James Field no one has said that,but you.the graphics are terrible.if that's what you moron is referring to.it's a KNOCKOFF.I hope your brain hurts forever.
So my friends and I were talking about the Nintendo and she was telling me about her mother’s and how it had over 100 games, and I assumed that it was the Nintendo classic with games added in. So last night she plugs it in, and low and behold it’s the COOLBABY.
My girl wound up with one of these, so whenever she comes over we play mario or whatever else we find and have a generally good time on it. But I love janky systems with friends.
F to those who fell for the fake consoles accidentally and burn those that did intensionally in a fire Edit:well I spoke way too soon (screw the fire part)
I don't know. Mario 14 has its moments, such as the naked humanoid enemies which fire white gelatinous blobs at you from their groins while they hip thrust...
This reminds me of that time my mom came back from a trip in Thailand with a GBA cartridge that advertised 62 games in one. It actually was a blessing cause even it was very rough interface wise it actually had 62 classics from NES and SNES completely playable. In 2002 I had the chance to try those games like a kid in the 90s. I'm so grateful for that. I just wish I could find again the cartridge :(
I love that this isn't just video that rips this chinese NES clone apart but actually a fair review. These clone consoles are always somehow super fascinating and i just dunno why. Something about the dodgy quality, the messed up game collections and the slightly different design of the console itself, just really always makes me wanna pick these things up and collect them for the odd complete-package that they are. Same with these handheld variations. It's just sad that these clones most likely won't age well since they use flash memory instead of actual "burned" ROM chips. So you may not wanna leave them in the box for too long but power them up at least a few times a year to keep the flash memory charged.
14:29 Bootleggers actually reversed the color scheme of that bootleg game, the original version looks way better. It was a game released for Dendy (famicom ripoff which use NOAC chips) unofficially, and actually, it has a much larger cart case so you cannot even insert it into NES unless taking apart the cart and get the PCB out.
But does it accept the genises as an input method? Sure you can plug it in but would it accept the inputs? Or will it be broken like using a ds4 on a phone
@@theofficialchannelofoffici7962 Not sure about this particular Coolbaby, but I tried it on one of my own variants and everything was broken. The face buttons acted like half of the Dpad and I think the Dpad acted like one of the face buttons, and Start acted like Up...something along those lines. Impossible to use.
There's an italian website that is advertising it on Facebook as well, showing a video of an actual NES Mini in action instead of the Coolbaby. I'm spamming your video on their page.
OfficerFourMan I just did my biggest facepalm yet. I did it so hard that I gave myself a nosebleed. And I’m being dead serious. I gave myself a nosebleed.
As a collector of knockoff games and consoles, this console appeals to me. Especially since they included a bunch of homebrews and demakes that I've collected in cartridge form and am still trying to collect. I was sold at the Plants vs Zombies demake. Anyone know if this can be modded to run other Famicom.NES ROMs?
I know where to get lads of game consoles like this it isnt exactly the cool baby one but it's called the anniversary edition entertainment system and it has the exact same screen and games as this video on it and it looks identical to the cool baby

Well, they have the same controller ports the Mega Drive/Genesis uses (or even the Amstrad Mega PC, if you want to play with a $70 controller on a $10 system). Master system controllers probably won't work (no Start button).
8:48 Oh boy! Ooh boy!!! This game has a very infamous history! Back when this bootleg came out a Russian gaming show actually believed that this was an official Mario game! But it gets better, because when the same show took a look at Joe & Mac they (and I wish I was making this up) thought that Joe & Mac was a *bootleg* of Mario 16! Like... WHAT?!?
Hmph! Piece of junk Americans, stealing our video games about Italian plumbers fighting off dinosaurs in the prehistoric era with axes, and replacing the plumbers with stupid and completely unrealistic cavemen!
@@Kiruasu or just hack a real NES classic and download hacks for it. playing pirated roms on an emulator is better legally than using a ripoff with a shitton of pirated games
"Wouldn't it be cool if the had the Super Mario engine, but random characters from other Nintendo universes just showed up out of nowhere?" Ah, you mean Super Mario Crossover!
