20 Best Gaming Console For Kids (2023 Updated)

The Leapfrog LeapTV Educational, Active Video System is an exceptional gaming console for children ages 3-10. There is a nice variety of games that come with the system and then you can add to your collection either by purchasing other cartridges or apps for the app center.

Setting up the system was quick and very easy. A lot of gaming systems require a lot of calibrating before you can use it and this one does not. All you have to do after connecting the wires is point the camera at the chest height of the children.

This is so simple that anyone could do it. I received the system for free in order to try it out and review it, and I liked it so much that I bought a second controller and 8 additional games/apps for it.

My grandsons and I play with it all the time and they have not become bored with it at all. What I like most about this console is the fact that the games are designed to teach children in a variety of ways and allows for active movement while doing so.

Many of the educational games that are available are sedentary and expensive. The Leapfrog LeapTV console requires active movement for all of the games and activities. My grandsons are 4 and 7 years old and both can play with the games separately and many of them they can play together.

Their favorite game cartridge is the Spiderman one. The Spiderman graphics are excellent and yet they are still learning while they are playing. Great alternative to other systems where you have to screen for violence and other less than desirable behaviors before you purchase.

We have a family of gamers, ranging in age from 18 down to 4. The younger kids always want to get in on the video game action, but the games are either not appropriate for them, or the controls are too complicated to handle.

Enter LeapTV, the first console gaming system actually designed for children aged 3-8. This system is not only extremely simple to set up (it took me under five minutes. even with twin four year-olds clamoring behind me), it is intuitive for the children to play.

The games have three different play modes, and depending on the game selected, will either require no controller at all ( using the camera, and placing your child IN the game), or pointer controller, where the game is played similarly to a wii remote (but with a cushioned end and more natural grip), or classic control in which the controller is held in two hands and buttons are pushed.

The transitions between scenes in games is a bit slow at times, but worth the wait, and allows for some downtime for excitable kids. The graphics are fresh and clear, the sound is good, and, most importantly, play value is high! This is a system that my girls will enjoy until they “grow into” the x-box or playstation in their upper elementary years.

As a busy mom, I appreciate the small footprint of the game. As a frugal mom, I would appreciate a rechargeable controller. If you have more than one child who will play, or frequent playdates, you will want to purchase an additional controller.

Additional games are easily downloaded using the built-in wi-fi, or fun relatives can purchase game cartridges for birthdays and holidays. The system comes with one bonus game, Pet Play World, but you will want to make sure that you have at least one additional game.

My girls love the Sofia the First game, and there is a lot in that game to keep them busy! Disclosure: I was sent a sample of this product to facilitate my review. However, all opinions are my own, and I was not required to post a positive review.

We are a family full of gamers. Our kids range in age from 18 down to 4. Our older boys love to play video games and the little girls want to join in too. Unfortunately, games made for the “big kid” consoles for little ones are often an afterthought and either do not play well or have weak content.

The LeapTV system from leapfrog is designed specifically for kids aged 3-8. Finally, my girls have a system made for them! The LeapTV system has three play modes: body motion (uses built in camera, and does not require a controller), pointer play (similar to playing on a wii) and Classic controller (think “old school” video games.

) The LeapTV controller is designed for small hands and has minimal buttons, which helps avoid accidental button pushing that leads to frustration. As a mom, I appreciate the small footprint that the LeapTV system takes up.

It was easy for me to set up during the time the kids were in school, so they would have minimal frustrating time waiting for their game to set up. I like that there are over 100 game/activity titles available, as it gives relatives an easy to please gift for the girls.

LeapTV also has built-in wi-fi that makes it easy to download games, which also cuts down on clutter. The games are easy and fun to play, and I like that the LeapFrog educational team is behind every product.

My kids would learn their alphabet and math skills without video games, but having the game reinforce the skills they learn from preschool and for me makes playtime more educational. I am impressed by the game library with equal number of licensed characters and simply fun LeapFrog fun.

my girls especially enjoy playing along with Sofia the First, and Jake and the Neverland Pirates. If you have more than one child, or frequent play dates, you will want to purchase the additional controller.

(You also may find that you want to join in the fun!) The system comes with one pet game, but you will want to purchase at least one more game to keep interest high. Other reviewers have commented that kids will grow out of this system quicker than they will with other systems.

However, it has been my experience that all video game consoles for kids of all ages have a 2-3 year life cycle before they want to upgrade or switch platforms, so this is really no different. I would recommend this as a Christmas gift for a family considering gaming for their young children.

I’ve already recommended it several times in person. *disclosure: I was given a LeapTV system in order to facilitate my review. However, all opinions are my own, and I was not required to give a positive review.

Having seen this system reviewed by youtubers in the US over a year ago, I’ve wanted this system so badly. Was so pleased to see its release in the UK and ordered without a second thought. The games on the system are all fun to play and have a very good mix of games.

It also comes with two controllers, a hdmi and a ac to usb ( You need a charge plug). So far all great, and Happy. But as I started loading up my SD card with roms, some megadrive, some snes and then some arcade mame.

I suddenly discovered none of the Mame roms would load. So I visited youtube to see any recent comments, and lo and behold many who have bought the UK version are all complaining about the same issue.

For some reason the US version is perfect. Now don’t let this put you off, this minor hiccup has only just been discovered. We should hopefully be told a solution. However if you buy this system literally for what it is, then I’d give it a perfect score.

But retrobit know who their target audience are, so I would hope us UK users haven’t been left out of using mame roms.

Blurry video and poor emulation take away from nice game selection I just purchased v1. 1 of the Super Retro-cade (Fall 2020). While a somewhat decent unit with a nice selection of games (if you like shooters, platformers and brawlers), there are glaring issues that ruin the gaming experience.

– Many of the games stutter. This varies from making the games annoying (i. e. Mystic Riders) to unplayable (i. e. Double Dragon, Mystic Riders). – All arcade games are blurry instead of sharp due to the mandatory smoothing filter.

The smoothing filter cannot be disabled on these (only on the console games) and makes the games look terrible. This is a major concern. Hoping these issues can be addressed with a firmware update as it’s very difficult to recommend it otherwise.

I realize that this unlikely due to the age of the unit (even though it’s still actively sold). Other features I would like to see added are 240P output support for CRTs and the ability to use non Retro-bit controllers/arcade sticks.

I’m giving this console a 5 Star because of its quality for the price. The console comes with 2 controllers, the power supply and an HDMI cable. The controllers look a bit cheap at first, but not long after using them, you find they feel more like a modified SNES controller.

