You are not dreaming, it's really real and nobody expect that happened. Nintendo announced the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition (Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System in Europe) today as a surprise. This small console includes the console itself (which is a replica of the original NES console) with HDMI output so you can play it on your big TV, an controller (which is also a replica of the original controller) that can also been use for the Wii and Wii U and 30 games including Super Mario Bros., Kirby's Adventure, Metroid, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong and Pac-Man. Here is the full list of the 30 games Balloon Fight BUBBLE BOBBLE Castlevania Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Donkey Kong Donkey Kong Jr. DOUBLE DRAGON II: THE REVENGE Dr. Mario Excitebike FINAL FANTASY Galaga GHOSTS 'N GOBLINS GRADIUS Ice Climber Kid Icarus Kirby's Adventure Mario Bros. MEGA MAN 2 Metroid NINJA GAIDEN PAC-MAN Punch-Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream StarTropics SUPER C Super Mario Bros. Super Mario Bros. 2 Super Mario Bros. 3 TECMO BOWL The Legend of Zelda Zelda II: The Adventure of Link The console will be released in both North America and Europe on November 11th for 60$. The controller will also be sold separatly for 9.99$. The North American version will have an AC adapter, while the European version (including UK) won't have one, but there is a USB port in the box. http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/07/nintendo_entertainment_system_nes_classic_edition_coming_this_november_ships_with_30_games Personally I think this is a good sales move but 30 games? You're kidding me. The entire GoodNES 3.23b set is something like 500MB, that could easily fit on modern hardware. Also, I can't understand why Nintendo refuse to sell the adaptor in Europe, is it some kind of legislation/legal or other issue? They don't sell 3DS with chargers anymore in Europe either... Also, loads of games are missing that were well received. CONTRA, Duck Hunt, RC Pro AM, other Mega Man and Final Fantasy games, Balloon Fight, Metal Gear... and they're also not offering extra services to get more games. (For RCPAM they probably would be refused rights though.) Contra being missing is also a big letdown. Great idea, poorly executed in my opinion. It's basically a VC machine. Probably the versions will use latest revisions of region specific games, sadly this means SMB1 music will also still run at double speed in EU regions, for instance. http://rhcafe.us.to/?page=t&id=192 original thread ____________________ Jamie Dignam |

Some friends on Facebook was talking about this, I have an original NES in my brother's closet with nine games, got it on eBay last year for $160.00. But I'll be sure to pick this up when it comes out.  ____________________ My Linktree |

Posted by Googie Sounds pretty reasonable for an NES actually Googie, glad to hear you're getting this too, which is nice. It'd be fun to mod it so we could have ROM hacks  ____________________ Jamie Dignam |

Oh yeah, I see this getting modded, might be easier to do than the Wii if I'm not mistaken. ____________________ My Linktree |

I understand why you would want to release this.
However, won't people who are retro freaks: *Already have collected the originals *Played them on emulators This is a basic emulator, although could be used for a purpose like introducing retro games to the younger audience, in my opinion. I'm not buying it. FCEUX is my friend. ____________________ Starroad32 |

lol, this thing is a joke.
They could've done the Virtual Console option, but NOPE! they just had to make people spend another 60$ just to play old games. Not to mention, since they sold it in limited quantities, they forced people to pay to dumb scalpers. |
