Yeah, I have an old Commodore 64 montior that this would be perfect for. There are HDMI to composite adaptors, but it would probably end up compressing the image.
Weird reading about all these pre-order problems overseas. I could pre-order the thing at my local videogame chain store a week after reveal, no problem. I still ended up as nr.40 and altho the people working there keep assuring me I can pick it up at release, I figure I'm gonna have to wait a couple of weeks or so.
Atleast there's no standing in line in front of a closed store or anything crazy like that.
Because this is way cheaper and barely takes up any space in comparison? And I want the save states? And I don't really care about the issue that much anyway.Why not just grab an NES? They're only $50 or so. Retro-Gaffers can help you with repairing anything wrong with it too. The library of the NES is the stuff of legends and I think every gamer with access to a CRT should probably have one just because.... it's the king.

Same here, I got the model 1702. This would work perfectly on that too, Nes games on my PI runs awesomely on it.
Are these controllers going to be something I can convert to USB?
I wonder if a third party might make a NES 2 "dogbone" version of the controller. The rectangle doesn't tickle my nostalgia quite like this little guy
It adds to the nostalgia...
Yeah, I wont be able to use this thing if I use it on my TV as I will have to basically put my face on the screen to use it. Come on Nintendo, what the hell. Guess I will hook it up to my PC monitor.
Did this thing ever go up for pre-order? (US)

At Target and I want to say somewhere else? Walmart?

What are the chances of the Toys R Us / Target pre-orders actually going out on the 11th?
Nice I can use those instead of getting a wireless or longer cable
You guys really are that desperate for that dirty washed out picture huh.

Did we ever get confirmation the cord for the controller is that short on the final product? I'd thought it was said to be longer.
So this thing is going to be impossible to get on the Americas just like amiibo last year, right? Lord have mercy on our souls when Nintendo Switch comes out...
There's an unboxing on YouTube.
I believe it is short.
10 ft HDMI cable is all you need.
Gamexplain unboxed it. Cord looks reaaally short

Bestbuy is selling a 3rd party extension cord for the controller.
This will be us on release day
Any chance of Nintendo doing a 2nd run on these? Missed the preorder window and would love to buy one

Can't you just use any Wiimote extension cable?
Thanks for sharing! Confirms this will be the first physical Nintendo product with a MyNintendo code (300 Platinum Coins, no Gold ones, though). Smart move on their part, now they just gotta put stuff on the service that would make folks actually want to redeem said points
