Remember when we all wanted that famous Nintendo and all of those great games for Christmas? Well, like the main said, "I'm back." Nintendo has brought 30 of their best back in a smaller version with all the games built in. Even come with a wired controller. My only complaint. The cord is much to short. I bought two of the wireless controllers and it is great. They were always sold out and hard to find. There here and fun for everyone.

8-bit gaming has never looked better! I really love that the most popular games of yesteryear are available in this Nintendo Classic collection.
The only flaw to this game console is that the cord on the remote control is extremely short. It’s about 3 feet long, which is too short for comfort. It’s an easy fix since you can buy cord extensions or a bluetooth controller, but it’s an extra purchase that could’ve been avoided.

So, I’m going to say I’m not too much of a fan of much of the games. Mostly because I grew up on the SNES and hardly know any of the games on here. It’s great though if you did grow up on these games. My Mom loves pac-man, and galaga. She’s putting more use to this than I am. For me, it’s more of a collectors item. Glad I was able to pick this up though. If you’re a fan of the old games from the 80’s, this would be great for you!

Worth it if you can find it at retail price, definitely not worth the absurd inflated prices scalpers are asking. This product should be getting restocked next year, so just wait until then.

As everyone knows this is a must buy for anyone that owned one as a kid. It is easy to modify and add games if wanted. Don’t waste your time with included controllers order the 8bitdo wireless right away. I bought the extension cables for the included controllers it was a waste of money had cords laying out everywhere and nowadays when everything is wireless it just looks lame to do so.

What a great value! It's worth a buy. My only piece of advice is purchase cord extensions for the controllers. Nintendo thinks people sit a foot in front of their televisions.

Nintendo did a good job with the classic, great selection of games that will leave you nostalgic. The only gripe I have is with the length of the controllers. Overall good purchase!

I may be a little biased (probably alot) but I cannot stress this enough, I love this little thing (I even bought a second one for my father), it brings back so many good memories and for the amount of games I definitely consider it a must buy if you are into retro games or want the feeling of nostalgia. Only downside is it doesn't come with a second controller and that would have been very much appreciated.

Its a flashback to my childhood with the stand up machines. It has a lot of good pretty installed games. The only downside is the length or lack of length of the controller cord.

I love the old school games. I also love the idea that they made the unit very small and easy to travel with.
