Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love this NES Classic. I only hope that there will be a way to add more games in the future. As the connection is there for a USB cable for power to the device; it is possible that this same port would make it capable of software updates. The only other issue that concerns me is the cord length for the controller. 3 feet! Really? All above said; I love it despite the drawbacks.

Some of the most classic, and difficult games I played as a kid are here. From the campy retro music on the game selection screen to the CTR Filter display option, it's a step back into childhood. The controller could've used a longer cord though.

There are not really many things that need to be said about the NES Classic. If you grew up with the original NES, then this is a must have. If you didn't, then be wary, gaming has come a very long way and a 2 button controller might confuse you!

Game plays exactly the way it did when I was a kid and it first came out. I am already hooked again on many games like Legend of Zelda and Metroid. Just need another controller so I can play Tecmo bowl against my friends who keep asking to come over

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.

I just thought it would be fun to have what I had as a kid growing up

Got it in December. Family and friends have fun with this. Wish there were more games that I used to play. There is only 1 controller included and it has such a short cord, so you should get an extension cable or an off-brand controller with a longer cord. It works fine, just has a few kinks in there every once in a while where the sound and controllers may not work as well as they should.

This is the thing to get to re-live old memories playing NES games in higher quality. Once you've filled up on playing the included games you can Mod the system and add a ton more, and still be able to use the features in the UI.

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.

It's like 1988 all over again. It's been great reliving all these memories and sharing them with my kids. Simple to use, plug it it to power and HDMI and that's it. Interface is easy to use. Well worth it to relive the memories.

I love this Nintendo system sooooo much!!!! I’ve had so much fun playing all the old games I used to. And introducing them to my nephew who has been killing it in Super Mario!! So much fun!

We just recently started letting our 5 year old start playing video games and this console is perfect for a new gamer. Plus, my husband has fun playing the old school games with him. We bought longer cords for remotes. The only thing that would make it better was if there was a way to get to “home” from the remote instead of having to push button on the console.

Easy to hook up joy stick easy to work all the games work very well..

I used to own it when I was young, was stolen, haven't own it since, now I finally have it with most of the games I used to have, it's wonderful. Not happy for scalpers/resellers though.

I'M SO MIND BLOWN ABOUT THE CONTROLLERS CORD LENGTH... 3-4X SHORTER THAN THE ORIGINAL... AND NO YOU CANT USE THE ORIGINAL ONE... SO, REALLY NINTENDO, YOU COULDN'T HAVE MADE THE CONTROLLER CORD LONGER... IM BASICLY SITTING ON TOP OF THE TV TO PLAY IT... I CAN HEAR MY MOTHER YELLING AT ME, YOU'RE SITTING TOO CLOSE... MOVE BACK!! HAHA HA...BUT STILL A GOOD PRODUCT

I have always loved the classic Nintendo system. My kids have grown up playing the newer systems. However when we got this the kids started to love the older stuff. They play it all the time. It is really enjoyed in the house.

Quality retro games console that anyone playing in the 80s and 90s will enjoy. Younger generations who love the simpler retro life will also have a great time playing! Make sure you buy an extension cable for the controller!!

I've waited for over a year to get my hands on one of these. It has a great selection of games from my childhood. However, the color seems to be dulled occasionally, it will flash to the right color scheme, then dulls back. It's upsetting. And it's been so hard to get one of these that I couldn't take it back for a new one because they were sold out within hours.

The NES classic is great if you really enjoyed the NES era of games. It has 30 games on it so make sure to check if there are games you will enjoy. It only comes with one controller so be sure to grab a second one if you want to play with Player 2. The controllers are wired so remember that. An awesome buy for people who had a great time with the NES.

Everyone will enjoy having one of these as part of their househould, young and old! As a child of the 80s the fact that something like this now exists in the world today is a huge nostalgic hit, and we can share it with newer generations now!
