    Your classic Nintendo with most of the top games loaded. Only thing I’d like to see is an ability to select another game without having to hit the reset button.

    Although the latest games are amazing it’s nice to go back to the early days and experience the games I grew up playing. Only downside is the cable for the controller is too short, requiring you to sit close. Being able to save is great, no more having to start all over every time.

    Bought these for the kids. Had to buy a few. They enjoyed and loved it. It was a great Christmas for them. They opened it and started playing them immediately.

    This system really brings me back to my childhood and allows me to share that with my kids. Great classic games on here. My only complaint is that the cord for the wired controller is too short and the wireless controller (purchased separately) can lose connection sometimes.

    The old NES made new, and IMPROVED! Preloaded with 30 games, the only other improvement would have been an SD card slot to be able to add even more games to play.

    Awesome little game console (its really a emulator with a case and a bunch of roms inside) for the family. I bought 2 (one for me and one for the kids) But supplies have been a pain.

    I could have sold it for way more than retail, but its a gift to an older parent. They love it, took them back to raising their kids and playing games with them. Simplistic retro fun.

    All my childhood favorites in a mini console. No cartridges to blow in! Wish the controller had a longer cord and that thete were 2. Both can be purchased separately.

    This is fun for the my age (30's). Kids don't seem to care for it to much. Only comes with 1 remote.

    I only got this because it went on sale for nearly half off and a friend found a way to add every single NES game ever to the 20+ the base mini has. Highly recommend if you have pc experience with downloading programs to max it out

    The NES Classic is a great way to enjoy some of the best NES games that were released for the Nintendo. However, my biggest complaint is that the control comes with a very short 2' cable to attach to the console. I do feel that they could have included a 6' cable to make it easier to position and use.

    Took several moths to finally get one, was really glad I did find one. I love playing the old titles that I grew up with alongside my 5yr old daughter, she is a complete Mario fan!

    Waited a long time for this. Not bad. Main games are just as remembered. Only downside is that everything is standard screen. Again, totally expected and happy, but it would have been nice to have a wide screen option.

    Love love love it the games on it are great it's easy to play you can save your games. However the cord for the remote control is maybe two feet long so you have to buy an extension for it but if you plug in that extension you can only plug in one remote control so design flaw there but otherwise great

    I love this original NES. Most of the preloaded games are the games I played in my younger days. I like the small size. I only wish it came with 2 controllers.
