Got this as a gift and we had lots of fun. Really wish the controller chord was longer. Be sure to buy an extension cable for it.

A charming little system that's fun to play and just as fun to display as a collector's item. With 30 classic games from the NES era this is well worth the money.

I absolutely love it. I couldn't wait to get one. It was all I wanted for Christmas, although I had no idea how hard it would be to get one. It is so great to play the old games.

My kids now enjoy the games we got to play as kids and they love it. It is so compact and awesome that you don't have to try and figure out where to put all the games.

that is all that matters right? While I use roms, it's not something easy for your parents so I purchased this so she can play her favorite game Dr Mario.

This was a Christmas present for adult son--the boys played these games as kids and so it was fun to see them go at it again and sharing the tips and tricks.

I was so excited to get this and play the games I used to play. I am no good playing the Xbox - way too many buttons! Nintendo is simple and a lot easier!

My kids are loving playing the games I played as a kid! Great fun for the whole family. The only negative would be the controller length. It is way to short

Brought back memories to the older generations and still FUN for the younger generations. Kids ranging 8-16 were arguing who would be going next every time.

This brings back a lot of great memories, it is a great value too. The fact that the whole thing costs less than what one game used to cost makes it a great deal!

Very hard to find but if you're able to find one, you'll be able to relive your childhood! The controller's cable is pretty short so make sure to pick up an extension cable

It's easy to use and get gaming in minutes. Great construction if it is very light in weight, but cables won't bog it down and move it out of place. Nintendo needs to make more!

This console brings back the memories and charm from when you use to play the NES back in the day.
The controller is spot on replica of the original NES controller, as I've compared them side by side.
The menu is also very charming and easy to navigate and use. Allows for quick and easy save states(up to four per-game), so you can actually beat these games you never imagined you could back in the day.
The games look very nice with the HDMI out, and the CRT filter that you can apply the games looks like you were playing on an old CRT back in the day.
The 30 games included is nice a variety in terms of quality and genre.
