    Waited a long time to get this. It was defiantly worth it. All of the memories came rushing back to when my mom bought me the original. Great games preloaded but only comes with one controller and the cord is short. Love it!!!

    Love this console. My only complaint is it didn't come with a second controller and the court is very short but they do sell extension cords and additional controllers for practically nothing. I definitely recommend to a friend

    Nice to relive the classics we played in the 80's and now I get to share it with my kids. Cute little machine and the price is just right for the number of games it had packed in. Hard to find the extra controller but there are decent 3rd party options.

    Great to finally have this! Has been sold out for too long. Said they now don't have the controller that matches the set, that is sad. Happy with the set though and reminds me of childhood games. Like Nintendo and happy for the set.

    What a great way to revisit old classics. The unit is really small, so it'll fit anywhere. Use this to help introduce the classics to your kids. Controllers are same size as when they came out with the original units in the 80s.

    Our family has had a great time playing these games. My husband and I have enjoyed teaching our kids the games we grew up on. We originally accidentally bought the cheaper version. We upgraded to this unit which is much better.

    Brought back so many memories when playing this again. The controller cord could be a little longer, but other than that, it looks great and plays well. Love the retro look on my tv stand!

    This is a great product for those of us who lived the gaming dream in the late '80s-early '90s. Some of the better first-party games are represented here along with a few of the better third-party games and, alas, a lot of filler. It's a worthwhile purchase, but you've been there and done that and, if you're like me, you've been there and done that a couple thousand times.

    This is a great answer to the original Nintendo system. No more cartridges with issues since everything is built right into this much smaller package. A great way to reminisce and enjoy the games from my childhood all over again.

    Nice system, just like the original. Remotes are very similar to the original as well. The cords are VERY short is the only problem. I purchased wireless controllers, but they are laggy and cause you to perform terribly in games and miss jumps etc. Cord extensions might be the way to go instead of wireless.

    Love Nintendo and what it has done! You have a mini game system that has 30 of the classics loaded on it. Only downfall is hard to find at retail price and the controller cord is crazy short, forcing you to buy an extender cable. Overall amazing buy !

    I love having 30 classic games on the system. With Tecmo Bowl, Dr. Mario and Punchout, as well as Super Contra and some others, the Nintendo Classic is hours of fun. Great for anyone who grew up with the old school Nintendo.

    It has the nostalgia of gaming old school, but newer technology with the emulators. No more glitching, No more blowing in games, and the picture quality has been cleaned up a bit and you use an HDMI cable to hook to your tv, not the old coax cable.

    I been playing those games since it first came out, after years or other news systems and games come up, I almost forgot about it. Now it puts all my favorite games in one tiny system, it does bring back memories and I can play it all over again...

    It was a great gift for my husband. He plays the football game on it all the time. It was very easy to hook up. He is definitely a kid again playing his childhood games and teaching our daughter her first video games on it.

    This has been a hit with younger kids and adults how played these games as kids. It works as advertised and we haven't had any problems. Only negative is that the controller cords are short so you have to sit close to the console.

    The NES Classic delivers an engaging throwback gaming experience in an affordable, easy-to-digest package. Its issues are well-documented, but if you enjoy the games of yesteryear, this is a great way to spend your time and money!

    The NES Classic Edition brings back memories of the earlier days of home video gaming systems. My sons are enjoying the 'primitive' video games of the past. I do recommend getting the extensions for the controllers.
