Takes me back...
This gaming device has the majority of the games I enjoyed playing growing up when we got our very first Nintendo back in 1988 or '89. Contra, All 3 Mario Bros., Rad Racer, Excitebike, Double Dragon, Paperboy, Rampage, etc. etc. It has many additional games I have never even heard of. Some of the games don't have the greatest quality, but are definitely good enough to play and have fun reminiscing about those summer days sitting in front of the screen. You don't even have to tap on the games and blow on the 8 bit cartridge to get it to work properly and you don't get frustrated from the intro screen skipping over and over. The controllers are exactly the same, except for the 2 additional buttons that are a rapid fire as if you are pressing the normal fire button 3 times fast. The size of the console is nice since it will take up much less space then the original console. Some have mentioned that there are duplicate games but I haven't found any duplicates. Some of the music is different in some games, but all of the games I loved to play are the original sounding 8 bit tunes. You will have to get an audio/video RCA cable converter to HDMI if your TV doesn't have the red and yellow input ports. It doesn't have the red and white cables, just the red. You can play it on any TV that has those ports or HDMI if you use a converter. You don't have to play it on an older TV, as some people have mentioned. Audio/video is audio/video and as long as you have the correct ports (RCA or HDMI), it will work. Overall this is a fantastic console and I would recommend it, especially for the price.

Not disappointed at all...I'm happy!!
For the price I have to say it's a really fun gift especially for someone a little bit older who might like to revisit the older arcade games. I probably don't have to mention what everyone else has already said about the game, it does have games that are a little glitchy and that some of the characters speak another language and there are some duplicates but honestly for the price even if you got to use 20 out of the 620 games it's perfectly fine and worth it in my opinion. I chose this one out of so many others because they really are the same exact game just with different manufacturers and delivery dates. The fact of the matter is why wait till a month from now when you can have it for a lot sooner in good condition and as long as you make sure that you have an older TV to play it on that uses the AV connection or newer television that still allows for that option you are good to go. My uncle thought this was perfect. I did see this exact same game in Walmart and the ratings there are similar to here and my original idea was to buy it at my local Walmart check it out and because this was $10 cheaper I would decide what to do. However, I decided that was a whole lot too much work and I didn't want to stand outside in 90 degree weather wearing my mask waiting to go into the store and socially distance myself all for a game so I didn't and I took a chance. It was a chance I'm happy I took. I had a question and I asked the seller about set up and in just a few hours I had an answer in my email. At first I thought it wasn't working but that was actually resolved before the seller could respond but all the same I'm always happy when the seller responds promptly. It means they stand behind their product. Albeit this is not the very best little game in the world it truly was the best choice if you just want to revisit the oldies or show the oldies to some of the newbies. The only downside to me is that there is no memory. You finally make it to those Mario Boards of yesteryear and can you get so far and when you shut it off your progress is gone. That being said for this price don't expect dreamy features! It's perfect and I'm completely happy with it and I would consider it giftable and I would not consider buying it from another seller at twice the price thinking it will be better because if you actually read the reviews they're all pretty similar and some are EXACTLY the SAME and we are all saying the same things just differently. The highest rated version of this game on Amazon will not get to you until mid August and I just changed the calendar to July 1st the other day!! Go ahead and buy the game and enjoy yourself. I can't say how long it'll last or much about its longevity but again at this price point you really can't lose so give it a try and have some fun. I don't think you'll be disappointed one bit.

No need for the Internet anymore, I've got this game system!
I no longer need to waste my life mindlessly doom-scrolling thru CNN or trying to hook up on Facebook. I can now literally spend 14 hours day playing 100's of fun, challenging retro games! I don't even go to work anymore. I mean I didn't work much before, but now my butt is firmly planted in front of my mom's TV. I've delivered enough pizza in my life, time to treat myself.

Bringing back memories
Awesome, had lots of games that brought back memories, wish they had more of the major titles and not so many weird ones no one has ever heard of.. but for $20+-$30 me and my kids had fun.. funny how new games have so much control and the kids had such a hard time playing something so simple, made dad a pro !
