Yes, I discovered that later -- it looks a little ghetto, but it DOES work, and makes landscape-mode games playable.

My dad and I spent like the last year and a half writing a game specifically for the iCade. It's called "Retro Robots". It works great and we're really proud of it - I hope you'll like it!

Battle Kid 2 Lite, Phoenix HD, and Spellsword are all a lot of fun. If you like Neo Geo shoot em ups from the late 90s, Blazing Star works as well.For Blazing star, you need to minimize the game once it's running, then re-open for the icade to sync.I've heard Stardash is gameboy-style fun as well but I haven't played it.

I actually returned this game and bought one with a backlit screen for my husband, who has been playing handheld solitaire for years. He has never complained about not being able to win. Never heard that one before. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I like the games sometimes, too, but sometimes I don't. My favorite is Triple Free Cell, but it takes sort of a long time to play, and a good bit of patience. Once in a while, when I have finally reached the point so I will win, one of the cards just takes off on its own, drifts right off the page! And the whole thing freezes. Nothing more you can do. Frustrating.

I only played these games on Windows XP and never played them on Windows 7. If it says for XP only, I don't think it will play on 7. Sorry, I can't be more helpful.

Yes, but Tetris and couple other games doesn't work. But it well worth the money in my opinion.

Thank you for your inquiry. I am using these for other apps. Other gamers have bought 14 of them so far!!

Atari's Greatest Hits app is the one I am using; the base app is free but you have to spend extra for game packs

I still haven't gotten it to work on my computer! The only thing I have found it works on(outside of android phones which support everything, even a playstation controller) is an iphone that has the small amount of games that the controller is compatible with. Sadly most of the games are very stupid and are only designed for young kids to play. If you go to their website you will see which games it can be used on.

Where did you find the game? I don't want to play online...I want the software and am running Win 7 now as no other choice on a new computer..I would love it if someone would enlighten me to get a copy of some games. I had a bare bone computer from AMD and made it how I wanted it....so now running 64 bit instead of 32 bit and my old copy of scrabble I purchased and worked well with XP will not load...is there a way to load this with Win7 that I don't know about? I put the CD in and nothing...thank you for any help...

I haven't had experience with this personally but all I had researched it says that it doesn't work with the original Xbox games such as halo 3, nfl fever..all the backwards compatibility games. Something about a necessary partition being missing. All Xbox 360 games it works for I've played/used it with battlefield 3 bioshock infinite,mw2 and 3 ncaa 14 as well as have state of decay on the hard drive along with the free good games crackdown and assassins creed 2. I'd reccomend it with my eyes closed its really insane how much the Microsoft branded one costs when this one does all you need for 50 dollars.

Most play fine on 8.1. I've had trouble with the older games like the original Command and Conquer. Hope this helps.

It's a very old game and just doesn't want to work with newer computers. You might try compatibility mode as suggested by B Slater, but don't hold your breath. Sorry.

The games are not listed as such. What I did was I installed 10 at a time and then went in played a short game and looked to see if I really wanted the games on my machine. There are a lot of different types. Matching 3 or more shapes, which I enjoyed. The puzzle and logic games which I also enjoyed. Some of the hidden objects i kept. But there were some that were instructional. Like you own a business and you want to succeed. So you need to do different things like hiring people, ordering materials, building homes. You really need to go through them and see which ones are for you. I have retained about 20 games on my pc. The others I uninstalled in case I want to go back at a later date.

From everything I am seeing and reading it will not run well. In some of the forums they give to tricks and twists to try but they don't sound too easy or appealing to me. I guess it boils down to how badly you want to play it. I hope this helps.
