Why not just get an emulator? Somewhere I have every game I have ever owned on NES, SNES and Atari 2600 on a disk somewhere. The cool thing about an emulator is you can just push a button and save/reload where you left off. No more of those old school stupid passcodes or only 3 lives and that's it crap.

Retro games are bad though and nobody should be paying $60 to play them.

I think that there are a lot of old Nintendo fans and hipsters who would want to own one just to own one. I think this is a good plan on Nintendo's part to make a profit selling this cheap hardware to a niche market.

Funny, I have been noticing a surge of Nintendo systems on Craigslist for ungodly amounts of money as well as some new "cool" hang out spots and bars with the old Arcade systems. Even with the graphics and having to blow on the cartridges and punch the Nintendo in the mouth sometimes to get it to work, some of my best childhood memories were in front of a Nintendo. Playing the very first Metal Gear before the story went all weird was epic as well as the first time I saw that gold Zelda cartridge my mom bought.
With that being said, I can see why someone would want to try and cash in on nostalgia. But since all hipsters should die and Nintendo was already on it's last leg, I wouldn't support this even if I didn't have all the games already.

Tyger, anyone that should know fearpoint is mostly negative is you. Just saying. Gotta love his sarcastic remarks though. Tends to bring some "flava" into the forums.

I would vouch for that. They are part owners to Pokémon, and look what's going on right now with that? Yeah... Talk about a money maker.

Didn't they have 3 or 4 failed consoles in a row already?  Yeah, I forgot about this whole Pokemon Go crap. At least it is getting people outside, but maybe those types of people would be better off staying inside...

my wife said she wants this to play on our TV , as soon as it arrives. !!!!
I wish it would come with a memory port expansion slot, so you could get another game pack later on to add in more retro action....

Maybe someone will figure out how to mod it to add other games, if not i bet someone will post how to convert it to a emulator machine.

I wished that Adventure Island and Super Dodgeball was also included.
But honestly, that is a pretty sweet lineup!

You can get the same thing with a Raspberry Pi and have ALL of the Nintendo games on there for the same price or cheaper

yea ok, and the sky is what bright red, while suddenly humans breath CO2 and exhale oxygen? Old games are some of the best games. They had used to focus on such things as Tell a story Not have game breaking bugs on release day Not have DLC on release day The easy setting back then would equal hard today The games had heart Modern games ship out like cheap Chinese knockoffs, low quality, very little time spent polishing, and no heart, because the Dev's are driven like slaves.
