The Power Kracker's box.
The Power Kracker (or Power Blaster) is a pirated NES-On-A-Chip console that was made to look like the Xbox 360 controller. It is the successor to the Power Player Super Joy III. It is most likely manufactured by Sinango and is essentialy a redesigned Power Player Super Joy III. The Power Kracker has been reported a common famiclone to find at Swap Meets/Flea Markets.
Overview
First appearing around 2011, the Power Kracker appears to include two controllers and a light gun (referred to as the Power Gun). Like many consoles with build in games, the Power Kracker claims to have a large number of games (76,000 games, reportable) but really comes with a much smaller range repeated.
Controllers
The controller features 4 button layout with two extra buttons located near. It also has a reset button, a start button, and a power button along with a d-pad and an analogue stick. The second controller is simpler, but smaller and without the power, reset and start buttons or the analogue stick.
Box
The front of the box shows an explosion, the current year of release, and the controllers it includes. The front also claims the console to be "The Greatest Game machine IN the planet!". The back of the box shows 3D graphics and screenshots taken from other games and an uncredited review claiming "The most impressive TV Game Machine made yet". It also shows the button layout for the main console controller. On the back of the box, it has the "Super joystick" logo (The same one found on the back of the box of the Power Player Super Joy III). It also has an invalid age rating on the choking hazard sticker (12+up) when most other products with a choking hazard say 3 and up.
