Am I the only one excited that I can finally play the old games of my childhood LEGALLY?
>not owning retro consoles
Why does it have to be legal? you could literally buy a raspberry pi and classic style controller for half the price and have access to more stuff
>>345022307
If they're old games of your childhood, why can't you legally play them on your NES?
>am i the only one excited to buy the same roms from nintendo over and over again because they refuse to have a consistent universal platform
no you arent the only one. there are many delusional amiibofags like you.
>>345024593
Or you can just do it on the computer you're using right now.
>>345022307
>not owning the NES already
come on, you can get a working NES for like 40 dollars, and games vary depending on rarity.
plus, there's the virtual console.
>>345022307
If it was one of your childhood system what happened to the NES you had? Mine sits with me
>>345022307
What's virtual console on wii/wii u/3ds?
>>345024745
You can probably get on cheaper at a swap meet.
>>345022307
Value of original NES will skyrocket because of faggots wanting to be pretentious
Mark my words
>>345025039
will my Nogaems system be worth something at long last?
>>345022307
>the old games of my childhood
You're not fooling anyone, millennial kiddie.
>$60
>only a handful of games
>>345025192
>$2 per game plus the hardware to play it is too much
>>345024707
pretty sure most of those 30 games are on either wii or Wii U.
or the original hardware, so if you own them once why buy it again?
>>345025192
30 games = 2$ per game
granted the games are of varying quality, but you also get some hardware with it
>>345024745
sadly in Europe the NES wasn't as big as Sega consoles, it's really hard to get cheap NES/SNES stuff especially games.
you can probably not get NES games cheaper than with this NES Mini.
also
>having a CRT for old ass consoles
>the new NES controllers will plug into Wii remotes
>Wii has free homebrew NES emulators
Thanks Nintendo
>>345025440
Except you have to consider that you can't add games, you can't choose the games, and they're 30 year old games. I guess the last one doesn't matter when you have people still spending $5 off the store.
>>345025490
>He doesn't have a CRT
This shit better be running on as close to original hardware as possible. If it's Nintendo making this shit, they've got ZERO excuse. If this shit is ported or emulated in the device, FUCK EVERYTHING.
But yeah, if they've got the original ROMs running on as close to the original hardware as is possible in 2016, then yeah, I might actually go for it.
>>345025619
To be fair, I can't imagine any games they could add to the list that's there.
Maybe Castlevainia 3.
>>345024808
Not OP but my father gave it away when I got a Play Station.
It's just a plug and play collection. Woooow. I'm more curious to see what this means for the virtual console prices.
Also I bet it will retail higher than most plug and play collections. Probably around 80. Waste of time. But eat it up, normies.
OP here; It's a great thing because I don't have my NES anymore (Long gone) and I can finally get these games legally (I don't have a Wii/WiiU). I'm not a fucking pirate, quit recommending ROMS. That's illegal.
>>345026040
>"NES Classic Edition, launching in stores on Nov. 11 at a suggested retail price of $59.99"
just for your information
>>345026040
60, actually.
Depends on what games are on it honestly.
If it's shitty trash, which is hard to avoid with the NES, then this thing is worthless.
It's cool but I already got myself covered with a flashcart for my NES plugged into a proper tube TV.

don't need a CRT for that.

There is maybe 6 games worth caring about on that whole list.
Trash.
>>345025662
Without a doubt it's emulated

By that metric the Wii U also has only one game and that is Bayonetta 2, because that is literally the only game I played on it.

>>345026059
The people who made those games receive nothing if you buy them from retro shops/ebay/virtual console though even if it did I don't buy that "piracy takes away from real purchases" bullshit. People that pirate are more than likely poor or children who wouldn't buy the game anyway.
If they make a mini SNES, what games would you want on it?

The last one doesn't matter because they are still good games. How old they are is irrelevant.

Never. That thing was the biggest fucking ripoff.

>>345030739
>abandonware
Yeah not like Nintendo keeps selling these games or something.
>>345024745
Not to defend this plug and play, but you'd end up spending more on the games if you used the VC. This is the cheapest way to legally emulate.
>>345028867
>trying this hard to justify illegal acts
Adorable mate, tell me about how robbing that store is fine too because you feel entitled to free things
>>345031227
nothing wrong with plug and play.
That's some really nice packaging.
I hope they make a faux-retro commercial to go with it.
>>345025506
I'm with you on this one, 60 yuros for a emulation machine is insane but paying for a decent nintendo made controller I'm not even mad
Now if its cheap shit then fuck them
>>345025440
The entire NES library isn't worth $2, let alone $2/per game
>no analog out
>no mother 1

>>345032598
I might just buy it for the packaging and so I won't have to touch my physical collection too much. Hell I might just buy it for my niece or sister.
>>345029250
Pretty sure it will?
Even $30 Chinese android boxes (which can emulate nes AND snes and ps1 and more) have HDMI, and apart from that that's the only way most people can actually connect something to their screen today.
>>345022307

There are better ways to spend your money and still be legal about it.

