Subject: My review
Frank_Brasil Thursday, October 22, 2009 4:40 PM Reply
Hi. I will post my review here. I will do this because DX never publishes my reviews when I give bad ratings to the product, and this is the case.
Here is goes:

Pros:
-Easy to use, just insert roms in BIN format inside the SD cart and you are set.
-Nice menu music :)

Cons:
-Bad image output quality. The colors are VERY strong. It gives headache. If you try to adjust your tv,reducing the color option, the image gets very dark.
-Sound problems, some parts of music and sound effects are not played correctly.
-Build quality of buttons is bad. Sometimes you have to press them really strong for them to work.
-It looks that it will break apart anytime.

Bottomline:
-At first it looked like a good buy, but now I would not recommend this to anyone.:(

Frank_Brasil , maybe you are too critical to all products , so DX never publishes your reviews :)

It is only $22 including shipping , what a good deal !

romaing , and we are waiting for your review ....

Probably I am too critic, but I think the other potentially buyers need to know exactly what they are buying. So the good and the bad reviews are necessary, unfortunately DX only publishes the good reviews(in the most part).

OK, so I got it a few days ago. I'm quite happy with it but very unhappy with my TV... I think the Composite input is bad. I'm hopping to change TV soon and see if the quality is better.
One game didn't work very well for me, Ecco the Dolphin; unresponsive controls etc. I should try it again anyway.
In any case this thing is a steal at 22$. I've already ordered one more for a gift.

Another thing: European-only games won't run on this. I guess it's taking either US or Japan games only.

@romaing: just use the US version.

Also, there are many programs for break the protection, so you can use nearly all games for this 16 bit console :D
