So pathetic. It is an emulator in a classic NES shell. It is 1/4 the size of the original and it does not even operate like the original. You cannot even open the lid to the unit. It has 30 games and there's zero backwards compatibility for the rest of the NES library. Even the cords are 30 inches long vs the 90 inches the originals had.

Everything 30 years old is "retro and cool" now. Anyone can get the emulator, the roms, and play all these games on your computer for free.

Nintendo is literally selling an emulator dressed up as a mini NES with 39 games for $65.

Lulz.

Quoted from Dutchman2009:

This is just Nintendo being Nintendo. Stores should have had at least 50 in stock for launch. This whole "withhold stock to increase demand and ensure a sellout" just caters to the profiteers. I'm waiting at least a year before I get the Nintendo switch as I have no desire to compete for the 3 systems every store will have in stock on launch day.

No no no...is this market that's "capitalism" ...

(FWIW, I absolutely and totally agree with you.)

Quoted from Eskaybee:

coming from a bunch of pinheads that'll pay 8, 9, 10, 12.5 thousand dollars on a pin that's not even complete so you can feel like youre more special than others ..

If you can show me what game in my collection meets that criteria, please let me know ; otherwise, that's Pinside profiling, and I resent it .
