    So much fun! Most of the best games. My only complaint is, I wish it could play the old cartridges.

    Im so happy when I able to purchase this console at best buy online. I cannot believe that I will have a chance to get this online despite of being sold out everywhere! I've been stalking this on online at my best buy apps for at least 3 months! It's a great console game, lots of memories and still fun to play!

    I was a little disappointed in this just because they only give you one controller which I knew when I bought it so that’s OK but the fact that the cable is so short and I had to purchase an extension cable was kind of a pain and an extra expense . Otherwise the games are what the games were back in the day you can’t beat them . Just wish they had a few more games on it .

    When they announced this console, I got super excited to be nostalgic and play old games. Once I got my hands on it, I was immediately brought back to my youth and I truly enjoyed the games. I was sad to see that it was only a temporary item for sale and they didn't have it set up to expand things later.

    I grew up with the original NES, and this thing has all of the cool games i used to love to play. I wish it had come with wireless controllers, because otherwise i have to site 3 feet in front of a 70" tv to play it. i know i can buy them aftermarket, but who wants to spend another $40 on this? Add wireless controllers and this is 5 starts all day long.

    The Classic returns

    The original was my first console and it's nice to have this version. Its a good reminder of how complex current games are now on new consoles. Personally, I would much rather pickup this and play a quick game then those on newer consoles. The newer consoles have so many cinematic scenes or just get started after an hour, when that may be all the time have to pick up a quick game. Plus if you have the roms, you can expand beyond the 30 games it comes if your a bit technical.

    I am very satisifed with this purchase. Being able to play the NES games brings back old memories. You cannot go wrong, even young people will definitely have a good time playing all "30 " games.

    From the minute I opened the box and plugged it in I felt like I was 11 years old all over again. Definitely worth having if you have children so they can see what you grew up playing. Only drawback is there were some games that Nintendo should have added in lieu of some on the console.
