About Us
Welcome to the Lab
We’re not here to be a “gaming brand.”
We’re here to bring gaming back to life.
GameLab wasn’t born in a boardroom.
It started late one night, staring at a shelf full of old games, the kind you can’t buy anymore, the kind no one makes anymore, the kind that meant something.
We weren’t looking to build a company.
We were trying to get that feeling back.
You know the one.
When the outside world disappeared and all that mattered was clearing one more level.
When your battery light was blinking red but you had to catch that Zapdos.
When four mates crowded around a tiny screen, shouting insults and sharing snacks, because that’s what gaming was.
We missed it, and we knew others did too.
Then gaming changed.
It became slower.
More corporate.
Cutscenes longer than gameplay.
DLCs and subscriptions where discovery used to be.
We didn’t just feel left behind, we felt like real gaming had been buried.
So we dug it back up.
GameLab was built from frustration, and love.
Frustration at what gaming had become.
Love for what it used to be.
We started building the device we wished existed. Then our mates wanted one. Then strangers.
Then it snowballed, because clearly, we weren’t the only ones who wanted it back.
We didn’t want a fake retro lookalike.
We wanted something dangerous, something that brought the chaos, the fun, the challenge, the randomness.
No fluff. No filler. No “mobile gaming experience.”
So we built GameLab.
One pocket-sized vault with over 15,000 real games.
The ones that shaped us.
The ones that pissed us off.
The ones that made us who we are.
No downloads. No loading. No waiting.
Just grab it. Power on. Play.
GameLab isn’t a product.
It’s a rebellion.
It’s a memory trigger.
It’s a f*ck you to bloated franchises and pay-to-play formulas.
And a reminder that sometimes, the most powerful console… fits in your pocket.
If you’ve ever felt it... that craving to go back,
that instinct to escape the “next-gen” nonsense
and return to where it all actually started... Then you’re not just a customer.
You’re one of us.
Welcome to the Lab.
Power On. 🎮
