This what introduced me to nes titles when i was a kid growing up (2000s) we had a vcd player that has a cd with 300 bootleg nes titles in it.... I remember that vcd has controller ports on its back and the controller looks like colored white sega genesis 6-button controller, it was hilarious but at the same time nostalgic for me .. it was actually cheap in my country( Philippines) back in those days (around 40$ including the vcd player, the vcd with roms plus 2 controllers)

I'm still amazed that many stores in the world still sell this kind of products, especially in Italy where the copyright laws are actually very strong

i really wanted to know what the copy button did :( but at least the dvd player is region free and can play movies from a usb stick or sd but something tells me it's not gonna play mkv's :) edit: after looking up what the copy function does, all it allows you to do is copy files from a disc to the sd or usb stick so for example copy an avi from a disc to usb stick and does not let you copy an actual audio or dvd disc.
