This isn't a classic remake. It's a $3 ARM board with 8MB flash being sold for $60 bucks.

>runs a locked up custom android rom and an emulator

It'll still do best than the ouya tho

you are late to the party, this has happened for 10 years now.

Atari flashback is good example of that.

It will do better because of the Nintendo label. I doubt the SoC they chose is even more powerful than the Cortex A9 in Ouya. The plastic box probably cost more. Also, how the fuck could they not have Castlevania 3 on there?

Yet they have fucking simon's quest...

This is for casuals, whose taste is fickle for passing fads.

Real people into retro either use the real hardware or have every single goddamn game for their emulators.

>>55597077

pretty much, but its mainly the novelty its a minature nes system thats why people are going to buy it

basically its going to be bought up by scumbag ebay sellers and sold for like 5x the price probably

A raspberry zero can play the SNES fine.

You only need a few bucks for an ARM board that can run the NES.

>SoC they chose is even more powerful than the Cortex A9 in Ouya
Of course it won't because it isn't needed.

thanks captain obvious

You fucking idiots, every single one of you missed the point of this product. Nintendo has NOTHING new for the Christmas season and this is just their desperate attempt at getting some of that holiday cash. You stupid fucking autistic retards, do you ever sit and think for more than a nanosecond. You fucks are busy trying to figure out what this all means. You stupid fucking virgins, use your brain next time.
>cash grab
>doesn't mean shit
>still cool
>you fucking idiots

or theyre using nostalgia to generate hype before they roll out some kind of brand new hardware

>>55597135
Hey anons what's the name of this?

> moot add's an image search feature right there above the picture
> faggots still too stupid to use it.
>>
>>55598267
Anon who's Moot?

>>55597046
They do already, just that there's no legacy hardware but just an IC or worse and emulator on an SoC.
