The Wii-Mini only had composite not Hdmi, so thats new at least. This uses usb for power so thats new also. This has no online access I am assuming, so that's the same.

Well, everyone has been asking what Nintendo has for the holidays. I think Reggie just cracked open the "Use in case of emergency" case and saved the holidays for Nintendo.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Great list, but Uniracers is vital.

Fuck this looks cool as hell.
If this was SNES id be all over it since I have more fond memories of it. But Id get this as well. Price?
EDIT: $60 is a great price. I am all over this. I want to pre order this.

Bomberman might happen, same with Resident Evil and Gemon, as Nintendo is on good terms with Capcom and Konami
. I doubt the Rare stuff though, but with solid support backing the information, I thought it was worth writing the story on it. Hope I'm right, but its just a rumor for now until a official announcement.

Wow, this huge and opens the door for them to do it with snes or n64 maybe too.

This is cool I guess but I have a way of playing most NES games that I want.
Now SNES version of this I'm in.

Real shame that Nintendo wouldnt be allowed to sell Yoshis Island, Star Fox or Stunt Race FX.

Hope they do a wireless controller
I can see them doing it again for the SNES, and N64. But in a sense it would be such a tease. Here are those great games again on mini versions of the classic systems. But
you only get 30 of each. *sigh*
It would be great if there was a way to add more games to the system. 30 is such a small amount on how many great games were on the NES. But I doubt it has WiFi capability and I dont see anything to plug an SD card or USB stick into.

Never gonna happen due to rights issues, sadly.

Maybe a stupid question but will those games look ok on an HD console? Are they up-ressed?

My only interest in this is seeing if I can gut it and shove a Raspberry Pi inside. What a perfect case if everything fits.
I think if they could do Star Fox and Yoshi's Island they would've been on VC already.
Yeah I think I'll definitely grab one with two controllers at least.
This a very cool thing. I had seen these devices in the past and it's good to have an official one. The list of games is indeed a list of some of the best games on the NES. I wish that number was at 40 games instead as there are a few games that should be on it still but at $60 that is a steal when you look at the prices of NES VC games on the eShop.
I'll certainly be picking this up as a good number of those games I haven't picked up. I am really surprised and happy to see Final Fantasy 1 in there and equally surprised there is no Dragon Warrior. Especially given how much Nintendo chases and chased the Dragon Quest brand over the years.

They probably won't but assuming its a success, a third party will.

I mean like once I get it I'm going to see if the board for that and the Mini look the same I mean I wonder if they are just not going to show the ports and have them blocked.

OK I'm buying this no matter what.
Well, Nintendo might be in the talks with Microsoft about this already, as while it could just be place holders in Nintendo's servers, a few Rare Games were found on the servers; Goldeneye 007, Perfect Dark, and Banjo Tooie.
Likely not really happening but if those names were on the servers, it is possible that Nintendo is trying to get Rare content on their systems. They did work with Microsoft on Minecraft Wii U and even getting Mario skins for the game for example
Hadn't seen that rumor before, thanks for pointing that out. This being found recently makes it even more interesting. All preparations for the N64 mini

I'm going to buy like 4-5 of these for presents. I just hope the controllers are to the quality standards of the OG controllers. I bought a random NES USB controller from some 3rd party once and it was a PoS.
Oh right, Pixar kinda killed that game for good, didn't they.
Not to say I told you so, but I've been suggesting this for years.
Missed opportunities abound with this little device. If they linked it to the virtual arcade, could sell gamecube ans snes controllers and it came in SNES and Gamecube variations, this would be killer.
It's not like the Vita TV didn't show how a micro console could be done (and marketed terribly).
Anyway, I will buy it.

I'm honestly more concerned about the lag. I'm no fan of playing NES games on the Wii U due to the obvious input lag that's present.
I doubt Square-Enix would give away all 4 of their big SNES games (plus Mario RPG). I would expect Final Fantasy IV and Actraiser.
That's not what it's called though. It's called Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Mini.

This is simply fantastic. Nintendo has been on a roll lately with products beyond their console/handheld space.
I'll be asking for this for Xmas and buying some for friends. I have dedicated CRT for retro gaming in my basement and I own both an NES and Famicom with well over 100 games. But I still want one of these. Will be great to hook up to my HDTV in the living room.
Also, a super-surprisingly awesome list of games, too.

For anyone wondering about the frequency in Europe. Some already noticed Final Fantasy that never came out here. Another hint: Super C is listed for Europe too, but here the game was originally released as Probotector II.

So why is Nintendo so keen on avoiding to release Contra on both the VC and this machine?
I can't imagine there's a technical reason for it (it runs just fine if you inject it into the Super C VC emulator), so I'm guessing it's for legal reasons? Does MS have some sort of exclusivity deal? Is it because the boxart is obviously ripped off from Schwarzenegger?

This is beautiful. Buying.
Now if only Sega would make one. A real, official mini, not a POS piece of cheap plastic outsourced to some Chinese company with crappy emulation that breaks after a month.

I'll only accept a N64 one if it has 64 games.
So basically it will never happen even if it's marketing perfection like the Dreamcasts 9.9.99 release date.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
It's so cute I need it!
The latter most certainly. Original NES can't output HDMI without extensive modding and I just don't see Nintendo going through the trouble of redesigning the NES boards.

This make lots of sense. And capitalise on the Pokemon GO hype too!
The fact that there's no Bluetooth for the controllers also points to this. As much as I'dd love it to be able to add additional games.