Fun fact: That NES Sonic game is actually a ROM hack of another NES Sonic game, which was a hack of Somari, which was a hack of another NES Sonic game. And someone made a hack of the Sonic game you played and made it good.

I got a bootleg one at the mall for $80. I didn't know it was bootleg till after I bought it. It came with like 630 games . And I love it.
4:18 hell yeah dude... it took me a while to figure out what was going on above the castle doorways, but then realized it was the “Alice Cooper” game and they said “IM 18” Nice.
I grew up in India, and as a kid, before the mid 2000's, we used to have bootleg gaming consoles everywhere which could play NES and SNES games. I remember playing Mario 16 as a kid. Good days.
I'm shocked that the console actually has that many games. Usually, its just Super Mario Bros, Battle city, Lode runner, etc, repeated till the infinite (After the second/third menu, its like Mario XLD, Mario ADC or made up names like that). I might getting one.
My only criticism is that you called sprites "models". Otherwise, this was a great video showing off a product that most of us never would have known existed at all.
My mother is a hairdresser and has worked at the same place for nearly 20 years and has been friends with 2 Thai ladies who have been there b4 her. They had given her a GBA cartridge with 160 games for my own GBA. It had a lot of these Mario knock offs that I played because I didn't know any better lol. But it had fun games, some of them emulatons of original games that actually worked well. Played a lot of Super Mario, Arkinoid, Castlevania, and Excite Bike etc. Never owned my own console until my late teens, just had my GBA with 160 and a plug and play throughout my childhood lol
The 9-pin controller is used on Atari 2600 and Sega Genesis but not Atari 5200 (as a certain blatant nerd whose middle name is AVGN would be the first to tell you).
This is one of the funniest reviews I've seen all week. Thanks for the laughs, Rerez😆 I've watched your videos for a couple years now and I thought I had already subscribed. I'll make sure to do so.
I rooted around the site and I have to say that, as far as cheap knock-off consoles go, their prices are pretty reasonable. Seem to be free shipping, too.
when I saw this video, I literally cried. so last year, I wanted a nes classic of course, then they stopped making it. my mom didn't want me to be sad, so she went online and was looking for an alternative. being a 49 year old mom she had no idea what a "bootleg" thing was. so after months of looking she found something. it was this console. come Christmas day, I unwrapped it. I was filled with laughter and sadness at the same time. I played a lot of it, not because I liked it, just because I wanted to find awful and weird games. fast forward to today, and I see this. (actually I saw the cool baby 2 video, recognized the name then saw this video under it) and I am amazed. also, I waited anxiously for the entire video for shane to point out that a ton of games that was on the coolbaby were on the worst plug and play 2 video
Ah yes, the coolbaby. Just like I asked my parents to get me when I was a kid. Man, some really weird choices made by this company with the hardware here too.
Until recently, I always used to think that these devices that try to trick you into buying them didn’t make any sense as no one would actually fall for these. But then the other day my mum brought a PSP game instead of PS1 game as a gift (I don’t mind though, I’m happy with it as I’ve always wanted a UMD to go in my collection.) and then I nearly brought Streets of Rage for the Master System instead of the Mega Drive. While I love the Master System version too, it’s not what I needed as I don’t have a Master System yet. I honestly have no idea how I missed it, it had the classic Master System grid box design too. Luckily, I realised before the staff had even got it off the shelf for me, and I definitely would’ve realised when I looked at the box in my hand, but if I didn’t know what I was looking for (not that I ever would, but my mum for example could easily make the mistake I nearly made as she wouldn’t.) then I could’ve messed it up.
I grew up with cartridges like this. I had never seen an original Nintendo console or cartridges ever in my childhood. Hell, I didn't even know Nintendo was a thing.
Lots and lots of folks in developing countries, so I found when I looked it up, grew up with a PolyStation as their "NES" systems. I actually kind of want one. But the original. Not v3. That thing sucks XD
These are classic hacks! I've played most of these in the early 2000s and I'm positive I played one of them back in 1998 on my 386 running Nesticle. Oh, memories! I feel like a lot of these hacks are there because of how Nesticle used to let you mess around with the sprites.
