Never been so disappointed, spent my money and it's the worse product I've ever used, fake garbage quality gameboy. You're better off spending money on aliexpress for $5, DO NOT BUY!!!!
Scam company that sells awful products, do not purchase from them unless you like to throw money away.
Beware Shop Retro Bros is a SCAM. They will take your hard earned money, and give you faulty fake gameboys in return! Order 3? Tough luck, maybe you’ll get 1 at the most. Having issues? They won’t help you or respond to emails. Want to cancel your order cause you realized it’s a scam, they’ll charge you a large restocking fee! Tried calling the 1-800 customer service number, it’s always busy! They turn up every year trying to sell bootleg gameboys to unsuspecting parents as Christmas gifts. Every year they change their name, it’s been Try Retro Bros, Get Retro Bros, Tiny Tendos etc. Save your money, Save your time, Save yourself. Skip placing an order, you’ll only lose. They claim to be based out of the United States, but they are a Chinese company drop shipping fake faulty gameboys. Don’t trust their website!!
"Shop Retro Bros" is a fake company, and a SCAM. It's true they have rebranded to try and trick people. Before they were "Try Retro Bros", they removed their original website and company name to start their scam again. I have reported them to facebook and google as well. They pay for sponsored ADs, but don't fall for it, its all fake and you will over pay for a bootleg product, that you might not even get. Report this website, and leave them reviews so you can help others avoid this problem.
