My girlfriend got me one of these for Christmas this year, because I legitimately asked for this. I am beyond words. Hands down the most amazing gift I've ever received. 10/10. Besides the actual very good nes games on the system. The hacks are a riot. Mario 14 had me in tears

[@therealbigfoot3076]

I did also.. did you get the HD version or the av?

[@adamjames2254]

@@therealbigfoot3076 I got the AV version. Sucks that the AV cable is so short. Otherwise I've been enjoying it a lot. Even some of the hacks are pretty decent games. Like Mario 10. It's ridiculous but actually not a bad game at all. I spent most of this morning playing Batman. Everything plays pretty nicely on it

[@pdunc1976]

look at it this way,if you played a bunch of these games as a kid,then for $20 you bought a time machine because these games bring back memories whether you want them to or not.$20 is a cheap price to pay to be able to relive some of your youth!

[@ijansk]

My first console was a copy of the NES that looked exactly like the NES with an extra slot for those small yellow catridges on top. My mother gave it to me as a Christmas gift in 1998 and I was so happy with it. I thank my mother for buying one for me.

[@yaboidustin2447]

Small yellow cartridges? That sounds like Famicom disc system disc's. I'm probably mistaken, but I'm curious

[@jermainemorton3752]

I can honestly say the only thing about the system that I like better than the classic is the fact that it has more games on it even though somebody games I just stages it’s not a bad deal at all and if you can’t get a Nes classic this is definitely the next best thing

[@thecheerio3630]

my local mall has a kiosk selling those and a snes versions that still has nes games, but they sell it for $60, and there is never an employee there. Ive walked passed it a tone and only seen an employee there one time

[@philliplancaster2231]

Got one here in Bakersfield CA also. Also 60 bucks, but it has a completely different interface and list of games. Still not worth it with all the homebrews and hacks on it tho, it would be nice to find one with all 714 licensed nes games. No bs

@Professorkhaos83 Yea. Even if you only find a few good games in it, it's still worth it. I enjoyed playing games like "Popeye," "Kung Fu Master," "Pacmania," and "Burger Time" again.

[@larrybivens9987]

I've had mine for a few weeks and yes there are some bad games, but I find myself enveloped in going through them all and rating them personally. The controllers are definitely my biggest concern, although I doubt replacements are very expense. I recommend to anyone that just likes playing NES titles or time killing games. Friday the 13th is an amazing game on there along with Rock'n kats and Mario of course. It's a very simple setup and plays perfectly. So down a couple cold ones and relive the days of 8-bit, challenging fun.

[@princenoahpalabasan7806]

I'm a kid but I still had this too

[@TheAxelay]

I still have my Micro Genius after 31 years but not to many games for it (especially NES but a fair amount of Famicom carts though), was a proud owner of SPICA console at one time as well..I just bought the Coolbaby HD-MI 600 and it's the best Famiclone you can probably get!

[@avillazamora3660]

This is so weird... I've seen this console a bunch of times but I've seen like three slightly different versions apparently, they all have the same visuals on the box but some are mate and other have a shinny look (on the box), I actually have the pleasure to own one with turbo buttons and cheap ass packaging (and some *stanky* games) but I've seen some with just two buttons and some more decent packaging, also the consoles look slightly different and the emulation seems to be better or worse in some of these. Is this like a 'knockoff of a knockoff' situation or wtf? I am confusion

[@avillazamora3660]

Also I really think none of these knockoffs are worth it. You can get some knockoff NES controller for about $13 o Amazon, (I know the Retrolink USB controller is good, it's like $30) get some emulator, plug it in, set it up and probably get better emulation and a better library, and maybe you can even connect the PC to some old TV and you got the full experience. The only problem would be finding ROMs after Nintendo's power crusade...but it's still possible :T Pd: I'm not completely talking from personal experience, I haven't used any of the controllers that I mentioned and I haven't tried plugging my computer to an old TV but I've used emulators for years and it's good idk. I have nothing against the NES mini I just think if you can't get the original it's better to emulate than to buy a bootleg NES.

[@hey3947]

@@avillazamora3660 its worth it for 20 damn bucks bro

[@govols1885]

There are definitely knockoffs of the knockoffs. With some super shitty games.... Bought one today for $25 . Mainly for TMNT 2. Stated on the box it had the complete turtles collection...... It had the original and some tmnt tournament game I don't remember. No arcade or Manhattan. I was disappointed tremendously. 😂 Plus the 2P remote port didn't work and the was no game list in the packaging.

[@UnicornPlaysMinecraf]

Thanks for showing this Proto, just ordered one for me and the gf to play!

I still have a 70,000 in one (or whatever huge number- don't recall at the moment, actually some 70 games repeated ad-nauseum) somewhere that a friend gave me some years ago. It wasn't a(n) NES look-alike, but it did have two controllers (oddly different- one had the appearance of an N64 controller). Cool thing was it also came with a light gun which was good as it had Hogan's Alley and Duck Hunt as I recall.

Mine didn’t buzz like that. I have the exact same system. Could be your tv?

"Only include classic Mario Bros, just literally didn't include Mario Bros 2 or 3" Exactly the same as what I'm thinking! XD Almost every knockoff console available will confirm including these 3 mario games all the time, somehow this console (or version cos it seems there are other different 620 in 1 version console overall) is the only one that's REALLY RARE for not having Mario bros. 2 and 3 in it.

Matthew Bates Well you know. For better graphics and stuff? 😳

[@MysterioTGN]

You realize that that wouldn't make a different for NES emulation right? They could put a Titan X and 8700k in it and it wouldn't make a difference. With NES emulation you want the weakest hardware that can emulate it close enough to cut down prices. It would overall be worse with a better CPU and GPU because it would bring the price up without making any performance changes.

Matthew Bates ok... I suppose it wouldn't. Chill
