Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
Was very close to buying one, but glad that I held off a couple years to buy the switch instead. I enjoyed playing it, but not can see that this system wasn't worth the upgrade.
The two screens was such a cool feature. I wanted one, but only got to play my younger cousins. As with much of these ratings, my jealousy gives it an extra star boost.
Have only played a handful of times. I am an XBox and Nintendo guy. Really slick and fun gaming experience with a catalogue that seems more tailored for story mode games.
Not a playstation guy, but this was a system I wanted. The game catalogue incredible and I felt like I missed out. Loved going to friends to play their PS3.
I love all game boy systems. This one was fun to play. I didn't own one, but my friend did and I always had a good time playing it. I like that it's backwards compatible with the other cartridges, and I'm still on the hunt to catch on of these for a decent price.
Motion controls. This system was the party system in our university. The game library and ability to bring people together for silly fun is worth the five stars.
I was a nintendo guy but playing Crash Bandicoot or Tomb Raider at my brother in laws was such an amazing time. If I had the money, I would have owned both systems, but it really was a great system.
This felt like a SNES in your hand with a tiny screen. Loved this machine. I remember playing sonic, micro machines and aladdin on this. All the accessories with this machine were a blast too.
This is my go-to retro console. Even still, if I want to have a retro gaming night with friends, this will get pulled out and the box of cartridges. Such a great system. Dumb controller but great system.
I never had a SNES until I was an adult. My grandmother had one, and so did my cousin, and I would sneak over there to play it whenever I could. Such a solid gaming experience. The pure amount of classics created for this makes it a 5-star system.
I jealously saw my friends have these with their pokemon in colour. My envy will make this a 5-star system until I die. I have one now for my collection and love it.
Halo.... But I also loved tons of other games on this system. The fat controller was okay when I was using it, but going back to it is mind boggling haha.
I loved this system. I bought my first one like 8 years ago, and scratched discs are a frustration. Moving back to cartridges was a solid move and improvement by the switch.
