Total disappointment

I'm still waiting to see if this works. It still had batteries in it (so I'm not even sure if they're new) which completely corroded the batteries and battery compartment. My husband spent the last 45 minutes (still working on it) cleaning it up. Also, the packaging looks terrible, see photos. It was barely connected and creased in several places. I'm just surprised since it was a "Revain Prime" item. and not cheap for what it is. Fingers crossed that it works! Totally disappointed so far!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Speed

What a piece of shit!

Remember how great this game was when we were kids? How much fun did you have and it's SO exciting to see it back on the shelves and can't wait for your kids to have the same happy memories of it?! Well they won't! Pads aren't buttons, they're seniors - a kind of cheap imitation of a touchscreen - and they don't work properly! Sometimes you touch the pad and it doesn't register, and sometimes you don't touch it and it registers! This is a totally disappointing game! Seriously, it doesn't costโ€ฆ

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • safety

no options suitable for portable gaming

i love simon and it's actually very cute and funny but it has some bugs and lacks options. First of all, it's quite big, I expected it to be smaller. It looks good, has a small screen with very simple animations and has 3 different game modes that are very interesting - the original, one where the player makes moves and one where each player chooses a different color. It only has one power/option button and four colored buttons that are touch-only, which I thought was lame, but it's actuallyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • great for a small house
Cons
  • i won't say anything

An old childhood favorite and better than I expected

I got the original Simon in the mid 80's when I was a little kid and my sister and I wore it out trying to outperform each other. I wanted to pass the same joy on to my little four year old son and decided to buy this updated version of Revain. I read a lot of reviews and was a bit skeptical to buy it because many commented that the colors use a new touch sensor that isn't as sensitive or it crashes often. (For those who don't know how the game works, it first lights up one of the four arcs onโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Hard to say

You screwed up Simon

I have Simon's original game from 1979. This new version pales in comparison. Here is a list of all the bad things in this new version.1. The original Simon accelerates after completing sequences of 5, 9, and 13 signals. This new version stays at the same slow speed no matter how high you go.2. The tones of the Original Simon are musically harmonious. When you played them on a musical instrument, they actually formed a major chord, much like horn tones. In game 2, where you create your ownโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • No performance