They could of used a different color scheme then red and white, but the physical design of the console doesn’t have much to do with the specs and what it can do. I do like the fact that comes with 90 video games composed of classic arcade games, NES and SNES, but the best part is that you can easily download more and add well over 8,000 games from over a dozen game consoles such as NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Master System, Game Gear, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and more.

Admittedly there are better consoles out there for around the same price or only a little extra, such as a Jailbroken PS3, a Jailbroken Wii or you can buy a Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi or some other one board computer, but from the jump the Retro-Bit Super Retro-Cade offers more ability than the NES Classic, Super NES Classic, Sega Genesis Flashback and PlayStation Classic (Accept the greatest game of all time Final Fantasy VII), as roms are very easy to load up on the Super Retro-Cade, allowing someone to play ALL NES, SNES and Sega Genesis games with ease.

I recommend this game console even if you do have a high end gaming PC with HyperSpin or a Raspberry Pi with Emulation Station.

This is quite an impressive console. I’ve seen these over the years but I never got one until the other day. I had the Retron 3 HD, which was nice until the SNES portion went out. I also have the Retron 1 HD, SupaRetron HD and MegaRetron HD.

But, having all of those hooked up at once takes up too much room. I wanted another all in 1 solution to replace the Retron 3 HD, and this seemed like a logical step up from that console. Unlike those other consoles, this one uses emulation to play the games, which has advantages and disadvantages.

One advantage is that it will play some NES cartridges that won’t play on system on a chip hardware clones, like Afterburner and Gauntlet. I have both of those and neither work with SOC clones, but they run like champs on the Retron 5.

It’s also nice having a dedicated slot for Famicom games, since I own a handful of them and had to use an adapter for them previously. On the negative side, I haven’t been able to get any homebrews or reproduction carts to work on this, despite the box claiming they will.

I have a couple games I backed on Kickstarter and neither will work, but they will on some SOC clones. Also, the more recent licensed releases from Retro-Bit: Holy Diver, R-Type 2 pack and Jaleco Brawler’s pack won’t work.

As far as classic cartridges go, I had graphical issues with Ms. Pac-Man for the NES (black Tengen cartridge) and there was no sound when racing on Top Gear 2 for the SNES. Also, VirtuaRacing for the Genesis won’t work, but I really wasn’t expecting it to.

Still, with 130 cartridges tested, I have less than 10 that won’t work. I don’t own any GameBoy Advance cartridges, but I own original GameBoy and GameBoy Color carts and those work great. The ones enhanced for the Super GameBoy will play with the enhancements, such as special color schemes and border art, which is nice.

I’ve also tested some Master System games using the Power Base Mini adapter and they work great. So, the compatibility isn’t bad at all. The hardware itself is solid. I’ve not had any issues with the cartridge slots being too tight.

Though, I have a more recent release, the box has a 2021 copyright and it came with the latest firmware already installed. So, it’s possible they fixed those cartridge slot issues. I know they have worked on their pin connectors in recent years.

The controller the console comes with is hot garbage, but luckily I have lots of controllers, both classic and after market controllers to use. So, who is this console for? People like me. I have some old cartridges, some that I bought as far back as 25 years ago.

And I still buy cartridges for these systems. I just wanted to play them, I’m not hung up on the perfect gaming experience. I honestly couldn’t tell you if some of these game are running a little bit differently than they did originally.

I’m sure some are, but that really doesn’t bother me. I live in an apartment, so I don’t really have room for a CRT with a bunch of systems hooked up to it, I play games on my 55″ UHDTV in my living room.

This console does what I need it to, it runs my old cartridges. So, if you’re like me and you just want to play some good old games on a modern TV, this is the way to go.

Short answer is yes. It’s had a history of issues ranging from legality, bad software, poor performance compared to what they promised, and less than perfect build materials, but after 3 years from its initial launch I believe it’s safe to say they’ve finally delivered.

They want 100% compatibility with all games this system supports and at the beginning they missed their mark by lightyears. But after three years they’ve made leaps and bounds towards that promise and improved the running system immensely with their numerous software patches.

Though they still aren’t at 100% compatibility they’ve come much closer than ever before. Build quality increased, the HDMI out only option is a turn off for a lot of enthusiasts because they want to play on their old school tv, but this systems purpose and design is meant to appeal to the modern generation and is meant to bring retro gaming back into today’s living room.

There’s an immense retro gaming library to choose from and it’s just a shame some people only know what the PS4 or the Xbox One have to offer. I believe their choice in HDMI only was a good choice however would have been nice to include both options.

Plus with the availability of upscaling and to see these classic games in high definition is an experience in itself especially to anyone who grew up playing those games. BIG DRAW BACK though is there controller.

It’s not ergonomic, it’s not nice to the touch, it’s EXTREMELY loud and clicky and just not worth using but that’s my own opinion. I recommend getting original controllers which this system supports the use of either original NES, SNES, or even sega genesis controllers or if you have your hopes up for wireless gaming then I HIGHLY recommend 8bitdo’s line of Bluetooth controllers.

They have excellent build quality, wonderful performance (even though a bit hard to pair the first time), and are decently priced. All around the system is very impressive. They’ve still got room for improvement but all together I recommend the system to anyone who wants to dabble in retro gaming.

Awesome retro gaming system. So you blow on ur game, insert game to the correct slot, The RetroN 5 plays Game Boy , Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Famicom, Super Famicom, Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Genesis, and Mega Drive cartridges all in HIgh Definition baby! So what it actually does is emulate the game u enter so that you get a HD version on ur TV.

Also, you can plug in ur old original controllers add use them across all platforms!!! So play sonic on ur NES controller 😀 Now this system makes it worh buying those old video games once again. Im very satisfied with the Retron 5.

It functions great, there no problems reading any of the cartridges, & never freezes. I bought this to replace my original snes & sega genesis consoles so I could sell them. Unfortunately the genesis attribute of this system has a fatal flaw, the reset button.

Example, in the X-Men game for genesis you need the reset button to proceed in the danger room levels. Pressing reset on the original genesis console will allow you to proceed but on the hyperkin retron 3 it does a complete reset.

Another example, entering cheat codes on Sonic 2 such as level select, you can reset on original keeping whatever cheat codes already entered but pressing reset on retron 3 completely wipes it & reboots.

At least it replaces my snes but my sega genesis is still useful. I hope I can find a solution to reset function other wise I wont be able to beat x-men on the hyperkin retron 3. & because of this reset flaw, this product is valued too high.

