I am very happy with my new retropie console. I am glad to know that 20 years after leaving the community, there are still people out there to preserve this piece of history. Thank you for the excellent communication and work! I will purchase again!

Also the 64 controllers i bought last year that were not compatible. They work perfectly with the upgrade Platinum SD card. I'm more than satisfied loving it

I was one the fence, back and forth whether or not to buy GameBox Hero. Was it legit, did it work? Ultimately my answers were YES and YES!!



My unit shipped out literally right after I purchased it Online. Due to the COVID delays by the USPS I had to sit and wait for it to arrive a tad later than it was supposed to.



Upon receipt I was pleased with the contents of the box. Unit, controllers, controller wires and the most important of the bunch, the instructions. Setup was completed in under 5 minutes.



Now for the juicy details.....



Wow, was I amazed at the on screen menu and amount of games shown. It is a little different seeing them all there on the TV as opposed to a listing Online. Total excitement.



Is it worth buying? Yes

Does it have issues? Yes, but so do all gaming systems



My cons - while browsing the game menus, the scrolling locks and keeps going on its own here and there.

The controllers are a tad wonky and I will be upgrading soon to something else other than what came with the unit.



Pros - tons of games. And I mean tons! You will find things you never knew existed.

Loads fast. No real waiting for the game to start.

Takes up no space on a TV stand.

Very user friendly menu.



That bout suns it up.



Hope this helps! I know I love my unit!!!

My lovely wife gifted me this wonderful little machine for my birthday last year. Let me tell you, I was absolutely blown away with both how many of the old games from my childhood and youth can be found on here as well the vast amount of hours that can be lost losing one’s self in the treasure trove of content through games I’ve never played little own heard of.



However, my review isn’t to sell you on the machine. If you want that there is more than enough content and testimonials for you to skim through on others individuals who have left reviews. No friend, I’m here to tell you about my experience after the sale. Months, in fact almost a full year after. I did some digging on the game box hero website one day, because I really wanted to enjoy the machine as I do the majority of the other consoles I own…that is to say from any chair or couch in my living room regardless of distance from wireless controllers. Come to find out there are instructions on how to do exactly that in the FAQ of their website. However, despite following the instructions EXACTLY I was able to move around within the menus of a wireless controller, but once I got to the title screen of the game itself nothing worked! I was frustrated. I sent an email to the company explaining my dilemma, not expecting to hear anything back. If I did, it would be a wild goose hunt or cost me extra money or both. Isn’t that what we’ve come to expect from any company nowadays? To my surprise boy was I wrong. An associate named Mike emailed me back shortly. Would you know, that man worked tirelessly with me for about a week by e-mail day and night to resolve my issue. Step-by-step he told what to do and how to do it. I felt like I was the only customer they had. Bar none it was the best customer service experience I’ve ever had. Mike really cared. I was never changed extra, put on hold, never heard from again, or felt like a number. To me, that experience meant more than the fun I have with the machine itself. I’m a disabled veteran and this little machine takes my mind off pain and other things helping to get through the day. But Mike and those that work for this company care about people. And that matters more.

Game Box Hero was a great find. I probably put enough money into Punch Out! to buy my own machine. I haven’t played this game in years but am enjoying again from my man cave/home office. The selection of games is incredible — just about everything I played either at the arcade or on Nintendo or C64 is now all housed in a system about the same size as a SNES cartridge. Game Box Hero truly delivers and won’t disappoint someone seeking a classic gaming experience.

The Game Box Hero is by far the best purchase I have ever made! With countless hours of playing childhood favorites and classics, the value vs cost of this system is unmatched by any other product! I highly recommend The Game Box Hero to any fan of old school gaming.

What can I say but this has brought back so many memories and created new ones. The ease of being able to relive my childhood and teen memories in the comfort of a little box, just awesome!! Great also to share with my daughter.

this is the best one i've ever used works perfect the games r all really good work perfect and i say everyone should get one great for kids collectors or just some good friends looking for a good time with retro games

I really have enjoyed playing the old school games with my kids and passing on my love of good old fashioned side scrollers with them. It’s fun to play the games that I felt were impossible as kid now as an adult and feel like they’re even more difficult!

The Platinum edition Game Box Hero is amazing. It has all of the games I love and want to play! Brings me right back to my childhood and all of the great memories which I can now pass along to my children. Fun for the whole family! Thank you Game Box Hero.
