This is definitely worth it. They finally made a retro bundle that includes (most of) the right games, and it's now finally widely available at it's intended price. Control is perfect, imho. It seems to respond exactly the way I remember the same games playing, and I played most (not all) of them originally quite a bit, as I'm sure most of you did. Mega Man II in particular I thought was a great test of controller response, and it felt great. Not sure why there are negative reviews commenting on control or appearance of the games - it seems very solid, and I love the square pixel perfect mode. The game save mechanism is also pretty good. At any time during any game, you can press the 'reset' button on the base system to return to the home menu. At that point, there will be a little floating square in the bottom left that represents the temp save point of the game you were just in. You can either go back to it and continue playing, or, press down and it will give you the option of permanently saving that as a game save to one of the four save slots for each game. You can either fill an empty one, or replace a previous save. That is, each game can have four separate saves of it's own, not just four total for the system. Some notable games that is doesn't have, sadly, are: Mega Man III, Dragon Warrior III or IV, Tetris, Blaster Master, Castlevania III, Contra. Before you search for a second controller in store or online, if you have any controllers that plugged into your Wii-motes, those should work on this system. Nintendo's site for this system has a page that lists compatible controllers - take a look, there are several. If you have a box of Nintendo stuff, chances are you have one. Yes, the cord for the controller is extremely short - I thought this only added to the nostalgic part of sitting in front of the TV as a little kid for hours. Of course it's not a long term way to play - there are many inexpensive extensions available. My advice on this would be to get over it, get an extension, or get a wireless controller. Just keep in mind how many stock cords come with things these days that you immediately discard for something custom you buy anyway. The sticking point made out of the cord length by some negative reviews is laughable. Lastly - some people will mention roms/emulators and making a better version of all this with a RaspberryPi or similar. Yeah, you can do that - but I'd first ask yourself how much time you're really going to put into these games. There's plenty on here, and it has several good games. My point here is, don't let the "Can do much better with an R-Pi setup with hundreds of NES/SNES/N64 instead of just 30 NES" reviews and comments mislead you into thinking this is some kind of ripoff. This NES classic is a great value with zero setup time (for comparison, it's the equivalent of a new PS4/Xbox game today, and I'd say the hours of entertainment are about equal or more to one of the better games on those systems). It's not a wrong move by any means. R-Pi is a different option for people with different needs. I have a NES classic and I'll probably still make the R-Pi thing. Show less

The best re-release ever!
The NES Classic just might be one of my favorite consoles to play with.So recently,my family and I bought this and thought it would be so good but turns out having it in person is just a chef’s kiss.My family love playing these addictive fun yet simple games espically Super Mario Bros. 3 My Husband and Son love playing together!it is so good to see them play together.It really reminds me of the old days.I really recommend it for old classic people or people from a younger generation and want to ask what the past was about and can have a taste of it in the Classic NES.If you have the Wallet strength to withstand the pricepoint but overall10/10 great gaming console.my only wish is that they can port claasic games in the NES into the Classic NES.

A great product that should be purchased at $79.99, rather than the reseller prices. Wait for them to come back into stock.

Simplemente el recordar.....
La compra fue hecha directamente con AmazonMx y no con terceros, la compre un Domingo a las 11am y llego a casa el Lunes a las 2pm, el envió fue excelente y sin contratiempos, no me quede con ganas de tenerla de nuevo ya que yo la compre en su lanzamiento en el 2016, un detalle es que las consolas de ese tiempo venían con unos sellos en las aberturas y por lo que pude investigar en estas nuevas remezas que saco Nintendo ya no las traen, la consola y sus accesorios están impecables, esto es una compra para todos los nostálgicos treintañeros que aunque ya no tengamos tiempo para jugar nos gusta tener algo que nos recuerde aquellos tiempos....Gerardo JavierSimplemente el recordar.....
