About Us
Hi! Founded in 2019 by ME, Paul, a child of the 80s, Electro Arcade was born from a lifelong passion for retro gaming.
My gaming journey began with the classics – Commodore 64, Amiga, GameBoy, SNES, 386, and PS1. I can still vividly recall those BMX rides to the local milkbar and fish and chip shops, eager to play arcade favorites like Xevious, Pooyan, Bubble Bobble, 1941, Galaga, Spy Hunter, Moon Patrol, Elevator Action, and Kung-Fu Master. While Rally X doesn’t seem to get mentioned often I have fond memories playing it on the Tabletop with mission brown wood grain sides while eating my 1 & 2cents lollies!
As I grew older, my gaming adventures expanded to TimeZone, where I dove into the worlds of Out Run, Daytona, Suzuka 8 Hours, After Burner, and Ridge Racer. Who could forget the intense battles in Street Fighter or the jaw-dropping fatalities that made Mortal Kombat so iconic? I could go on, but needless to say some fond memories there.
These nostalgic experiences, from the early 8-bit era through the arcade golden age, fueled my dream of revisiting these games and bringing the arcade home, unknowingly planting the seed for what would become Electro Arcade.
At Electro Arcade, we’re driven by innovation and a desire to share the joy of retro gaming and related nostalgic products with those who lived it and those who thought they missed it!

Founder, Electro Arcade
Electro Arcade
Electro Arcade is an Australian registered business trading out of Melbourne, Victoria, just a few minutes drive from Chadstone shopping centre, Monash freeway, and Princess highway.
We predominantly sell online via our website, eBay, Facebook, and other channels. Our products and service reach far and we are grateful to serve a global customer base.
We manufacture, import, and sell quality niche consumer electronics and accessories, usually with a nostalgic twist.
Our Vision
The evolution of in-home entertainment has seen the presence of arcade parlors, cinemas and other entertainment venues shrink. Arcade machines from shops have literally vanished.
The evolution of technology and software has enabled a new breed of affordable products be it projectors, gaming consoles, or other in-home entertainment. Our aim is to provide access to greater and more convenient in-home or on the move entertainment.
Quality and Service
We’re a local Aussie business with a long history in technology, gaming and innovation. We strive to deliver quality with passion be it customer service, product or support.
Customer satisfaction is the key to our success and we won’t sell something we wouldn’t use ourselves.
With a passion for quality and innovation, the majority of our products are sourced directly from overseas manufacturers and unless specifically stated warehoused and shipped from our Australian HQ. We won’t settle for average and in most cases evolve and improve the products we source.
What can we do for you ?
Our products undergo rigorous testing and personal use. We’re always innovating and looking for ways to enhance their appeal, usability, and reliability. We never resell unfamiliar items and our rule is simple: if we wouldn’t buy it ourselves, we won’t offer it to you. This hands-on approach ensures that every product we sell meets our higher standards of quality and performance.
We do not drop ship – products listed on our website are stocked in our Melbourne HQ. In most cases we ship within 48hrs using quick shipping options. Customers often receive items within 1-3 days.
Check out our reviews. Our customers love the sales, product, and support we offer.
Sell and forget is definitely not our motto. We source reliable products and support what we sell. While we might not always have the answer, We’ve tested enough units to know their nuances and always go out of our way to help our customers.