This is a good console for what it does. What it does is play cartridges from NES, Genesis/Mega Drive and SNES/Super Famicom. The only one I haven’t been able to test is Mega Drive, because I don’t have any.

With adapters, you can also play Famicom, Master System and Game Boy. Unfortunately, they didn’t fix the issue that the Mega Retron HD has, where playing NTSC Master System games with an adapter (or flash cart) won’t display correctly, forcing you to switch the console over to PAL to fix the error.

This can cause some NTSC games to not run at the correct speed. While this isn’t a documented feature, Master System compatibility has always been part of the Genesis hardware and it would have been nice if they had fixed the other.

There are HD Genesis clones that run NTSC Master System games flawlessly. Playing games that it’s meant to run works well. I’ve tested many NES, Famicom, Genesis, SNES and Super Famicom games without many errors.

There are some NES and Famicom games that won’t work due to them using special hardware, such as Afterburner. That game won’t work on any clone console I’ve tried it on. However, I have found that this clone seems to be more compatible than others.

I have some newer NeS cartridges that I got as Kickstarter rewards that other HD clones won’t play or won’t play well. They run great on this console. I’ve found no compatibility issues with the SNES (wasn’t expecting any) and none with the Genesis.

This console will even play some hard to play games, like Virtua Racer. Video and audio are what you expect from an inexpensive clone. Video is only 720p and some of the characters can kind of look blurry.

However, it’s still way more resolution than you can get from the original hardware without serious and expensive mods. The colors are a bit off, especially on the NES portion. But, this is what you expect from inexpensive clones.

The sound is also slightly off. But, both video and audio will be close enough for most people. The biggest issue this console has is that it doesn’t come with enough controllers. All of the controller ports are wired to their respective boards and there’s no way to use the SNES or Genesis controllers to control the other portions of the console.

This means the included Scout and Squire controllers won’t work for the NES portion. If you have NES controllers already, you’re set. If not, you need to get a controller for the NES portion separately.

This could leave some people with no way to play NES games out of the box. This is inexcusable, since Hyperkin makes a really nice NES controller called the Cadet. All said and done, this console accomplishes a lot for $85.

It does what it needs to and does it well enough for most people. Those who live and breathe these old games won’t like the sound and video. But, those people shouldn’t be looking at cheap clones anyway.

For people like me who just have a bunch of old cartridges from back in the day and want to play them without the hassle of multiple consoles, it’s perfect. However, not including a NES controller to keep costs down is inexcusable, and I’ve docked them a star for that.

Even if including one made the console cost a bit more, I think a lot of people would think it was worth it. After all, if you don’t have a controller already, you have to spend the money anyway.

My main concern when buying this was I was going to get some extremely cheap product that didnt feel or play well. I was pleasantly surprised to find the packaging that it came in and instructions were high quality.

The console itself looked great and the controllers felt great as well. Nothing about the unit felt cheap or poorly made. I was even surprised that the company (Retron) included a retron sticker and thank you for supporting the brand note.

Im happy with the console.

My oldest grandson tried it out. I ended up having to order another one for him. I thought he was too old for it. But he loved it.

Nintendo must be raking in a lot of cash right now because they are selling hardware with a chip that nearing a decade in age. The net code for online games is clearly from the X360era, I jest not with Mario Kart being the sole exception in my experience.

Moreover, you have to spend money to use this infrastructure but the blame lies entirely on Microsoft for standardizing that. The analog stick drift is still an issue with this budget revision of the original.

Despite all that, I decided to purchase this machine. Why? Gameplay-driven games or just games. Nintendo clearly only has this one thing going on for them and that is they make excellent games, for the most part.

If it’s something by their EPD division or Retro Studios, you’ll be in for a treat. However, everything else, especially the third-party games are massively inferior compared to the versions on the competitors’ hardware while having to pay more for those games, something which is commonly referred to as the Nintendo tax by the gaming community.

People have been calling this a neat little machine for indie games. However, now that the Steam Deck is out and the wait times have been cut down significantly, I’d recommend that over this. But what about the difference in price you may ask.

To that I say the games are cheaper on Steam and it really adds up on the Switch and before you know it, you’ll very likely have spent more money with the Switch than on the Deck. If you care about physical releases though then avoid the Deck.

There are definitely some things I really like about the Switch. For one, I can now play games while lying on my bed. I can play games in the short breaks I take. I can swap out the physical games I own without much effort I wish I could hot swap the SD card as well but as of right now, the OS doesn’t support it.

Steam Deck does, however, so it likely is not a technical limitation. As a new owner, you may have to get used to the form factor because the thing is very tiny and.

I’ve owned my Nintendo Switch for three years, the games supplied for the Nintendo Switch never disappoint. The games are fun and interactive while also being able to be played with friends and family, this console and its games have brought much joy to nights in with friends and family.

My friends and I find ourselves playing the Nintendo Switch for hours when we hang out and my family has game nights once a week where we like to enjoy Mario Party, Mario Kart, and other multiplayer games made for this console.

The Nintendo Switch allows me to play old school games that I once enjoyed as a child, which bring nostalgic feelings. This console can last and be added onto by buying joy-cons and attachments for each game, the biggest pro for this console is the fact that it can be played alone or with others.

Enjoying the new and old games on this console with friends and family is always a good time, when the Nintendo Switch is brought up everyone involved is ready to indulge in all the great selections they have for the console.

One downfall for this system is that not all games from the past are yet available for the public to play, Nintendo slowly releases games for this console old and new. The only perk I could think of to fix this minor issue is having all old school games released when the Nintendo Switch was first released, this would allow more games to play that were once played by adults when they were children.

I recommend this console to anyone who enjoys Nintendo games, it can bring a night together easily with friends and family. This console is very kid-friendly and also has a huge adult fan base, all games can be enjoyed by any age group and allow individuals to play the games they enjoy together.

I’ve always had a huge respect for portable game consoles since the PSP and the nintendo switch/lite is no exception. I’ve had mine for roughly about 6-7 months and I haven’t had any issues with it. For those wondering what are the differences between the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch Lite goes as follows; Nintendo Switch Lite is smaller in comparison and more friendly to those wanting to play hand held, Nintendo Switch Lite DOES NOT HAVE REMOVABLE joycons, the battery life is also slightly lower on the Lite than the original Switch, and the Switch Lite also does not come and isn’t compatible with the Nintendo Switch’s Dock.

