What do you guys think?

As a tech novice I thought I'd ask more knowledgeable people if this is a good deal

It would depend on whether you wanted something nice to look at or just the functionality of being able to play old school arcade games?

 

If it's the latter I'd suggest looking into investing in a Raspberry Pi and RetroPie over a dedicated arcade machine such as the one you linked, and then just stick it in a spare HDMI port on your TV and enjoy the nostalgia.

For Nostalgia I would rather do this or go get a Pacman, defender, asteroids, Galaxians, Phoenix  or whatever you fancy for the same money.

Spur of the moment impulse "want" has subsided.

Dug out my old Chinese knock off PsP console and fed my retro gaming cravings.

Small play anywhere gizmo was cheap as chips.
