画面が回る!タイトルが増やせる!TAITOから〝テーブルに置けるゲームセンター〟「EGRETⅡ mini」発表!
Product

The Nintendo Classic Mini series, Mega Drive Mini, PC Engine mini, and other mini game consoles packed with nostalgic games are all popular.
Not only can they play many classic titles, but they are also popular because of their cute design, which looks like a compact version of a game console.
Many mini game consoles can be played by outputting video and audio to a TV or monitor, but some, such as SNK's "NEOGEO mini" and Sega's "Astro City mini," have displays and speakers built into the console and can be played by themselves as long as they are powered by a power source. These are also very popular. It's nice to have a game arcade cabinet in your home, isn't it?
A new product is now available in the miniature game machine category!
TAITO has announced the "EGRET II mini," a game arcade machine that can be placed on a table!

Unique design with a screen that rotates in accordance with the title

The " EGRET II mini" is a miniature version of TAITO's " EGRET II " game console.
It is equipped with a display and speakers, and can play games by itself by supplying power, or can be enjoyed on a large screen by outputting video and audio to a TV or monitor via HDMI.
So far, it is almost the same as other products, but "EGRET II mini" has its own unique feature!
The screen can be rotated to match the game title you are playing!

From the video, it appears that you can easily rotate the screen by pushing in on the screen part and it will pop up.
A revolutionary idea that allows you to play a game title in portrait mode in full screen without having to cut off both sides of the screen to project it in landscape mode!
There are 40 titles built into the unit, and the first 15 titles are available in the first release, along with the year of first release and screen orientation!

SNK's "NEOGEO Arcade Stick PRO" also allows users to add unlocked game titles, but basically, mini game consoles have fixed game titles.
If you can add games to the SD card, you can have a lot more fun!
The " Eglet2 Mini Paddle & Trackball Game Expansion Set," which will be released at the same time, comes with an SD card and adds 10 games that are played using the paddle and trackball on the console.