The only issue that I’ve heard happens is when the controllers/joycons have drift, drift causes your controls to not respond to your movements making it frustrating to play. This is a bigger problem for the Lite since it doesn’t have removable joycons you’d have to send the entire console in for repair, as to the Switch you can detach the joycons and send those instead.

However, I’d highly recommend purchasing a Pro Controller if you see yourself playing games such as Smash Bros that require fast pace movements to your controller. All in all the Nintendo Switch Lite is a great and amazing gaming console it’s small, easy to store, and a lot of fun to use! I would highly recommend it I have the new blurple lol and I find myself using almost every day!.

I have a PC that I game from it which is why I don’t buy home videogame consoles for so long, but I did buy some portable videogame consoles, obviously from Nintendo because they got the largest share in those types of consoles so more support, having the Nintendo DS & Nintendo 3DS.

Unfortunately, the former was broken in two after extensive uses while the latter have its battery life shortened so much that it’s unplayable without being charged. So, I bought a Nintendo Switch. I like how you can play it in TV, Tabletop & Portable modes.

I like that the Joy-cons can be detached to the console and if they break you just have to replace those parts instead of replacing your whole consoles like the Nintendo DS & 3DS. It’s pretty powerful, more powerful than a Playstation 3 but less powerful than a Playstation 4, although its hardware specs are mostly shared from the smartphones & tablets at the time of its release.

I like their games and their most popular titles are made by Nintendo themselves, but for third-party developers, it can be difficult for their titles to achieve the same level of popularity unlike the Playstation & XBox consoles.

Unfortunately, those 2 competing videogame consoles aren’t portable at all, so it’s an opportunity for the 3rd party developers to take advantage of the portability of the Switch along with the motions from the Joy-cons.

Overall, this is a great console with flexible ways to play. It might be underpowered compared to its competitors and the current smartphones & tablets but as long you like their games and how fun they are, it doesn’t really matter.

It’s also very family friendly console, thanks to its motions from the Joy-cons.

My first Nintendo Switch. I was waiting for this little design update for years since I avoided the first release as Nintendo has a history of releasing a slight redesign a year or two later but this took longerI feel like the only games worth getting are the Nintendo exclusive titles.

I buy all the others off of Steam as the graphics, performance and price is better. I just wish there was a Steam client to stream via a PC but I understand why Nintendo won’t do this although from my perspective I’m not going to buy third party titles as the Switch is underpowered.

I’ve been very happy with Mario Kart, Zelda BoTW, Animal Crossing and some free to play titles. Looking forward to getting some more Nintendo fist party titles as they do squeeze a lot out of the hardware they have and Nintendo games are generally more fun IMOI do wish Nintendo would go for a high performance ARM chip though as I think it prevents developers from releasing titles that require better performance.

Hopefully the next Switch will address this and be backwards compatible as the competition have released backwards compatible consoles and I think other Nintendo customers have been very loyal to the brand and perhaps repurchasing old titles over the years has become frustrating and seen as a cash grab.

I’m too recent a customer to experience joy con drift but I’m a tinkerer so I’ll be happy to do the repair myself but I understand that a lot of people may not be happy to do this. I’m a bit surprised they did not address this problem given the widespread criticism.

So the new switch oled in white looks much nicer then the neon version with the black dock. The white joycons and dock really do look crisp and more expensive looking. Immediately on starting up the console you notice the improvement in the screen in its colours and clarity it is a nice step up and definitely noticeable.

Also on paper the screen is only 0. 8 of an inch bigger but somehow it looks so much bigger then the 6. 2” version and its much better to not have the thick black edging around the screen that is a huge and noticeable difference for the better.

Also the addition of the glass oled screen feels more premium to look at and to touch. If you understand that internally you are not getting a better chip or higher resolution and can see pass that then the screen upgrade along with the other subtle changes are well worth the upgrade.

There is certainly nothing wrong with the first versions of the switch but the oled version just feels more premium and you do notice clarity and colours a lot more in the OLED version along with a much brighter screen.

In docked mode it’s basically no different so if you only play in docked mode then it makes sense to stay with your current switch. Also if you ask yourself is the extra £50 for the OLED switch over the original switch’s current selling price justified, i would say defiantly 100% its worth paying the extra £50 and getting the OLED if you play in hand held mode.

This was a gift for 10 year old. It worked for a month and he had lots of fun playing the different games. Stopped working after a month though. Now I have a very disappointed kid.

Music way too loud, and screen brightness cannot change. Think before buy. But got plenty of games. Might be better to connect to TV to play

I bought this and got the Retron 5 instead thinking I got lucky with something that now takes 5 systems. It lasts a month or so and then completely stopped working. I mean the power would not even work, and slowly each system stopped working one at a time.

It was like doomsday or something. It takes forever to load your games, which defeats the purpose of cartridges, and the save option is pointless, as well as sound track feature, some may like it because you can hook it up to a computer and record I can imagine.

however, it is impossible to rip out your games at times, and will ruin the teeth. You can only use the cordless controller because if you try yours, it will lag even more than the game does itself at times.

You will click to jump on a platform and it wont, or will delay, so playing platform games like mega man and castlevania, becomes a feat. I pretty much bought it to use during the holidays because I had tons of games and no consoles anymore that worked.

After I got consoles later, I noticed my games never worked, and needed rubbing alcohol rub down first , but I cold be mistaken as used consoles are no better sometimes, but still far more reliable than this.

thing that impresses you at first with enhanced graphics and sound to all your games So buy this for a festivity or temporay use. The graphics are definatly enhanced but if you try using your original controllers, they do not respond well and you end up ruining the bottons pushing them too hard to try to get them to comply.

It was an interesting experience to say the least. I will never buy one again though. It self destructs on it’s own much like a lot of cheap boom boxes you buy now that suddenly stop working, and eat your tapes or wont play cd’s anymore.

The fact that the entire thing slowly stopped working is insane. So it was an effort on there part, but they need to fix all these glitches. but. if you are desperate for your old school game fix for a low price, you can consider this a rental that you do not return and expires after a month lol.

I can’t answer any questions about which games work on it beyond those three. I might consider adding more to a list as I try them out, although I imagine others have already done that, so it’s probably unnecessary.

But at this point, I would say it’s absolutely worth the price and beats trying to find original consoles. If there is a con, the biggest fault that keeps me from giving it five stars, it’s the fit of the cartridges.

It is as you have likely read before if you’re looking into these–NES cartridges are hard to get out. The SNES slot has an Eject button, which solves that issue for SNES games. But if you love your NES cartridges, take a lot of care and precision in putting them in and taking them out of the slot.