>>345022307
Ah, have we reached the time where roms are basically treated the same as AAA new releases and getting a rom of some obscure famicom only game will be akin to getting CP?
I'm glad I have every single NES and SNES game on a 2 gig thumbdrive
>>345025440
No, it isn't. Fucking 10 dollar 1000 GAMES IN 1 mall kiosk systems have these games on them. EVERY SINGLE NES GAME EVER MADE, COMBINED, is less than 80 mb. No, it's not worth it and anyone who'd buy this shit and not just download an emulator is a fucking retard.

You have been able to do that for quite some fucking time...
I am surprised that apparently Nintendo is still interested in Virtual Console, apparently they now have some TG16 games (R-Type and Bonk's adventure I think...).
Now if they could just do it for more of the other classic ones and systems stuck on the Wii VC.
>>345024593
because that's nerd shit. you think im gonna have my raspberry shite hooked up to the tv, careful the cat doesn't get close and shocks the shit out of it, people coming by wondering if I was fixing something?

Makes no difference.

t. upper class white suburban kid
The more important question is, will there be a famicom version in japan?
no matter which way you wanna slice it to be contrarian
emulating games from the 1980s is not illegal and should be embraced by all.
NES was never good.
>>345041205
it might not be illegal, but it sure is gay
you don't wanna be gay now do you son?
>>345022307
Actually, if you owned the game originally, then it's not illegal for you to own the rom.
>tfw no dinky Famicom plug and play

I can't wait to play the games my parents played when they were kids!

OH WAIT YOU LITERALLY CAN ALREADY DO THAT JUST DOWNLOAD THIS SHIT FOR FREE
ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO SPEND $60 FOR FUCKING 4MB OF GODDAMN ROMS YOU'RE DUMB AAASSS FUUUUCKKKK
Sega, Atari, and a bunch of other companies have made many of these already. Is this hyped up just because it is Nintendo doing it this time?
>>345022307
And if that game of your childhood was from Tengen or Color Dreams?
>>345042781

yes, normie bait, i want to be fun at parties, make them play street fighter 2010 and have a great time.
>>345042826
Pretty much, the master system one comes with more than 120 games and it's cheaper.
>>345042920

>>345043807
How do you know it'll be emulated?
I might get this for my mom and dad they love smb3 and I like castlevania so maybe. Kinda wishing they just went ahead and included the first 3 mega mans and omit stuff like tecmo bowl since I could care less. Another thing that bugs me is it only includes one controller , would rather have either 2 or one controller and a zapper. Not having duck hunt is a sin.
Would love to see a fire emblem game added. Hopefully Japan does similar. Hopefully an SNES and GCN follow.
>>345042014
This
the Famicom is still the coolest looking console out there...even if its a bitch to play with the hard-wired controllers. I used to buy used ones at thrift stores in Japan. Used games and consoles are way cheaper over there than in the states and you can actually find decent an rare shit

No thanks faggots, I already own a Famicom and my favorite games on cartridges, you will need to kill me and empty my bank account to see ANY of my income ever go to your shitty company again. Nintendo is literally killing gaming, first with that Normalfag Go app which isn't even a game, and now with this pathetic attempt to try and get 20-something-year old hipsters to act like emulation is illegal.

The question is, why it's becoming available in 20-fucking-16? Was it made possible with some secret milltary rocket science, is it powered by moon rocks, did they had to summon demons of videogame hell for 20+ years?
You nostalgiafags are played like a whole orchestra right now. Old games for consoles no longer in production MUST be available LEGALLY in their digital form for at least some sort of preservation. Same goes for movies and books. Fuck, whatever, you can prolong your fucking copyrights until death of Universe + 1 year, but at least make that shit SOMEHOW available, even for full release price.
I would be if it took actual cartridges.
>has a chance to re-release the NES and give people a starter pack of games to play
>instead just makes an emulation station that only plays the games already on it and/or that you have on your Wii/Wii U VC
>>345031409
Yeah tell me about how you've found a way to duplicate supermarket items and leave them otherwise untouched.
>>345044921
I think this is more of an attempt to get money from 40-something parents who have nostalgia for mario but don't know what an emulator is, they weren't expecting you to buy this
>>345022307
Wii can do that, and most likely a LOT better than this box, given the fact this is one of those ARM based craps.
>>345045350
Don't forget that in consequence all the games will look like absolute shit because NES games were designed for CRT's.
Guys
It takes
Get this
It takes a fucking USB cable
You know what that can do?
Do you?
This shit'll be hackable almost immediately

>>345045350
That'd take too much effort to produce/distribute probably
>>345045465
If I'm 30 and still have old games and systems from when I was younger, why wouldn't a parent in their 40s?
>>345045786
Because parents are too tech illiterate not to let their consoles dust away in a filthy basement.
Isn't this shit releasing for the holiday season? They're obviously mainly hoping that the 80s nerds that managed to breed are gonna buy this for their kids.
>>345045706
It's the nintendo Wii standard thing, not USB.
So what 30 games would you want for a theoretical Classic SNES collection?
>>345045880
If someone actually has nostalgia for these old games and has kids, they more than likely still own the original hardware and games they bought in the 80s, plus an old TV to play them on. This shit is something you would see near Christmas in the bargain bin at CVS.
