I wasnt able to find one of these during the 1st launch, so when I saw them at Christmas time, I didn’t hesitate. This unit brings back great memories of my teenage years of spending hours in front of the TV playing game.

Only negatives the wire for the controller is too short/there is one. The other is some of the games I wish offered had some of their updated graphics as options (super Mario brothers 3 with it's gba skin would have been nice). The original contra added. There are a few other games I would like to have seen on this but I can see licesene issue being the main cause.

This is a great little system with 30 classic NES games.
Pros:
Nostalgic
Classic controller
30 great games pre-installed
HDMI port
Cons:
Short controller wire
Can't find official second controller anywhere in store (seriously Nintendo?)
Only 30 games, could've easily added more
For a $60 pricetag, its worth it. Get it if you can find it (once again, seriously Nintendo?).

Got this for my husband for his birthday. Works as it should and is like a trip down memory lane. Lots of fun playing with our grown kids too. I also bought an extra controller. Wish they would include two in the set.

The product itself is fantastic. I’ve waited since Christmas for one. That being said, not sure the nostalgia was worth $60. The controller cord is laughable. I have to sit 12 inches from the screen. Only a few games I actually want to play. If you could get more games it would might be worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The mini NES works flawlessly and leaves me extremely happy. Looks great, plays just like I remember, I just wish I could have gotten it sooner (re-stocks took FOREVER) and I still can't find an OEM 2nd controller. One of these days I hope.....

A great throwback to the GOAT system, just wish they put more games on the system as I know they have the capabilities. Hopefully they release an update of some sort to add more games, but for now these will keep me busy.

I already had a Super NES classic edition which I purchased in 2017, but I think I prefer the NES classic which really took me back to some unforgettable childhood memories...not knocking the Super NES in anyway though.

The console is so much smaller than I was expecting. And so much fun. No need to blow into any cartridges to get the games to work. Didn’t need to use the included power supply, I’m powering it off my TV’s USB ports.

Although there is more than a few very good games on here, I'm not impressed with the game selection, they dropped the ball over and over again on that front.
The system works great if you got game mode set on your TV.
The only real problem with this is the missing 2nd player controller. Nintendo can make a good product, they just can't produce it very well
