I bought as a gift for someone I don't even remember. Person ho it was bought for never complained about it so I assume it was liked and worth the purchase.

Great games
Blast from the past
However it needs more
Who needs mega man when the legacy collection is on every system imaginable.
It's difficult to get the right to reproduce these old games yhough

Can't find a second remote

It's ok. I've had the unit for two months and can't find a second remote anywhere without paying a hefty price. Really disappointed in how Nintendo rolled this out. It's not really fun to play by yourself.

The one negative thing about it is that the controls are quite sluggish and delayed. It would also be great to have the option to download additional games. Overall it is a great product though.

It's great to be able to play all the old games I grew up playing, but the controller is not responsive making playing somewhat frustrating. I don't know that I'd buy this again.

Great awesome throw back to the childhood! Kinda... if you sit 18" from the tv. Yup the control cords are that long! What a joke!

Loved the old school system being revamped. Controls wire are unbelievably small and I basically have to stand close to my tv just to be able to play.

Classic games. Good if you grew up in the NES era, or just want to experience it. The controller is very short, so I would recommend getting an extension for it.

A decent little system, reminds me back in the 80’s, my friend had the original one. Just wish it had more games. A nice replica of the old version.

This is kinda neat. But the game selection isn’t all that great and the cord on the one controller is a foot long .

I was hoping to enjoy some throwback games.... but this counsel couldn’t hold my attention. Some hard core gamers would love it. It’s just not for me.

Great concept, but the levels are incredibly limited. Fun for someone who hasn't played the original game(s). Too easy for an experienced 80's gamer.

Gaming system is really slow. If you miss playing the Nintendo from the old days this will give you a little fun, but don’t expect too much from it.

It's fun but has a lot of games you will never play. It only comes with 1 remote with a crazy short cord. My kid digs it so it was worth it

Its certainly a nostalgic piece you want to have. You would play foe few days straight and then move on. A good collectible, but don't spend more than $60.

I had to put my TV on game mode. The controller was delayed but game mode helped. I like playing the classic games on the switch better.

This is nice, but for the price should come with wireless controllers. Otherwise you are buying extensions for the controllers.

Great classic games yet the remote control length is very short . I had to buy wireless remotes which can go in and out .