Too much pressure either way will likely end badly. Just hold down the console and gently pull the cartridge out. This is probably the single most important thing for them to get right, and they simply don’t.

I haven’t had a chance to test a lot of games, but I tried one NES game (Bad Dudes) and two SNES games (Super Street Fighter II and Super Star Wars). All three worked perfectly. Well, not Bad Dudes, but that one had to be cleaned, and then it worked just fine.

Inserting the cartridge is a little different–you can’t quite be sure if you’ve done it right until you power it on. Try not to press down too hard on the games–the way the slot is designed makes it hard to tell if you did it right, so test it out carefully.

The console itself definitely looks and feels like an SNES–I would say it is almost as heavy as an SNES. I thought it would feel cheaper. The plastic it was packaged in certainly did, but the console seems sturdy to me.

(Obviously I would not recommend dropping it, I’m just saying it didn’t feel like it would fall apart in my hands or anything. ) The controllers that came with it worked great. I have yet to try my own SNES controllers on it.

Honestly, I’m impressed. Bottom line is, it played the games with no issues as far as sound or picture (apart from just not translating well onto newer TVs–I’ve played the Retron 5 once, and that one doesn’t seem to have that problem; the SNES games I played looked just fine, but I had to adjust settings on my TV to get a decent picture for NES).

That’s really all that matters to me: does it play the games without any problems? The answer so far is yes. I have read a lot of reviews on Retrons of different numbers, and it made me wary of the product, but since I have some NES and SNES games and my actual SNES died of thus far unknown causes, it put me in the market for something new.

Plus I don’t have an NES, yet I had a few NES games that I couldn’t play without some kind of special adapter. After looking at my options and the games I actually own, I decided the safe bet was to try the Retron 2.

I’m a little confused with most of the 5/5 star reviews for this product; they either give some cons that should certainly warrant a lower score, or they only indicate that it allows them to “relive their past”.

Those types of reviews really aren’t useful and certainly don’t help the consumer make a intelligent decision about this product. People should know what they are getting into, so if you’re a potential buyer, please be careful when looking at the other 5/5 scores people give this and make sure you get all the facts.

That being said, the RetroN DOES work, as in it plays all my NES and SNES games without too much hassle. But it has a bunch of design flaws that are very annoying and some that will undoubtedly lead to trouble during long-term use.

I’ll break it down with the pros and cons: PROS – Picture is pretty good. (though, compared to a ROM it isn’t) – You can use original controllers if you have them. – It works. for now CONS – Very cheaply made.

Sure, it weighs a lot less than an original NES and SNES for easy transport, but that also means it is more fragile too. – The controllers are garbage and feel NOTHING like the original controllers (e.

g. the buttons stick out too far); Precision games like Mario are unplayable. I would definitely pick up the originalNintendo controllers if you can; I did and the difference is night and day. – The controller ports are located on the sides of the console, which is a super weird design choice and thus makes for awkward console setup in your TV stand.

It has a short cord length as well, so chances are you’re going to have to move it to the floor, which sucks because. – Any real impact to the RetroN will ruin your current play and you will need to reset the game.

– The eject button only works for the SNES and it REALLY launches it. – Putting the cartridges in the game slots is very weird; you can never be sure if it’s connected securely or not. Games connected in so tightly (especially NES) that I’m pretty sure it damages the connectors every time you take it out.

Definitely invest in some “dry lube” spay. – For my RetroN, the SNES connector was laid out a bit off center (installed slightly diagonal on the internal board), so it took awhile to figure out why I couldn’t get the cartridge to connect.

– I noticed that the audio is a bit weird in some cases; for example, the Super Mario Bros. 1 “coin grab” is definitely distorted. The SNES audio seems fine so far though. BOTTOM LINE I’m a bit torn about recommending this product, so I’ll give two scenarios: If you don’t care about quality andjust want something to play your old games (likely just for the short term), I might recommend this.

It does work after all. However, if you care in any way about quality and stability, then no, this isn’t for you. Mainly because I have doubts about the long-term use of the RetroN 2 based on its connectors and flimsy build.

Also, those controllers man. they are so bad. I would definitely recommend buying the original consoles, which you can get at a slightly more expensive bottom line.

Every improvement the Switch Lite offers is matched by an equivalent drawback. As most other reviewers have indicated, the cheaper price point comes at the expense of docking ability and the rumble and motion control features of the joy con controllers.

We knew that once the specs were announced. The Switch Lite was supposed to be offer a cheaper entry to the Switch platform aimed at players who are predisposed to use the system in handheld mode. Some of the lost features make perfect sense in this respect a smaller screen size and form factor would necessitate permanently attaching the controllers, and docking ability could be omitted for a system that was designed with handheld use in mind.

Whats surprising about this model is how it solves some problems that plagued the OG Switch and introduces new ones the spec sheet didnt suggestIMPROVEMENTS Better display for handheld mode, simply because a smaller screen features greater pixel density at the same 720p resolution.

Some players think the display panel is of slightly higher quality, but the difference is negligible. Battery life has been slightly improved. The standout improvement, however, has to be in the body build.

The Switch Lite uses a rigid plastic chassis that doesnt squeak or do the banana bend like the regular Switch. The display is mounted inside the chassis too, rather than inserted into a frame like in the original Switch.

Those of us who have had screens start to pop out of the body on the regular Switch will be overjoyed with the design of the Lite, which has a unibody style of construction keeping the screen safely where it should be.

DOWNGRADESThe controls, meaning the actual joysticks and buttons, are flimsy and audibly squeak when used. Those of us worried about joy con drift wont find any comfort in the design of the Switch Lites sticks and buttons.

The left thumbstick squeals when manipulated. The directional pad sits in a cavity noticeably larger than the button itself, making it slide uneasily when pushed. Even the input buttons on the right side feel wiggly, and they dont push into the device as smoothly as right joy con buttons do.

Use the Switch Lite for a day and youll be wondering when the sticks are going to pop off, and how much itll cost for Nintendo to repair it. The speakers are a little on the weak side too, and their placement inevitably leads to users hands muffling them.

And this little guy gets HOT when playing resourceintensive games. The heat vents at the top of the device are smaller too, so the extra heat produced in the console interior has even less of a chance to escape.

Will the Switch Lite eventually melt its own insidesWhen the Lite was announced, all the technical tradeoffs for the lower price and the portable focus felt justified. The OG Switch is kind of uncomfortable in handheld mode, and prolonged handheld use can put a great big ol bend in your Switch if you grip it too tightly.

