    Out of all the mini consoles that have come out recently this one is unique. Not only does it come with 85 embedded classics which by the way is the most out of all the retro consoles it also has a slot which allows you to add more games. A must have !

    The only reason this gets a four star and not a five star rating is that the screen has frozen on a few occasions, but not recently.

    We are so happy with this gaming system. Our 12 year old loves it and it brought back great memories for us. Love that it comes with so many games loaded,but you can use Sega game cartridges too. It's a great buy and very reasonably priced.

    Brings back memories from mkII. Even the kids like playing even with the 1990's graphics. 4 stars. Sometimes freezes.

    OK so it's a cheap console that has a whole load of old school games on it. Most of them are ones that we haven't really heard of and the game play is obviously nothing like the newer games. However they have done a good job, the menu selection is well done and the output via HDMI is good. Other consoles like this only have RCA output so having the HDMI is perfect.

    This item is great for my guest room. I live in the country and it gives my guests some entertainment when they just want to hang out indoors or if we are trapped by the weather.
