Getting 6-year olds into Teh Classics

[QAOP Spaceman]

In my topsy-turvy life I've ended up living with 6-year-old Genevieve a few days a week, and we've had great fun playing Ms Pacman and Chicken Shift on Mame on my laptop, though she did disapprove of using QAOP for the directionals

Basically her hands are too wee for a keyboard, so her dad was considering getting this:
 
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pac-Man-Connect-Play-Classic-Games/dp/B0104G9K4Q/ref=dp_ob_title_toy

Has anyone here tried one of these? It's Namco / Bandai, it looks half decent.


Or are there any other plug and play arcade thingies that literally a 6-year/old can use unsupervised?

Thank you kindly

My 6 year old plays dk on switch, pac man on mame on a laptop, old console games on original hardware and a crt, and I figured it was easier to just teach him how to use the computer and the systems.

I figured if he couldn’t use mame he’d never be able to pass L4 vator, so didn’t bother trying to make it too easy.