Gamers who wanted a better portable model had every reason to be excited by the Switch Lite. For the most part, the Lite model succeeds at what it was built to do offer a better on the go Switch experience But the concerns posed by the fragilefeeling buttons and the rapid heatup of the device when in use leave me wondering how long this thing is going to last.

Note to Nintendo please make a Switch model that does not suffer from an alarming hardware problem.

Im a huge Megan Man person, so I love this little plug and play set. We keep it at our cabin and it always created great memories with our family.

great system that’s easy to set up and get playing. Mega Man is always a favorite and multiple generations can play together!

Solid wireless retro gaming device/player. Would recommend for the mega man fans out there.

Worth the money. Easy to hack and add roms onto. Far too slow for 16 bit emulation. Great for 8 bit NES and Gameboy collections. GBC, GBA, Genesis, SNES, CP1 and CP2 also run, but not well. O. K. for 16 bit RPG games or other slow paced games but the music will sound like acid jazz.

Everything speeds up and slows down constantly. You will need a key file from the internet to unlock it to add roms. Controls not great but accepts a wired Xbox 360 controller. Research before you buy, but worth the 35 dollars I paid to me personally.

First off let me begin by writing that the Retro bit Generations is still a fun device. Just heavily flawed. I think the big problem was trying to pack in 100 games in attempt to wow people and distract them from Nintendo’s offering.

They should Have focused on a solid 50 and made sure they were emulated properly and do things like display the box art in the menus. A lot of the titles are homebrews which is unacceptable. The games that do run well that are also worth playing are a shining example of what could have been.

The much talked about controller is not as bad as some say. Overall if its a fun unit, an is a niche gift product or distraction for a week.

I bought 5h8s to compliment my white model. Works fine , excepting G-Ywins or whatever AS422782923CN, doesn’t boot on any of them. The sideway shooter , is the result of the old vertical monitors type consoles.

They did not correct this for normal monitor viewing. For 30 bucks , I have no complaints. I’f recommend buying one if you are into Retor- Bit products as I am.

I have an old original NES, but it’s getting long in the tooth and a bit temperamental, so I ordered a ‘Hyperkin Retron 1 HD’ despite some perhaps questionable reviews. I’ve tried a number of games, and I have to say I think the Retron is performing better than I was lead to believe.

Most folks complain about the sound, but where I notice the difference is that some of the colours in a few games are off. An example is Dr. Mario; the Mario on the side of the screen has a pale green hue to his skin.

I also noticed while playing 1942 that the letter ‘E’ is missing from all the onscreen text (ie. R_ADY PLAY_R ON_ ) Other than that, it’s played every game I’ve thrown at it without any noticeable issues.

I have also tried this with the Super Games 150 and Super Games 143 multi-carts, and it works great with both. I have only used it with A/V composite (red/white/yellow) so far, but the video quality was on a par with my original NES (other than the colour being off in a few games).

Sound is not bad; I do notice it sound a bit fuzzy and tinny with certain sounds, like the coins in Super Mario. The unit comes with only one Hyperkin controller. The controller seems decent and on a part with an original controller.

I’ve also used it with my original NES controller and a Cirka knock-off controller, and both were fine. Is it perfect? No. Is it good enough for a casual gamer who wants to play an occasional hour or two of old NES games.

Yes. I recommend it despite a couple of minor flaws.

My unit didn’t work with the first few games I tried with it. I decided to hit it with a few blasts of air, which helped a bit but then used electronics cleaner. The cleaner made a huge difference, and now my unit works without issue.

If yours doesn’t work right away, try cleaning out the contacts, as it seems some of these might have been sitting around for a while. All in all, a great value for anyone who can no longer use their original NES but still wants to play the games without buying another NES.

Pros: it’s under $20, plays most games, is lightgun-compatible, it’s small, the controllers are good, sound for most games works fine. Lots of games work as intended and without a lot of a difference.

Cons: It grips cartridges very heavily (common issue with Famiclones), cartridges tend to have some wiggle and can require fussing with them or blowing cart to run fine, cartridge connector is not very good and pins lift a little after repeated use, sound is not perfect on every game (Super Mario Bros, for instance, seems to almost be missing a sound channel or something), plastic housing on console and controllers is cheap plastic, a rare video image jump to left and right, PCB looks cheaply put together inside and components are not very good quality.

Missed opportunities: no branding on the controllers which makes them look bare in the top-middle, no coax out (RCA only, mono audio/yellow and white plugs only), voltage is 6V which throws off being able to use USB for power input, could’ve used ABS plastic and they didn’t, could’ve used better components but didn’t.

Things I love: the controllers are actually pretty good and feature turbo and slow, aside from no branding and cheap outer housing. Most games work just fine with little difference. It’s compact, about the size of 2NES cartridges.

It’s simple and easy to set up, aside from some catridge frustrations. Thoughts: You know, Hyperkin, if you just made your console with quality parts, you could charge more money, build brand loyalty, and I would totally buy it.

I would drop $50 on the same device but with sturdier plastic, professionally made PCB with quality components, and a better cartridge connector. Your concept is phenomenal but you’re held back by how cheap it was made.

I had money stolen from me, somebody used my card number hooked it up to their Xbox account and bought over $600 worth of Xbox live, Xbox games and Xbox gold premium whatever the hell that is. I called Microsoft spoke to a couple of people even spoke to a manager, they confirmed that my card number was on a profile with Xbox I explain to them that I don’t have a profile with Xbox I don’t even own an Xbox and I’ve never owned an Xbox, they informed me that they could not remove my card my debit card from my bank account from this random persons account because I didn’t have this random person‘s email address or this random person‘s phone number.

So therefore I couldn’t access their account even though they are using my money, and my card to buy stuff on their account. I think this is extremely unprofessional, encourages fraud behavior, encourages theft behavior because all this does is protect the thief, and does nothing to the person that has been stolen from.

I am $600 out of pocket, I do not have a lot of money and that is more than half of my rent I will be facing eviction in a few days if I can’t get this money backMicrosoft and Xbox both just tell me there’s nothing they can do since I am not the account holder even though the account holder is using my card on their account without permission without consent and is blatantly stealing hundreds of dollarsI don’t understand why they can’t just remove my card from the persons account, or maybe flag the persons account To prevent them from making further transactionsI think that it’s extremely unprofessional, that there’s absolutely nothing they can do even though I can provide the full card number the Security code the address and the name But they can’t just remove my card I had to completely disable my card , and then actually completely change checking accounts , because it keeps approving pending transactions from two days ago so now my bank account went from spending five hundred dollars to negative three hundred dollars so all in all this person is spent over eight hundred dollars on Xbox live and Microsoft has dont legit nothing to help me in order to get my money that was legitimately stolen from my account.

