    As an adult as most of us have already seen, we buy this because of the old memories we had playing. Welllll just so you know it gets boring reallllly fast and you realize you wasted your money when you can get the same stuff on your cell phone. But still cool to have :)

    This game console brought back so many fun memories. It is a little difficult to pay at first bc I'm used to playing more advanced games, but in no time, I was whizzing through it and even remembered some of the hidden passages after a few rounds. Love Mario always & forever!

    Nintendo did a great job bring back the old NES games. I have been playing Zelda and it is just like the old days. Funny thing is that it has a slight lag when there are a lot of characters on the screen at one time, JUST like back with the old NES. No issues or bugs at all.

    Best Buy saved me as I found out the NES was released on the morning of. I ran to Best Buy. They handled the whole demand part so well with ticketed system based on first come first serve! I only wish they had extra controllers in stock! But hey classic NES is in stock and I was 1/30 so fortunate!

    Games play great, but the controller's cord is way too short. Expect to spend another $10 on an extension cable.

    The nes classic is ok. Wish it had more variety of games and a longer cord for the controller.

    This system has brought back so many memories! I haven’t played these games in at least 30 years. I’m amazed at how much came back to me. The entire family has enjoyed playing. We bought our grown children systems for Christmas so they and our grandchildren can play.

    It's a great blast into the past to get to play these games again, to remember the fun of the older games. It's awesome to be able to save your games now. That was one of the best parts of this game system. My 5 year old is even getting in to the older games with me and my wife, he loves them.

    I love that I bought this! My husband didn’t think our children would play it, cause of course they’re into newer game systems, I will happily say he was wrong! This system is loved by my oldest down to my youngest! I will finally play a video game with them too!

    I was lucky to get a unit on line the day they went on sale. What fun to play the classic games, and at a great price point, with no mark up by a third party seller. The graphics look great considering what the games are. I only wish the unit came with a second controller.
