The Tiny Arcade is based on Arduino platform and the cabinet sports a full color OLED screen, an anologue joystick and two push buttons, built-in speaker and a rechargeable battery. The cabinets can be customised with supplied artwork stickers. You can also play MP4 videos on the tiny screen.

The Tiny Arcade prices start at $60 for a DIY kit so that you can assemble the mini arcade cabinet, while a pre-assembled cabinet costs $75. There is also a premium 3D printed Tiny Arcade that costs $150. Tiny Arcade will begin shipping in April 2016.
