The system plays great but the cords need to be longer for the controllers or the hdmi cable. Also Nintendo could have picked a few better games then some of the games that came loaded on the system.

Met my expectations and fun product to play! It quickly loads all the games, and allows you to play immediately. Great fun value for the money.

Love this retro gaming! Finally, feel like I'm back to 8 years old in front of the old CRT playing the classics.

This is the most awesome thing if you grew up in the 80’s. The sights and sounds are exactly the same and the feel of the controller is too!

Absolutely love this. However, I do wish it came with more games and extra controllers. However it is a must have for any house.

My husband got this for Christmas and he has had so much fun playing it. He has been enjoying reliving the games from his childhood and I enjoy watching him light up!
Would be nice if it came with more than one controller. We bought an extra.

The closest Best Buy had only five consoles and I was lucky enough to purchase one. I am a loyal fan of Nintendo and this is definitely a collector's item.

Not bad price to get to see DK, DKJr, Pac Man, Galaga, and Techmo again. As everyone says why is it such a short cord OR not wireless. Difficult to do the classics on controller instead of joystick.

Brings me back to my childhood! Would love if it came with two controllers as opposed to just one, but other than that, I cannot complain!

Got the NES Classic as a way to relive some of the classics and it does exactly as promised. Fun to play these old time games on this device.

Love playing these games I use to play before my NES broke. Plays great and worth the $60 but the controller cords are short and had to buy the extensions.

Nostalgic value

The value here is purely nostalgic, mainly due to Super Mario Brothers, Pacman and a few other games. I wish we could add a few more (e.g. TMNT), that would make it perfect. But you definitely need to buy the extension cords for the controllers.

If you’re an 80s/90s kid this will bring back great memories; but, it is missing some great games IMO. I would have liked more games especially since you could fit all of them on a small footprint ssd inside the system. It’s fun, but kind of pricey.

The emulation is phenomenal, even if the selection of games is limited. It is unfortunate that the console doesn't support any method for expanding the library. Additionally, the controller has an incredibly short cable, so you'll have to invest in an extension cord.

Great remake of the classic. The graphics are the same. Don’t expect up to date technology. It look the exact way it did when you were little.
