Thank you to Innex Inc. for providing me with product, free of charge, for review. All opinions are my own.
I grew up playing video games on some really great systems. My parents purchased them used from garage sales at rock bottom prices but we didn’t care. I can still remember our very first….the Coleco. (Side note, I just googled and it debuted in 1982 but we didn’t own one until about 1989.) From there, we moved on to a regular Nintendo. We finally only got a Super Nintendo when we were old enough to buy it ourselves as teenagers. So my siblings and I grew up playing the classics. Mario Brothers, Paper Boy, PacMan, Monopoly, and a few others we picked up along the way. When our systems would eventually break, I was quite sad. My husband and I actually owned a Super Nintendo till just a couple years ago when it fell off the shelf and broke for good. So when I came across Innex Inc. and learned that they offer a console that would allow me to relive my childhood, I was super excited.
We were sent the SR3 Super RetoTRIO Console. This system encompasses the ability to play Regular Nintendo, Super Nintendo, and Sega Genesis Games all in one compact system. Also included are two controllers. Thankfully, my cousin had a few doubles of classic games and my brother still had our old Super Nintendo games at my parents house. I’m still hunting for our regular Nintendo game collection but I’m afraid those may be long gone.
The system was easy to hook up and my husband had it up and running in just a few minutes. The kids and I got busy playing Mario Brothers (the original). While my husband couldn’t understand how I knew where everything was still, I was in Heaven enjoying something from Yesteryear. My kids have especially been thrilled with this system and keep saying how it’s so much better than the Wii. While we do limit the time they are allowed to play, I love offering time on the SR3 as a reward for doing well with schoolwork, good behavior, and showing good character traits.
I think the SR3 Super RetroTRIO Console would make a great gift for everyone. Adults who grew up with these systems can appreciate the fun and quality of the games from way back when while young kids can be introduced to simpler times.

I’m a city girl turned country by my awesome husband and we have three busy boys and two darling daughters. I love spending time with my family, reading Karen Kingsbury novels, and catching up with friends while our kiddos have play dates. I’m blessed beyond measure and can’t wait to see what God has in store.

Im an only child and video games were a big part of my upbringing. I still love them to this day especially being an ’85 baby. I love them so much that I have a tattooed sleeve of the Super Mario villains : )
I love looking back at some of these tech posts and looking for a reduced price on the featured products for gifts, since they have been out a while. I didn’t grow up with games like this, so these reviews do help.
