The “Retro Arcade” kits by Elecfreaks offer a unique experience that merges classic gaming and technological education through the Microsoft MakeCode platform. The “Retro Microsoft MakeCode Arcade for Education” model features a high-resolution screen and a desktop console format adapted for classrooms, where students can not only play but also design their own video games using block-based programming, selecting characters, scenarios, and storylines while exploring the logic of integrated sensors and developing creativity in an intuitive environment. Its ergonomic design—inspired by classic controllers—is optimized for extended sessions, and its compatibility with LEGO bricks adds extra appeal for educational projects.

The micro:bit Retro Programming Arcade” expands this experience in a portable and modular format. This kit is an expansion board equipped with a 160 × 128 pixel TFT screen, D-pad, A/B buttons, and a reset button, specifically designed for micro:bit. It allows users to download and play games created online via MakeCode Arcade and can operate either as a standalone console or as a remote controller in robotic projects. Its acrylic case, carefully screen-printed, and its ergonomic design offer both an attractive visual experience and comfortable use during long gaming or development sessions.

In both cases, Elecfreaks includes high-value educational resources: interactive tutorials, guided projects, and a dedicated wiki, making it easier to teach key concepts such as conditional logic, loops, sensor interaction, and interface design. Additionally, the ability to switch between visual and text-based programming (JavaScript or Python) enables a smooth transition from beginner to advanced programming levels. These tools make the “Retro Arcade” a powerful resource for STEM subjects and robotics labs, offering a versatile learning platform that blends fun, creativity, and technology, both in the classroom and in maker environments.
