    Classic games all on HDMI capability. Love playing these old games especially getting the younger generation to see what we grew up with.

    Pretty much exactly what is advertised. It will bring you back to the glory days but don't expect to be blown away by any of the "new" features. I would recommend buying an extension cord for the controller unless you really like sitting 3ft from your tv.

    Best little game console around. It has all the best games from the 90's. Would've liked to have two controllers but its workable.

    This is a great thing to have that is extremely portable and can be played everywhere. It is a lot of fun to take to a friends house or road trips.

    Much better than the Chinese knock off I purchased prior. Has hdmi hook ups and incredibly lightweight yet has all the classics!

    I always enjoyed playing Nintendo when I was a kid! Wish it had a few more games like dunk hunt but loved the system! Glad I bought it

    This system is as great as the SNES classic (which I actually managed to get my hands on first). Great nostalgia. Highly recommended.

    The new platform for the Nes system is great. It is very easy to setup and use. For people who want to recall years ago this is perfect

    Love the old NES games all pre-loaded. Nice to be able to save multiple games. Only disappointment is the short cord on the controller.

    Glad Nintendo stepped up their game and brought more out for the masses. Do not buy from scalpers please. It's available so be patient.

    We got the old school Nintendo for our young boys to try to stay away from the more advanced systems and games while they’re still young. It had a decent variety of the old school games to introduce them to gaming in a safe way.

    Although i own a classic Nintendo i purchased this due to a great price. Gameplay was solid, (had to change TV settings to fix lag) colors vibrant and game selection was actually good. And best of all it looks GREAT on my 55' TV.

    This is a very fun and nostalgic throw back to the 80's. Very fun to play "new" games with the kids. Brings back sweet memories.

    Small and compact and built in games. Wonderful nostalgia. Only gripe is one controller but most of the games are 1 player anyway.

    Bought this game system for my father since he loves these old games. He enjoys playing games from his time. Wish the controller cords were longer so you didn’t have to sit 3 feet from the TV, but you can purchase cord estensions.
