Customers are satisfied with the detail of the product. They mention that the visual and sound emulation is accurate, well done, and exquisite. The console's graphics are sharp and crisp, and the games run smoothly. The emulation is comparable to other systems available in the high fidelity category. Outputting at 720p affords amazing clarity of this mini console' graphics, and an amazing representation of the TurboGrafx 16 console. The picture looks good with 720P input on a 4K TV.

Excellent Mini Console!

Excellent Mini Console!
I currently own most of the mini consoles, and this one is one of my favorites. There are lots of great games and some gems from japan only and the interface, sound, emulation are all top notch. Unfortunately on the small downside there are 1 or 2 games you can't really play unless you can read Japanese and it also does not come with an extra controller, it doesn't affect me much though (I use 3rd party 8bitdo ones) but would have been nice to have 2 in the box. Also it doesn't include an official usb power supply adapter, the official USB adapters are hard to find and expensive (i paid $60 Canadian) and technically you can use any usb adapter you find or just plug it in to any usb port but for collectors sake and to avoid problems (I've read of consoles bricking due to using certain power supplies) and if you can find one and are willing to pay the crazy price (like me!) then pick up an official usb power adapter for this thing (so you can brag you have the 'complete' official system and also avoid any potential issues and have peice of mind). The build quality is pretty good, feels strong and has a nice texture, it is a little light feeling though, the wires on the back are a bit of a pain to get in with the snap off cover. So far i've had lots of fun playing this thing and highly recommended if your wanting to play some old school turbografx 16 games and if you can find one for retail price (i was lucky enough to get mine for Amazon.com retail price of $99 US) before they sold out and the price went up) defiantly grab one, totally worth it and tons of fun!
