I've found it interesting that knockoff SNES and NES classics are pervasive not just online these days, but and brick and mortar malls. For the unknowing parent buying for their kids, they seem like the better offer, they usually list having hundreds of games rather than the couple dozen with the legitimate consoles. At a glance, they look official, having similar styling to both the hardware and the classic Nintendo box look.

They are the better offer. Why should a parent care if some company's getting royalties for a game they released 30 years ago?
