What is the Tiny Arcade?

We’re old-school arcade lovers here – there is nothing quite like the experience of playing a game on an arcade cabinet. We’ve created Tiny Arcade to let you experience that feeling anywhere by shrinking an arcade cabinet to just a few inches tall.

The Tiny Arcade DIY Kit lets you experience many retro-type games, which can be downloaded completely free from our site or any number of others that create games for the Tiny Arcade. You can also play videos on the Tiny Arcade at 30 FPS with audio.

The Tiny Arcade DIY Kit is based around TinyCircuits, a modular Arduino-compatible platform the size of a quarter that stacks together like electronic LEGOs. It has an analog joystick and two push buttons for playing the games, a built-in speaker for playing audio, a Lithium battery, a built-in USB for charging (and reprogramming), and a microSD expansion slot.

Even though the Tiny Arcade is built around the Arduino platform, don’t worry if you’re not a programmer. There is no need to download any special software or do any soldering with it; you can use it without any special knowledge.
