MG Portable Android Wi-Fi Game System
Product Description
A Portable Gaming System for Families - Kids Will Love, Parents Will Appreciate! The MG is an ultra-sleek, mobile gaming platform with a big 4" inch touch-screen that will connect you to the massive world of free Android games via Wi-Fi. MG is a great gift for kids who love video games. MG comes pre-loaded with great games from EA and Com2Us, including Need for Speed, NBA Jam, Tiny Farm and Slice It. The MG is light and features ergonomically designed rounded ends, perfect for two thumb, touch-screen gaming. MG is for those who want their own portable, pocketable device to play games on; but without the big expense of packaged video games or the monthly data plans that come with smartphones. The MG includes a proprietary notification function called "Remote Trust". The feature allows parents to view their kid's activity (downloads, what apps are used, and even time spent on the MG device) from a distance. Add your email to the system at set-up and then you can receive updates on your computer or smartphone about your child's MG activity. MG has partnered with SpendSmart(TM) Prepaid MasterCard(R) - to provide a way for parents to control spending. This feature will allow parents to set up a reloadable debit account for their teens and then create "game allowances" that the teen can use for micro-transactions. No more putting your credit card at risk. No more being bothered for every $.99 purchase. (SpendSmart is only available in the US market).

Loving this portable Game System!
By MissJess
Moms and Dads it's time to get our freedom back! That is the freedom of having your smartphone back in your own hands where it belongs!The MG Game System is a totally awesome NEW portable game system that runs off of the Google Play via Wi-Fi, which means your child has access to thousands of FREE apps and allows your children the freedom to download the apps they want with a prepaid allowance that their parents set.It's super slim so your child will have no problem toting it around in their pocket just like a smart phone. It has a sleek design so your child will want to pull it out in front of their friends and show it off. But best of all? Us parents get our devices back! Woohoo!With the $149.99 price tag it's totally affordable considering how much I paid for my iPhone. I am purchasing a second unit because my children and I loved the first one so much!This portable game system is definitely a MUST BUY for older children, tweens and teens!

Cool gift for the kiddos
By RagingMom
Just got this in the mail a couple of days ago and wanted to try it out before I put it under the tree for my son.First, the packaging was awesome and the experience of opening it will be great on Christmas morning.Second, the start up was easy. I wanted to make sure it was totally set up for my son because he's going to be anxious to get going on the games. It was only a few steps and I set it up with a Google account.Third, I'm really impressed with the spending card. My son is 9 and while he's been good about asking before using my credit card for games on my iPhone, I like that he'll have his own card that I can pre-load and have him learn how to think before buying his games. I have a feeling he'll be choosier about now that he's spending his own money :)The only downside is that since this is run on wifi, some games won't work unless without a connection. Other than that, the MG feels sturdy without being hulking or heavy. The screen says it is made of gorilla glass so I'm hoping it withstands the abuse my son will give it. It feels stronger than my iPhone though and he's put that thing through tough times!

By Tmyers
I bought five of these for my kids for Christmas and originally it did not work well (see first review below). I sent them back for a refund. I will say that one of the best things about MG is the customer service team. I was contacted almost immediately and informed there was a fix in place that solved the freezing issues. I was offered a chance to try the MG again and sent a complimentary MG. My kids played on it non-stop for hours and NO FREEZING at all! The fix worked great... this is definitely a wonderful game for kids. Thank you MG team for the update and the chance to test it out.******I bought five of these for my kids for Christmas. I was excited when I opened them to set them up prior to Christmas - even downloaded a couple of Android games. Set up Google accounts, etc. and repackaged. Kids thought I was the best - youngest even called it her "phone". Shortly thereafter, the units started to freeze and shutoff randomly. You'd touch the screen and a totally different app would open. I did the pinch multiple times, but who wants to wait between playing over and over again to restart the unit! Very disappointing - shipping them back and now need to figure out what to get them as a replacement. smh
