no edit summary
The Arcadia console is small (about the size of an Atari 2600 jr.), and its controllers, which have [[Intellivision]]-like keypads, a fire button on each side, and thin, short, screw-in joysticks, are hard-wired into the system. Most of the games came with plastic keypad overlays. The console’s diminutive size, combined with its 12-volt power supply, make it semi-portable as it can be plugged into various 12V batteries/battery packs.
===Variations===
Over 30 Arcadia clones exist due to licensing all over the world.

===Games===
