Customers recognize the MClassic Plug and Play Graphics Enhancer for its ability to noticeably improve image quality, especially when upscaling retro games. They appreciate its compatibility with various consoles, including the Switch, and its ease of use. While some customers find the price a bit high, many agree that the difference it makes in graphics is worth it.
There are a few switch games I really like but have a hard time playing on my computer monitor because of the low resolution. The pixels stick out badly and some things are messy are hard to look at. The mClassic makes everything much better! By using the mClassic on my switch, everything looks much smoother and even scales up from 1080p to 1440p! This has been a game changer and makes playing the switch on my computer monitor much more fun. Not to mention the results are even more dramatic for old games. I mostly use it for ps1, ps2, ps3, and psp using the TV adapter. The ps3 gets more crisp and goes up to hdmi. The psp was hardly even playable before and now it looks great! Thank you Marseille for developing such an awesome product.

First off: the product does exactly what it says it does and is super easy to use Second: I've only used it on my Switch so far, but will update when my GameCube adapter comes in and I can use it there too. I was pretty impressed with this. While many Nintendo 1st party titles already come out at 1080p, the occasional that doesn't, and other 3rd party games really benefit from the jump from ≤720p. Split screen multiplayer games massively benefit from the sharper image too. The pictures show the difference for a few titles (first with mClassic off, second with it on; the images are zoomed in so you get a better sense of what they would look like on a TV screen). I would give this a 4.5 star if the option was there, but I rounded up because I can't really call it out for any flaws. This isn't an essential purchase, and it's one that you can sometimes forget you're using after a while until you see what it looks like on switches/footage where it isn't present (though I don't think this will be the case once I try this on the GameCube). That all said, I have no regrets buying this to give my Switch the premium treatment.

I first grabbed this device when it was on kickstarter and I wasn't disappointed. When I first used it, I was impressed by how well the mclassic actually cleaned up and even made my games more vibrant. This is especially apparent in Monster Hunter and Super Smash Bros. It's quite an amazing little processor and I don't get any type of latency at all using it. It's made my screenshots and recordings a lot better looking and cleaner. I highly recommend it. DISCLAIMER: This device only increases resolution and smooths out anti-aliasing. It does NOT improve framerates or performance. It is an image quality upscaler only. Use it on your Switch, use it on your Xbox Series S, use it on your retro consoles, they'll all look great!
