The My Arcade Retro Champ was a pleasant surprise for a convention so focused on the latest in technology. This retro console, slated to launch later this year in June for $79.99, is a new solution for those looking to play their old NES cartridges on the go while throwing in some modern features such as 35-hour battery life and HDMI output.

What caught my eye with the Retro Champ console are how many extra features they’ve put into the portable console to do more than just play an NES cart on-the-go. Among the extra features are a dual-slot at the bottom to support playing Famicom cartridges just in case you happen to have an import stash of retro carts at home, wireless connectivity for branded My Arcade wireless controllers (that don’t come in the standard package) and a side compartment containing a small cleaning kit in case the contacts on that vintage copy of Clash! at Demonhead got flakey and dirty in transport. And, of course, it does feature an HDMI output if you’re looking to continue playing once you get back to the hotel and want to unwind before another business meeting.
