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’ve only played a few games so far but enjoyed them. It’s small and light enough to travel with me.

It's kind of fun to play the games I played as a kid with my kids now. I only wish it had Duck Hunt.

This Nintendo system is great to bring back old memories. The only problem is that there is some lag when playing it on a newer 4k tv. We had to set this up with an older TV so that we could actually enjoy playing. Also, the cords for the controllers are crazy short and you definitely have to buy extensions. They should have included two controllers as well.

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.

We love this. Recommend getting wireless controllers because the cords are short and have a slight delay.

Great system to go back in time where games were challenging, yet simple. Very happy that Nintendo decided to start selling these systems again especially since they were only available from scalpers that were charging $200 or more. The only downside is the length of the controller cord which a lot of people have mentioned and the fact that it only comes with one and getting a second actual Nintendo controller is in very limited supply.

I wanted this game for me( i am 40) i dont care for the newer games. So when I seen this I was very excited. I keep it on my tv and I play on my off days. It makes me smile thinking of when I was a kid playing with my friends after school. I enjoy it

The games are fun to play but the controller needs a longer cord and it should come with 2 controllers.

This is a great little system for those with nostalgia!
It was nice to revisit thr games that I adored so much growing up but to be honest these games just can't hold my attention anymore!
Third party controllers are absolute garbage!

Has a few popular games and a few not-so-popular. Wish it had an option to load more games on it, but I don't guess it does. The small size and HDMI connectivity makes it nice for taking it on the go. Only comes with one controller, so you need another one for 2 player games.

Minus the ridiculously short controller cord, there is enough in this little package for those short gaming sessions.

My son and I have been waiting for this, and he is a bit of a techie so he has figured out how you can watch more games than this comes with, and you can use some of the old retro controllers also, this makes it even more fun to use the older games on the new TV's and they look great... Lots of fun...!
