The colours of this particular one are absolutely perfect, placing it as a decent homage to the console without being a straightforward copy. In fact, this is my personal favourite console of all time for various reasons. Nostalgic 80s retro bliss at its finest.Īh, this definitely takes us back. This one would be especially great to own given the fact that you can get the Nintendo Switch Online NES games to play on it.
