Product was opened Christmas morning by my 6 and 9 year old daughters. They went ballistic, having played the NES at a family friends house, and immediately recalled the joy and elation they (and I) felt after beating Suler Mario Bro's level 1. All the hook ups were perfect. Well packaged, brand new, and the power voltage was the correct one. Went to play the 1st game blue screen or blinking light. After some research turns out the games can have dirty leads which means the dirt from the game can keep the game from playing & no amount the old blow on the cartridge trick was going to suffice. I emailed. I was in from overseas and well out of return range. Alex, not 20 minutes later emailed me back, Christmas morning with a heartfelt apology and some suggestions to get me back into glory days. If that didn't work, the time issue would not be a problem, theybwould make it right. Following the instructions on cleaning the leads on the games, I was back in action and my kids and I have spent hours obliterating Glass Joe, Tetris, and Super Mario Bro's. Had I purchased from any other big box retailer, I'd still be lost in phone support. It works as described, designed, and promised. I'm grateful for the outstanding customer service and product. Now I know: make sure the games are cleaned properly before using them. The product is 35 years old, but it appears and functions as though I pulled it off the shelf 35 years ago from ToyRus. Great Purchase. Forever grateful. Read full review

I had one of these when they first came out in 1985. Back then they were considered state of the art. Now they're more of a novelty item, but my son is into collecting retro gaming consoles and he wanted one for Christmas. He loves all the old games and this will really make his day. So my rating might be somewhat askew, but only because after 26 years the ease of use of this product without changing the 72 pin connector, well it makes getting it to work properly somewhat challenging. Games should be cleaned too which helps in making these old units work. Remember blowing on the cartridges? Well q-tips and high grade Isopropyl rubbing alcohol works quite well. As for the value for the money, I'm rather shocked by some of the prices these things are going for, but good deals are out their and even heavily used ones are easily put back into working order with parts readily available here on eBay and how-to videos on Youtube. This product is decent if you or a loved one likes theold school games but doesn't compare to the new fangled, HD goodness of the xBox 360 or the PS3. Hope this review helps some!Read full review
Classic system, classic fun. Those games you had fun with as a kid? They're still fun... no nostalgia required. The system has that great feeling of simplicity. It can still be testy when it comes to playing dirty games and the connector usually needs to be cleaned. Luckily, the internet is a gold mine for learning the proper way to clean the games and system. It's very rewarding to take the NES apart and clean it to get it working again. The NES is built very well, and one good cleaning will keep it working for many years. No special tools, skills, or deep breaths are required... (if you didn't know, don't blow on the cartridges anymore.) Pick one up, to re-live old memories or to make new ones. You won't be disappointed.

Great Nintendo Game Console.....this took me back to thirty years ago when the NES first came out. I've been having fun playing the old Nintendo games I played as a youngster. I give it a 4 star review!
