    Love having this unit and not having to blow into the cartridge or turn the power on and off over and over. Dozens of classic games and the ability to save. Two thumbs up!

    If you are looking to relive your youth and revisit some of the best NES games I highly recommend this. I would pick up an extension cord as the controller cord is not long.

    If youve been under a rock for the last 3 years this is a mini Nintendo system with 30 of the best old school Nintendo games ever made. Buy it before you cant get one.

    Took me back to the 80’s where I’m again spending hours having fun. My only wish was for Contra which I got! It’s listed as Super C! Yeah boyeee! In my Flava Flav voice. Lol

    Who doesn't remember sitting in front of the old tube TVs smashing away at your NES controller? This is a great throwback and very nostalgic. A great buy and easily will kill hours of time.

    Great little system that plays great and good quality brings back so many great memories of when I was a kid...I missed out when they first came out but thank you Nintendo for releasing again but I do recommend getting an extension or wireless remote because the remote wire is super short.

    Bought two of these, keeping one in box as a collector's item, the other to play. Great to play some of these nostalgic classics to hopefully pass on to the next generation.

    Great selection of games and save state feature is a great addition Controller wire is waaay to short and having to hit the reset button on the console to return to the main menu is just plain dumb Price and library make up for the design flaws though

    This is a great product for those that love the old Nintendo system. I do believe they didn’t need to be so cheap and just make the cords to the controllers longer. Instead they want you to buy the extensions. So unless you want to sit real close to the tv, buy the controller extensions.

    I have been wanting to my hand on these for a while. Love that it comes with games preloaded. I really like the size, very portable. I wish it came with two remotes though.

    Bring back the nostalgia

    Nintendo was smart for bringing back the Nintendo classic. Who wants to rummage through a pile or library of cartridges when you have the listed library of games as soon as you power on the sysytem. The other cool feature is that you could use points to save a place in game that you would have to replay in the old days. My only negative remark is that I wished they gave all the games with screen shots of the game as those were the initial releases for the Nintendo like Kung-fu, Hogan’s Alley, Wrecking Crew, clu-clu Land etc. those are some of the core games, but I guess we can’t have everything in life. Thanks Nintendo

    This was a great return to nostalgia for me. My children enjoyed it for a bit but prefer the more modern systems. For me, they never get old.

    So glad they bought this back! All the fun as a person remembered in the size of a person’s hand. Preloaded games are plentiful & just as one remembered. Only downsize is the controller cord is super short, so get ready to be familiar with your tv screen again. Definitely worth it though!

    If you enjoyed playing the classic Nintendo games as a child, this is for you. Sure you can make your own but this is put together nicely and is ready to go. I would have given it 5 stars but the controller cord is useless. They should have attached a longer cord or just made it wireless.

    I am so glad that Nintendo come up with the new improved game. When I was a kid I had the old one and still had it until 3 years ago. Now I don't have to blow cartridges toplay the games.

    This thing is great. It has the NES essentials and you can take it on the road, great for hotel rooms, the office during break time, or anywhere you can find an HDMI input.

    I got this because I had a Nintendo as a child. The games are just as I remember, including the graphics. While this is a great system, be sure you buy either cable extenders or wireless controllers because the cord that are on the included controller is about 3 feet long, if that.
