Reviews around button controller (5.00 of 5)

  • Both six button controllers (great for fighting games) feel sturdy and solid
  • The 6 button controllers are great and feel good, just little bit plasticky, but good with very long cables

Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • Great prices and all but the system I ordered (Genesis 3) arrived heavily scratched, missing one of the covers on the cartridge slot, and the piece of crap controller they included stopped working after less than an hour of gameplay
  • The price is good (under $28 shipped; just add a cheap add-on item to get free shipping from Amazon)

Reviews around sound (5.00 of 5)

  • It has a TCT-6801 console-on-a-chip which means it is compatible with Everdrive flash carts, high-capacity multicarts (112-in-1, 126-in-1, etc) and has accurate sound (unlike old AtGames clones)
  • Games play flawlessly and the sound seems perfect to my memory

Reviews around quality (4.03 of 5)

  • Overall for under $30, it's a good quality budget clone if you don't mind the mono sound and humming (or buy a 9v 1A center-negative ac adapter).
  • Solid build and the quality of the controllers is unbelievable
  • :(- Some game lag (if playing on a flat-screen tv)- Awful sound quality
  • So if you order and have any issues with grainy/fuzzy picture I recommend getting a decent quality AV cable
  • Read remaining 6 reviews for quality

  • tv... good product a mudy have if you in old games

  • :(- Some game lag (if playing on a flat-screen tv)- Awful sound quality
