    Bought this to use while traveling for work. Works great at home with good broadband, not so great when in a hotel with questionable internet…. Would only recommend if you know you’ll have good internet.

    It works very well, no lag, very efficient and is useful for annoyingly long trips away from my console.

    I purchased this as a birthday gift, but they cannot use it since none of the games they play are compatible with it. They wanted to return it, but I only get 14-days to return and I purchased this more than 14-days before their birthday. So, now they’re stuck with something they cannot use and I cannot return. Bummer.