This console is what they say it is and more! The graphics on this console from games that are optimized or made for the Series X is above par and well worth its weight in Gold! The speed of it is like they bottled of The Flash and put him to work inside! The lock isn’t as sleek as the PS5’s air purifier look but with a good Skin it turns out to be an awesome addition to my entertainment center.

Here is the breakdown! Graphics: If you are moving from the original xbox or xbox one to the series x you will notice a huge difference in graphics even on a TV that isn’t built for 4K viewing. If you are moving from the One X to the Series X you will notice some changes only to the games that are built or Optimized for the Series X but all games feel better with the speed you gain.

Overall the Series X is on par to compete with most gaming PC’s that are currently out there and once developers start taking advantage of everything the Series X has to offer I will be surprise if it doesn’t beats some gaming PC’s on the market today.

Right now I give the graphics 4. 8 out of 5 stars but will probably be 5 stars within a year. ‘ Speed: Only gaming PC’s that have the new PCI4. 0 SSD’s are as fast loading as the Series X with its games.

To have a game load within 15 seconds that normally would take 60s or more on other gen xbox’s is beautiful!! And that isn’t even talking about the games that support the awesome “quick resume” feature.

This feature is something that you don’t know you wanted till you start using it!! The quick resume alone is a selling point for Microsoft and their Series X/S consoles. Speed is beautiful in a world that is always moving.

I would give the speed a 5 out of 5 star!! If they can learn to make the loading times even faster then boy are we in for some great experiences in the future! Games: This is where, as of now, I have to say I wish there was more to offer! Game Pass alone is awesome for those who are new to xbox.

They will have 100’s of games available the day they turn on their console that they could experience for the 1st time and that is by far better than any gaming console on the market today. However, if you are looking for exclusive games that are new look great and feels great then there currently isn’t much being offered by Microsoft.

With their dozens of gaming studios they purchased over the past 5 or so years lets hope that is about to change and come E3 2021 we finally get a list of games that will make anyone want to go out and buy a Series X!!.

From someone who was originally planning on getting the ps5 I missed out and instead settled on the Xbox series x. I planned on getting this eventually but not until later in the year however this console is a great system for both new and existing Xbox fans.

First thing first the setup is quick and easy all of your games you purchased from the Xbox one era are available to download and play on your new console right after the setup. I was surprised to see all my games I bought from the Xbox one show up immediately after I set up my condo.

For those uninformed the series x can play a limited amount of games from the original Xbox from 2001 and Xbox 360 it can also play every single Xbox one game as well it also loads every game at a faster rate so you’ll be spending less time in a loading screen and more time gaming.

The quick resume feature is amazing and by far my favorite feature of the console. It lets you switch between up to 5 games at a time without going through in game menus. For example you could be playing Halo 5 and decide you want to play GTA 4 (an Xbox 360 game) you’ll switch to gta 4 and if you decide to return to halo 5 you’ll continue right from where you left off.

The console is also capable of displaying games (that allow it) at 4K resolution and 120fps if you have a tv that supports it. If not the console still works on a standard 1080p or 720p tv you just won’t get that premium image quality and smooth gameplay.

I would recommend buying this over the Xbox series s as the series x is more powerful and will run games way better than the series s but if you are on a budget the series s is ok as well but do know that it does not have a disk drive so you will only be able to play digital copies of games instead of both physical and digital.

Gamepass is also a great feature if you are just joining the Xbox brand as it gives you access to over 100+ games that you can download and play all the way through. Games are added and rotated out on a monthly bases some games stay on for years others get removed after a few months.

Think of it as a Netflix for video games. I recommend getting gamepass ultimate as it gives you access to gamepass and Xbox live gold which give you access to online multiplayer titles. Gamepass ultimate is 15$ a month but for new members you can get it for 1$ for 3 months and pay the 15$ once the 3 month period is over.

If you just joined the Xbox brand and have no games to play gamepass ultimate immediately erases that problem as you can play 100+ games spanding from Xbox 2001 to the Xbox series x/s generation. If you are lucky enough to get your hands on this console get it it’s a great console with a lot of consumer friendly benefits for new and returning players.

I am a huge fan of the New Nintendo 3DS. However one thing to note about refurbished versions, is the hinges aren’t quite as solid as the models initially sold by Nintendo. So be cautious in how you open the system.

I’m not sure why this is, but it is so. I’m not even sure if this is an issue with Nintendo’s refurbishing or Gamestop, or both. Or if anyone else refurbished. Just a heads up as most systems in good condition are refurbs, and almost all original sales are likely to have surface damage.

Solid buttons, great d-pad, this particular unit is in pristine condition externally, which is really hard to find as the exterior rubs off rather easily, requiring a shell (not possible with certain 2DS systems, unfortunately).

The 3D stability feature turns it from a gimmick element to a real asset. It’s actually enjoyable, especially as it keeps it stable if the system moves about a bit. Something the original did not do.

One thing to note about the N3DS as well. Battery life is superior to the N2DS. This is due to screens being far brighter in their base settings on the N2DS. Also bulkier in general (though that hinge on the refurbs.

not sure what they were thinking with that). The analog stick is from a N2DS, not the original N3DS, and that’s a very good thing (I imagine this was common in later refurbishing due to supply and form factor being the same).

Which makes it a smoother, longer lasting experience with a nice velvety feel that doesn’t seem to wear out with excessive use. Aside from that. yeah, I love the games, as the library has a ton of gems.

It natively plays all DS games (best done holding Start/Select when loading as the stretched image has a filter that is just ugly), and it natively plays GBA games (so also GBC and GB), as it has an on board chip.

Also the N3DS (and N2DS), are more powerful systems, and a few games take advantage of this.

The last Nintendo handheld I own was a Gamboy Color back in 1998. I moved on with the Playstation and didn’t continue with Nintendo’s handhelds even since. I did loved the PSP which was a big thing in 2005 which I can listen to music and watch videos on the go before Smartphones.

In that time period I never got a DS, DSi and 3DS since I thought the games from Nintendo are childish and not that hardcore enough but now that I am in my late 30s I want to revisit my childhood. I also heard the E-shop is closing so I might as well download as much of the virtual console games that I can download.

I am shocked when I first got it how good the 3D is and it doesn’t bother me that much. I did sticked an old 32gb micro SD card and all the big downloads I keep getting errors. That was my mistake since I am waiting on a faster new SD card on the mail.

