and more.
     
    Loved the limited use of Vader!!! I feel if he was on screen any more it would have mad him feel cheap. 
     
    The work to bring Grand Moth was a little glitchy but it did not take me out of the experience!! I can't even imagine how hard that is to pull off! Loved seeing him again.
     
    First 2 thirds were slow but needed to set up the greatness!!!
     
    And last, VADER GOING ALL JASON VOORHEES WAS AMAZING! 
     
    Over all I think it felt more like Star Wars than episode 7 did and I like it a little more than that one!!!!!
     
    Great fun flick!!!!

    No Ewoks, gungans, terrible child actors, or emphasis on CGI.  Episodes 1-3 are looking even worse than before -- I didn't think that would be possible. 
     
    Smart and believable story line.  I'll say it again, I loved it.

    Spoilers allowed.  Be warned
     
    I just saw the movie, and I absolutely LOVED it.  I'm dying to know what you all thought.
     
    I loved how they set up the story for "A New Hope".  I loved K2.  I loved the acting.  I loved the use of old footage (how the F did they do that with Tarkin?)  I loved that they had the nuts to end it the way they did.  Vader at the end...chills.  And the very end.....extra double chills.  WOW. 
     
    Disney can milk this cow for as long as they want...if they keep the quality this high, we are all in for years of treats.
