    I don't get the hype for this item. It's really nothing special and I think people only want it because supply is scarce. The game selection is bad and the little thing feels cheap. As an owner of the original NES, I have no need for this. The controller on this is worthless.

    The games programmed in it are knock offs of the real games we played when we were young. I took it back for refund.

    Glorified paper weight at best. Bought it and wasn't happy. Does a great job at collecting dust and wasting time.

    Classic NES is back!

    Don't listen to all the negative reviews on here. People complaining about it's not enough games, it needs wireless controllers, the wires are too short....BLAH BLAH BLAH. I mean honestly people this whole thing costs just $60. The purpose of this retro console is to bring back memories of the original NES system and enjoyment of playing the games on it. It's not meant to have technology upgrades. If you've ever owned the original NES system then you know what I'm talking about. ORIGINAL pure gaming experience.
