The cost is high... but if it's coming directly from Nintendo at least the hardware should be solid... not something very commonly found in these retro systems. I also agree with @Fleebitten regarding modern TVs. These games didn't just play well, but looked great on our tiny analog TVs. You know, how pixels weren't all that square 'n' sharp back then.

If they had made this thing, to accept the old carts, this would have been a no-brainer. Going to stick with my Retron 5.


That I agree with!

I've heard rumors that this is a stripped down Wii with HDMI out. It will be interesting to see if this is true.

It looks like Japan also gets it's own mini-NES in the form of it's Japanese counterpart back in the day. https://t.co/xTNdCQdbzi
