    Appearance wise, the case is a nice rendition of the OG. Nice list of original vintage games. Plays exactly like they did way back!

    tl:dr; - get a wireless controller or at least an extension cable! the controller cable length is too short when you are typically playing on a 40-60" tv and need to be back 6-8ft. take advantage of the savestate option by pressing start+select at the same time

    I love this little system!! My husband and I really enjoy playing the classic games. I would have given it five stars, but within the first couple days we noticed that it would start to get a little glitchy after playing it for a half hour or so.

    I got this on a whim, to get nostalgic with my sister, and show my Xbox 1 obsessed nephews about where it started. The game listing is alright, but only 1 controller? And a short cord? Not everyone is gonna sit a ft away from the console.

    Nice little unit for retro games. Make sure you get the extra controller and extension cables because the ones that come with it are short.
