|style="text-align:center;"|A repackaging of the Atari 8-bit computer line, marketed as a game console. Notable for having possibly the worst physical design ever. It has preliminary support in MAME, as does the 65XE computer it's based on. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2gF5wWns0E Overview] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IVK3ukQmMA CGR Review]

|style="text-align:center;"|Hybrid clone of both the [[SG-1000]] and [[ColecoVision]]. Sold by Telegames as the Telegames Personal Arcade, allegedly with permission from Coleco themselves. The console's build quality leaves a lot to be desired, not to mention that games for the aforementioned platforms can be played on most ColecoVision emulators anyway.

|style="text-align:center;"|A hybrid NES/Famicom arcade box distributed to hotels in Japan. The hotel would set the amount of time you could play on one token, and choose the games available. You can see it in action in season 18 of [http://www.gamingcx.com/ Game Center CX]. There was also the Super Famicom Box, for playing SNES. No known emulators, but the Super Famicom Box ''may'' work in MAME, as its BIOS is available. |-|style="text-align:center;"|Philips Videopac + G7400|style="text-align:center;"|[http://www.progettoemma.net/mess/system.php?machine=g7400 Imperfect]|style="text-align:center;"||style="text-align:center;"|
