Is it compatible with my setup?

Works on any LED, OLED, 4K TV or projector up to 100 inches — requires a PC to run the games (Windows or Linux). If you have a flat screen and a PC, you're ready to play.

What's included?

One RetroTrigger pistol, four IR sensors, a USB receiver, rechargeable batteries, and a charging cable — everything you need to start playing straight out of the box.

Is it hard to setup?

Clip the four sensors to your screen, plug in the USB receiver, and calibrate in 30 seconds. Most people are shooting within 2 minutes.

Does it have a foot pedal?

On the RetroPistol, the "crouch" pedal is built right into the controller as a dedicated button. Press it to come out of cover and fire, release to duck back down. Exact same gameplay — just no pedal to trip over. It's all in your hand.

    “Thought it’d feel cheap honestly but the recoil feedback and aiming are actually sick. Took me straight back to arcade shooters as a kid.”

    • "Finally, a light gun that actually works"

      Set it up on my 50" TV in under 20 minutes. The IR tracking is spot on and the trigger feels so satisfying. Haven't put it down since it arrived.

      Marcus T., verified buyer

    • "My living room is now an arcade"

      Pulled out Time Crisis on a Friday night and had the whole family taking turns. Two pistol mode is a game changer. This thing is built for a good time.

      Jamie R., verified buyer

    • "Worth every penny"

      Was on the fence about the bundle but so glad I went for it. 15,000 games is not a joke — there's titles on here I haven't seen since childhood. Absolutely worth it.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Do games come with it, or just the controller?

      Grab a Bundle version and you'll get our 1TB Retro Stick USB Card packed with 600+ classic arcade titles ready to go. Opt for the standalone pistol and you'll receive the controller, rechargeable batteries and sensors only.

      Can I add my own games?

      Yes! We provide 600+ retro games on a 1TB hardrive with our Retro Stick , which also allows you to download and add your own favorite retro games to play!

      How does it connect — PC or TV?

      You'll need a Windows/Linux PC or Raspberry Pi to run it. Mount the sensors on your TV or projector, slot in the 1TB game card, and you're good to go. Keep in mind — this isn't a plug-and-play console, it requires a computer to operate.

      Is it compatible with PS5, Xbox, or Steam Deck?

      No. Our gun only works with Windows, Linux and Android OS. While it works perfectly on Steam Deck (in Desktop Mode), it is not compatible with PS5 or Xbox as these consoles do not support the external lightgun drivers required for our system.

      Will it work on a modern flatscreen or projector?

      100% yes. Our IR-based tech leaves old CRT limitations behind — it's fully compatible with LED, OLED, 4K displays, and projectors up to 150 inches. Screen size is no issue.

      How does the cover system work if there's no foot pedal?

      Classic light-gun games like Time Crisis use a "cover" mechanic — you duck behind cover to reload and stay safe, then pop out to shoot. In the arcade, that was a foot pedal. On the RetroPistol, that pedal is built right into the controller as a dedicated button. Press it to come out of cover and fire, release to duck back down. Exact same gameplay — just no pedal to trip over. It's all in your hand.

      Can two players go head-to-head?

      Definitely. The system supports up to 4 players at once! — just choose the 2 Players Set and you'll get two independently functioning pistols that work simultaneously on the same screen.

      Do you ship internationally?

      We ship to virtually anywhere in the world using tracked couriers. Expect delivery within 6–15 business days based on your location, and you'll get a tracking number the moment your order leaves our warehouse.
