I felt like leaving a good review since people rarely do when everything goes smoothly, which is not

I felt like leaving a good review since people rarely do when everything goes smoothly, which is not fair to businesses. I placed my order and it showed up about a week later. It is a fun little console, and my 5 year old son is already hooked, especially on Tetris. Very happy overall and I would definitely order again.

You get the product - but misleading and not as advertised

Okay, you get the console from this company and it works. From that perspective they have delivered.But let's look closer:It claims to be based in the UK, but doesn't appear on the gov website. Unit delivered from China.It's sold at slightly higher cost than found on Amazon - around £18 more when a discount is already applied.The R36S console is generic, there is no difference between this and a generic one on Amazon. Unit is a bit flimsy but fine for the price, screen is quality.There is nothing unique buying via Retro Gaming Fun that differentiates it. The website images feature fake post edited 'Retro Gaming Fun' stickers - these are not added to the console on delivery.Delivery is longer as it comes direct from China and not an Amazon warehouse. Took over 1.5 weeks. Next day on Amazon.The software is just ArkOS - nothing unique to this company.Here's the real wool over the eyes:The 128GB version is actually a 32GB drive. Full image backup came to 23GB on a 29GB (32GB) disk.ROM game count claims:64GB = 20k128GB = 40kActual count around: 15k (specifically 15,489)Actual count is generous as some folders are repeated with top 100 lists, subfolders, groups of versions, etc. Fact is it's far less than this. A lot of games do not work (bad dumps), and are multi-region (repeats).The reviews are clearly fake. All 5 star & dated 03/04/2026.Buyer count 758 - likely.Recommendation before purchasing:Buy an R36S cheap on Amazon. Buy a new SD card - this is recommended as SD cards often fail after purchase. Install ArkOS fresh and move in your own ROMs, and/or the ones you grabbed from this supplier.

Really happy

Wanted to leave a positive review as there aren’t enough of them when things are good which would obviously cause businesses problems. Ordered and a week or so later it arrived. Really cool little console that my 5 year old son has fallen in love with already, Tetris mainly. Really pleased all round and would buy again

Seems like a scam! Dont trust them!

I’m extremely disappointed with how this company handled a faulty product and their customer service overall.I purchased a games console as a gift, but when my partner opened it and tried to use it, it was immediately clear that the item was faulty. We contacted the company straight away, and initially they appeared helpful, saying they had raised the issue with their technical team and would get back to us shortly.However, after that, we heard nothing for over a month. We had to chase them ourselves just to get an update. When they finally responded, they simply stated that their policy requires defective items to be reported and resolved within 14 days of delivery—completely ignoring the fact that we did report the issue within the timeframe and were waiting on their response the entire time.It feels like a deliberate delay tactic so they can fall back on their policy and avoid taking responsibility. This is not only poor customer service but also incredibly unfair.I would strongly advise others to be cautious when purchasing from this company, especially if something goes wrong—you may not get the support you expect.

So disappointed…

I bought an item for my son over a week ago, I still have not received an email to say when it will be dispatched, nothing to keep me updated, worst still , I sent an email this morning (a week day) and no reply.

Using 9/11 jokes as a marketing choice…

Using 9/11 jokes as a marketing choice in your ads is insane. People can joke about what they want but this is totally endemic of this new-age of digital slop content run by people who are motivated solely by greed.Screen-recorded the ad, and will be happy to post this to anywhere necessary.

Business Details

  • Retro Gaming Fun was born from a simple idea: the best games don’t age — they become memories.

    We created Retro Gaming Fun to bring back that instant spark you felt the first time you picked up a controller: quick to start, easy to enjoy, and packed with classic retro vibes.

    What began as a love for pixel worlds, couch co-op nights, and “just one more level” became a project with one clear mission: make retro gaming simple again — no complicated setups, no hunting for old hardware, just plug in and play.

    Every console we offer is selected with that goal in mind: nostalgic, straightforward, and ready whenever you are — so you can focus on the fun from minute one.See more
