I would have bought about three of these at Christmas for myself and family, at least...As it stands, I probably won't be buying any now. I can't imagine I am the only one like that. Hope Nintendo are chuffed with their numbers because it's probably half of what they would have done otherwise...And the majority of that half aren't coming back for one now the holidays are over. |

So glad I wasn't born in an era where people are intimidated by actually challenging games. I cannot for the life of me, fucking believe kids today cannot beat the original Punch-Out!!'s Glass Joe. And I'm not trying to judge or criticize anyone, but come the fuck on. There are very few fighters in boxing/MMA games easier to defeat than Glass Joe. But I'm happy for your huge triumph, Merc. Congrats! 😁😁😁👍👍👍👌

I am more amazed at how I beat certain games with no internet lol. I get stuck on the slightest thing now and am straight there to see what to do! Think our generation had more imagination! |

Guys, maybe we should forget about this debacle and ficus on Nintendo Switch hype:
TL;DW version: "ZOMG!!!!1!!!!!111!!!!!!!! Nintendo is actually marketing and hyping their next console, and not only that, they're actually doing it right...EVEN IN THIS SUPER BOWL AD! *creams himself* He disclaims that there's no sound because while use of the entire 30 seconds of the ad is fair use, he basically thought Nintendo might sue if the sound portion played or something. Anyway, just enjoy the ad's video goodness, once again RTUSA nails it. |

Wonder if Nintendo even cares since it will only increase the sales of the system.

Acclaim tried it's hand at a wireless IR controller for the NES. Legend has it that due to the technological limitations of the time however it was largely ineffective.
It wouldn't be until the GameCube's WaveBird wireless controller that the potential for wireless controllers started to be realized. I had one back in the day and it was amazing. |

I like the shell, so I kind of want one to gut and put a Rasberry Pi in there.

I got lucky and managed to get 3 of the NES minis right before X-mas. Both my sons wanted one and my lady wanted one. Thought I was just gonna have to wait till January to get them. Then was reminded that the neighbor's daughter is the district manager for Gamestop in this area. Called her and got the 3 I needed for retail price. Gave her a $20 a s a thank you.
Playing around with the one I gave to my lady I do like it. But what suck is there is a bit of input lag.Most of the games it isn't even noticeable. But on Punch Out it is horrible. I use to be able to pretty much blow thru that game. And still can on a legit NES. But on the Mini the timing is slightly different. It is a neat plaything. But I am not going to bother getting one for myself. Sure I can hack it and get it to play lots of games. But I already own pretty much every system I want. What I really want now is a Retro AVS. Sure it is a bit over 100 bucks. But being able to play NES and Famicom carts on a system that isn't just a cheap NoC clone systme is great. Then add in that it had the four score/NES Satellite built in and had HDMI outputs without adding input lag to me it is worth the price. |

So, late to this party, but I had some people I used to work with keeping feelers out for me since December. Got the call a couple of days ago and was able to pick one up. Feel like I had to be more clandestine than some sort of illegal drug transaction, though.

[QUOTEYahoo]Earlier this year, the NES Classic Edition died an untimely death. According to Nintendo of America CEO Reggie Fils-Aime, the retro remake was never meant to be anything more than a limited-time release, but the company could never have predicted just how popular the device would become. [/QUOTE]Wait they canceled it WTF?

Also unlike most gaming companies, a limited run by Nintendo almost is always legit in terms of rarity. |

I'd bet on a SNES Classic Mini for this Holiday season is probably part of "TF", along with outstanding early sales numbers on the Switch. |

In an era where retro is incredibly popular, who could have possibly predicted that a plug in and play version of one of the most beloved consoles with a number of its most beloved games would be so popular?

People are interested in NES now because its 32 years old once it hits 36 people in their target market (18-35 years) won't even know what it is.
