While I agree with you (having just played a couple of nes games on an original console a couple of hour ago) aren't you missing the point of the quote? This is better than the original in a very specific way: it allows multiplayer on a single monitor. Noone is saying it's better in absolute terms...

I think it actually may be though. In terms of digital electronics, this IS the original hardware... But with added multiplayer. So unless the feature of multiplayer is a downgrade, then it is better in absolute terms.