I am downloading old Gameboy color games and SNES games are going to be gone next year. I am liking it so far it just hate that downloading big games like Resident Evil Revelations take forever. I have to remember that the wifi chip in that 3DS is from 2015 also the SD card is from 2013.

Overall I am having a good time with the 3D in most games.

An absolute masterpiece of a game system. Functions perfectly, no wear and tear outside of a few scuffs, buttons feel clean and pristine, circle pad and c-stick both feel responsive and fluid, and battery life is optimal no matter the brightness settings or game played.

Games operate about as good as they can; it’s compatible with all games I own, game card reader properly and quickly reads all cartridges; even some that my other systems won’t read due to minor damage; and games operate at maximum framerate.

A solid upgrade from old 3DS hardware, that’s for sure! All in all, this system is a dream system for me, made reality. As an aspiring Pokemon Ribbon Master, I couldn’t think of a better system to get me there.

And so far, it’s most certainly delivering.

The Playstation 4 comes in different packages and sizes. I currently have the regular size playstation with the Call of Duty Black Ops 3 version. My Playstation has always treated me right. The features I love the most is the fact I can watch Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max and Disney Plus.

Expectations with the product is the fact that it will overtime start to overheat which is a problem. Also if you don’t have enough storage on it you will have to eventually delete other games, screenshots and videos to add a new one.

My time with the Playstation 4 it has always run well. I only started to have issues around September of this year. The problem I have with it is that it tends to “overheat” when I try to play a certain game.

Specifically the game Call of Duty Vanguard. Even when the game isn’t got at all they say I need to let it cool off within 3 seconds or it will turn off instantly. Other than that this game is perfectly fine.

The pros of the PlayStation 5 is the regulator upholds media playback with up to 4K goal, albeit the gaming is restricted to 1080p. You can tweak the regulator dependent on your necessities. Some outsider organizations permit you to buy the regulator that you’ve tweaked the shading plan for an additional expense.

The share button in the controller allows you to capture in-game video and take screenshots that can be shared with friends through the PlayStation network. To play online with others, you need to pay a $50 per year enrollment membership for PlayStation Plus.

PS3 permits clients to play online free of charge through the PlayStation organization. The underlying game library for PS4 is a ho-murmur issue. Aside from the Sony significant select games, PS4 houses games from different designers which are additionally accessible on different control center.

PS4 doesn’t uphold media servers or outsider administrations like PlayOn. It can’t transfer sound video content from your home media server. My overall review is 7. 5/10. The reason it isn’t a 10 is because of the storage, overheating and storage.

I feel as if you’re paying over. 400 dollars you should be able to have over 5 games at one time. Other than those problems you should definitely get the PlayStation 4 if you can’t get the PlayStation 5.

This is my overall review.

Hello! I’m looking to get the PS5 because it is an upgrade from the PS4 allows us to consume 4K graphics versus the PS4 slim which is only 1080p graphics. I got this PS4 slim uncharted 4 bundle edition and I have been using it almost daily for 5-6 years.

Even after years of daily usage it has not shown any problems or technical difficulties. Since it is only 500GB and I mostly download all my games instead of buying the disk, I needed to buy an extra hard drive to plug into the PS4 for more storage space in order to download a large variety of games without ever having to worry about running out of storage space.

I have dozens of games and I enjoy playing each and everyone of them. It is the slim edition so it is also perfect for travel and transport. I’m looking forwards to have the PS5 also because I want to try out the new adaptive triggers which give it fully immersive realistic experience with gameplay.

I play games like GTA 5 which is a open world game, NBA 2k22 which is a basketball game, Uncharted which is a adventure game that came with the PS4 bundle. Overall I would like to VOUCH for playstation and HIGHLY recommend this console due to its originality, great service in gaming, entertainment and much more! 5 stars for quality and versatility.

I absolutely love my new Playstation 4 Pro. I used to play games when I was a child and then took a long break. As an adult now, I recently found myself with some free time and decided to look into gaming.

I watched a bunch of YouTube vides and honestly had mixed feelings. The graphics looked amazing but I wasn’t feeling the games from the videos. I realized I actually needed to play the games to see if I like them.

I researched a bunch of options including Google Stadia, a desktop PC, and XBox and settled on a Playstation 4 Pro since it works well with my 4K TV, has good reviews, is easy to set up, and has a huge user base.

I decided I’d do a 1 week trial and if I wasn’t feeling the games then I’d return it After playing the first game, my mind was made up. This thing is awesome. So far, I’ve only played Assassin’s Creed and I’ve been blown away by the stunning realism, the immersive story, and the out-of-this world graphics and game mechanics.

It’s such a blast playing it and I feel l’ve been immersed in a whole new world. There are a bunch of additional games I can’t wait to try out as well. This is honestly the best purchase I made this year and one of the best I’ve made in my entire life.

I’m giving the 2nd production line (mine is stamped July 2021) Playstation 5 a 5-star rating. The 1st boot set-up was very detailed & proper. It comes with a Sony designed Playstation 5 game that teaches you all about the console, hardware, & controller in a fun visual game.

It’s a large game as well (10 GB). The controller is amazing; built in mic & speaker, touch senor pad, & the standard controller operations. Very nice. I am able to hook-up in the back USB port (there are 2 in the back) a SSD 500GB Crucial for storing PS4 games & apps (PS4 games & apps are playable) (PS5 games can be stored on my Crucial SSD but, need to be moved to the PS5 SSD for playability).

Very nice feature! The Home Screen(s) for the PS5 are very nice, it was a lot of fun getting familiar with this game console. BEST GAMES – Diablo 2 Resurrected, Call of Duty Black-Ops COLD WAR, Battlefield 2042, ELDEN RING, Grand Turismo 7.

I mean what can I say that you may already not know? I did not own a PS4, so coming into this purchase there is a backlog of PS4 games for me to play while I wait in-between PS5 releases. The backwards compatibility with PS4 games was a must for me, hence why I needed the console with a disc drive.

There is even an enhancement on much of the games as well, so it’s even a double bonus, not only do I have access to previous titles but many of them look better! The overall performance has been great, the internal SSD on this beast is really a step ahead in the console world.

Load times are there of course but most of the time you wont really notice. I guess the only downside is that games these days are quite large and the 825GB on it will fill up quick. That said, I have a hard time holding that against the console, if they were to put massive amount s of storage in them the cost would go up quite a big as well.

its a fair trade off in my opinion.
