  • I picked up a used NES Classic at a thrift store a few weeks ago cheap. It looked like the real thing until I went to use it. Yesterday I got a real NES Classic and I compare the two.

    Both boxes are real, the one on the left with the seal bottom right is from last year's run, and the one with the rating bottom right is from the recent release. Looks like someone dropped a clone in a real box and kept the original system.

    The kid playing Pacman was pretty good at it. It's strange how a lot of us were so good at these older games as kids but they seem harder as adults. Lol.

      I think it has to do with time and what type of gaming you do now. If you stayed playing these retro games your responses would be as good.

    I just picked up an nes classic and i'm pretty sure it's a fake. The light is white, super Mario sounds like trash, tecmo bowl doesn't work, i can't use the save state, change screen sizes, use factory reset, can only pick english from the language choices, controls lag a bit to respond. i'm sending it back. thanks so much for this video. I feel justified telling the seller it's not a real nes console.

    I got a NES Classic at Target for $59.99 and it looked so real but, win I went to set it up it had no HDMI just a AV plug for AV cables and win I turned it on it had on the screen 600 n 1 games. I was so mad I took it back and then went to game stop and got a real one there. It makes me sick that people are spending hard earned money on knock off crap. You would think there would be some law about this seeing that the fake one I got was a Target of all places you would think Target would at least know not to sell fakes or know what there suppliers have the real ones or not.

      Target resealed it after getting it returned and the lady didnt care that it was resealed noticably ?
      Or target purposely sealed it very well to hide the fact that it was a return ?
      Thanks.

    I don't know if you noticed, but there's also a difference in the OS in general. For example, the OS on the real thing scrolls left and right as you go through the games. With the bootleg, it uses what I'm going to call "static pages," since there's no actual scrolling animation going on.

    I got the same thing with the music slow-down off Amazon. The thing looked so real. Box and all. I suspected it of being fake and they were good about refunding me. I see that my local Walmart has them in stock again and I thought about picking one up but I’m almost afraid they might be fake also and WM simply doesn’t know. Thanks for the video. Yours was the first I watched which showed the same sound problem.

      Still looking myself. The only way to get one right now is if you find a scalper who is selling it for $200-$300 or by buying a used one on eBay, which is also tricky because postings include the knock off consoles.