Oh my gosh, I was rummaging through my room, and I found out that I have not one, but TWO of these bootleg consoles. My dad found them at garage sales and mistook them for nes classics. Although they don’t have COOLBABY on them, but just “entertainment system”.
By the way Some of knock off games about Mario exilsted in NES bootleg that had a huge popularity in Russia during 90's. It is Dendy. Mario 10, Super Mario 14, Mario 16, Super Mario World 9 preety much were considered as a legitimate Mario games.
You are able to use the original Nintendo controllers, you just need an adapter. EDIT: These Atari-style ports have been used in Chinese clones of NES since 80s and are used to this day, an example we can see here.
I have an updated version of this thing that boots immediately to a full list. No language screen, no game group screen, just a full 500-in-1 list instantly. Not bad. Also, it's not called the Coolbaby, it's called Mini Game Anniversary Edition Entertainment system. Games include the crazy hacks and all else you showed here pretty much. A couple of the Mario hacks were kind of fun, and Balloon Mario Fighter is kind of a nice twist up :) but the creepy hacks...nah. I have the same Pacman3 hack from your second video, except my Pac Man is green so the eye is less visible. The stages are pretty fun, and I got as close to beating the broken stage as possible playing just earlier tonight; there were like four or six dots left, but some of them were at the right edge of the screen lined up vertically and I could only go horizontally there. The other few were on the far left, and heading in their direction would send me into that "trapped" zone just before reaching them. I used the power dots to eat all the ghosts, and since there was no ghost house in that level, they circled around the top endlessly making that crazy noise XD
I've seen this video a few different times and just now noticed the game Alice Cooper. I really wanna know what that is. I hope it's some really bad ROM hack of Holy Hiver EDIT: I looked it up. It's just a glitchy hack of the original Super Mario Bros where they palite swaped Mario and changed some of the sprites. They did make the Kupa's black Widows though so I'm happy.
Nice to see you here, love your channel! Btw. there are a ton of nes classic clones, one which uses a clone version of the software which runs on an original nes classic which just looks a bit different. And there's a snes classic clone which plays nes games ;) Just check out aliexpress and search for "8 bit game console" to see a lot of funny clones.
I went through Aliexpress not realizing it wasnt hdmi too. Got a good price though. $28! Also, HDMI doesn't make much difference when we are talking below 480p.
Whether HDMI matters or not kinda depends on how the HDMI is implemented. And the console you're talking about. Most consoles ran at 240p, which is fine on a CRT, and passable on older LCD televisions, but most capture hardware and modern TV's completely choke on interpreting this correctly. (partly because 240p is an out of spec hack that doesn't follow official standards for TV signals. CRT televisions don't care because they're relatively literal in how they interpret the signal, but anything which interprets a TV signal digitally has to explicitly understand this out of spec format, or create a really big mess.) For SNES and quite a few other consoles there's also the issue of RF vs Composite, vs S-video vs RGB. Each of these represents a different way of sending a signal to a TV, and each one is a decent leap in quality. Composite to RGB in particular is an impressive leap in quality. However, very few people ever saw these consoles run at better than composite. RGB was generally only an option in Europe, because of RGB Scart being available on many televisions, but even with this being the case, few people back in the day actually had the cables to use RGB scart. (composite to Scart adapters were standard issue for European SNES and N64 consoles, and even the gamecube an wii, but that doesn't give you RGB, just lets you use composite through a SCART connector.) HDMI prevents issues with modern televisions completely mangling 240p signals from old consoles, and also basically gives you the equivalent quality jump from Composite to RGB into the bargain. It's not essential, depending on what kind of equipment you have, but it does make life slightly easier if you're using modern televisions or monitors...
The games are listed by alphabet but by 拼音(pin yin) the chinese whay of typing character. For example Super Mario Bros. in Chinese is 超级马里奥兄弟 (Chaoji Maliao xiongdi) and whould be listed under C.
I remember way back when, My mom got me something just like this. Not the CoolBaby, but the exact same piece of hot garbage with a different name & rom loaded in. The thing broke within a month. I couldn't have cared less. Also, It's weird having him be so calm here...
