Micro:bit Retro Arcade

The Elecfreaks Retro Arcade is an all-in-one game console that transforms your BBC micro:bit into a retro gaming system. Thanks to the classic layout with a joystick, buttons, and built-in speaker, this arcade kit offers a real gaming experience, fully programmable via MakeCode Arcade.

The micro:bit is simply placed into the holder on top of the board. Using MakeCode Arcade, you program your own platform games, mazes, or reaction games, which you then play on the micro:bit’s LED screen. Thanks to the sturdy casing and clear layout, this kit is perfect for use in schools, workshops, or just at home.
