I think i started to belive this is a real clone after i have comparison some picture of a real one.

First the console:
You can compare and see that the Nintendo Entertainment System text is slightly placed higher up on the clone and numbers 1 and 2 on the controller port are placed differently.




Controller:
You can see that color of Nintendo text on the sticker its slightly bit different and muddy and the cut of the sticker especially around the buttons on the controller is not as precise cut as on the original and A and B are placed a little bit differently.




Maby now i order one or two for fun even if i have the original.

And i think the bar code is differently, now i own the european version so maby the us version have a different code.

Thank you for the pictures especially after I couldn't share mine earlier.

What I have on the way looks just like that and I will expect it's a clone as per those pics.

Still interested to see what the on-board software is like, and if it's Raspberry Pi or something else.

What these factories usually do is create everything but with cheaper materials, so that's consistent there.

I also have the EU version at home so will do a full comparison when it comes to it, and hopefully get it modded.

i have noticed some difference to the connector pins on the controller port to.

If it's those crappy 9 pin connectors that's a shame.  I bought that little composite Famicom Mini clone recently and the controllers alone were awful, but combined with the pins (which didn't align fully) it meant constant re-plugging.

Its a wii connector but i saw it look different inside, i am shore its working as the same as the original.
Yes i have to but the Nes mini clone with 500 games built in with the ugly 9 pin sega port ;D but my controller works alright...........for the price ;)

I have order 2 sets now even if my order not include box and i pay $69 each.

Its gonna be interesting to see what hardware and software that inside, i guess from the video that is type of Pi board inside because of the slow boot that take 11-12s to startup.

But i am satisfied if its only the 30 games and that have hdmi and its compatible with the third party wireless controller that i have. :)

Everything more than that i take as a bonus :)

Have you get yours yet? :)


Bebop

somebody that heard or know something more about  this clone? i'm still waiting for my order to arrive.

Any word on getting yours, Bebop? This thing has me insanely curious.

Mine will be here in a just under a week now :)

By the way these have been widely picked up on Instagram among other places and I'm sure the price has gone up and will continue to go up as they get more interest.  But I haven't seen any full reviews yet - this thread has the most information (in English) on the web it seems.

mine too are on its way :)


These guys just regurgitated the effort I put into a post on NeoGAF (which is probably the source of all the minor media attention): http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1402501 They don't have any more access to them than you or I.

It's funny, I phrased the GAF post as a warning to collectors but like 85% of the replies are "yes, please". It's honestly eating me up to know more about its functionality.

Price has gone up, but I think people are generally receptive to these, and I really hope Nintendo do make more in future.  Maybe they are embarrassed that is seems more popular than the Switch?

I'm not sure where you're seeing the price has gone up other than eBay resellers and elsewhere. But I'm pretty sure this device is priced specifically for resellers to enjoy massive margins on.
