muh nostalgia
the good Nintendo is dead.
>nintendo finally makes one of those plug and play consoles everyone used to love so much
>has 30 games, most of which are regarded as good
>this is suddenly a problem/bad
cheaper than paying 5 or 6 bucks a piece for the fucking VC versions which they abandoned
>>345024864
Why not every single game?
You can download an emulator with every NES game in like 2 seconds.
>>345025042
why buy a shirt with your favorite bands logo?
So you can be a walking advertisement? fucking shill.
>>345025252
How am I a fucking shill when I encourage an illegal emulator with every single rom for free?
Fucking retard.
>>345025392
emulators aren't illegal.
But keep wearing your advertisements.
>>345025520
I don't even wear band tees you autistic fuck.
Where are you getting this shit from?
>>345025632
Sure you don't. You never wear anything with a logo!
Keep sucking that dick, shill.
>>345025042
>Why not every single game?
Because it would be a licensing nightmare?
They already have to get the okay from Taito, Konami, Square Enix, Namco, Capcom, and Tecmo in order to include a handful of their games in a little plastic box. Imagine having to do that for 713 individual games.
>>345025815
>Nintendo
>can't get a license
good one buddy
>>345025042
Why do they even bother selling their games at all? You can get most of them on an emulator in like 2 seconds. Why do studios even bother selling movies? You can download them off a torrent site in an hour or two.
I don't fucking understand /v/'s "le why do they even bother if i can just emulate xD" mentality.
>$59.99.
Meh.
>>345025892
They can't for most of those publishers since they went under, or just crazy like Konami.
>>345025892
Nice argument.
>Banjo-Kazooie
>most Konami games
>>345025042
You're the most retarded person I've ever seen.
>>345026775
Fuck off poorfag pirate
Genuinely surprised people are defending this so hard.
>>345027190
They're just falseflaggers, nobody on /v/ would actually buy this. I doubt even many plebbitors would consider it.
>>345027190

What's there that needs to be "defended?"

>>345024735
This must be the NX. Nintendo original home console. A console that will not lose profit even if it doesn't make money.
Anyway, I like it. They said won't make any games besides the 30 that come with it. So it seems like the price of the original cartridges will sky rocket again. Its amibos all over again.

He'll be so happy when I gift this to him next time I visit him.
anybody else wonder if it will be possible to hack this system for more games. although I havent heard of the system having USB ports yet.
>>345028648
get him a raspberry pi with a nintendo case anon, it will be anything and all he could ever wanted
Finally a NES classic controller. I hope they do this for other consoles. I could buy at least SNES and N64 for 10 bucks a pop.
>>345025042
Why can't I get every single game off Steam for the price of one? I can just pirate them.
>>345029078
are they compatible with pc? Id buy every gens controller again in a heartbeat
Honestly it's cheaper than I thought it would be. I mean it's still a lot but this company sells NES games for $5. If you think of this as a bundle where each game costs $2 and as a bonus you get a system and a controller to play them with it's not so bad.
>>345024735
If the emulation is good its the perfect Christmas gift for someone who grew up with the NES.
>>345029273
Well considering the Wiimote is compatible with PC as long as you you have bluetooth on your PC the answer is yes. The NES controller can be connected to Wiimote in addition to NES Mini.
>>345028648
>you could have given him multiple ways to play NES in those 20 years
>including an actual NES
Be thankful he isn't dead.
I'm just happy to get an official nes controller for the wii that i usually play vc games on.
it's pretty crappy: it's overpriced, only 30 games, most likely emulated, no future game releases, no analog output
but if they release a gamecube one i'm gonna be hyped as fuck
>>345029426
Oops didnt realize that was a wiimote connector. Looked like a printer cable port, which confused the hell out of me
>>345029620
This. I'm really stoked that controller is being sold separately. The console looks cute though. I might pick one up for my friend who runs a restaurant. I've been nagging him to get an arcade cab in there. His waiting room is really dull.
>>345029757
>most likely emulated.
Oh gee, you mean they won't have 30 different circuit boards jammed in there?
>30 games
>Can't play old NES cartridges
>Only Mega Man game is the obvious meme choice
>No way to put more games onto it
>Only 30 games out of a library of thousands.
There's a very small chance of this not being emulated
like, they could have the same hardware as the origal nes and it's cartridges - it's only 30 games, and modern technology would allow for cheap production of the boards but in a more compact form
Don't forget your AC cable!
>>345030019
why the fuck would you need 30 circuit boards? see this>>345030113
>>345030036
That's so they can sell you Famicom Mini with Jap games; Nintenbone Mini with end-of life stuff like Final Fantasy III, Megaman 6, Startropics II, etc.; Sports Mini with Tecmo Bowl and wrestling games; etc.
>>345029757
>it's overpriced
At $2 per game it's a steal compared to the Virtual Console
>>345030260
why waste time and effort developing this specialized board that houses 30 games inside the machine instead of doing the cost effective emulation?
>>345025042
>You can download an emulator with every NES game in like 2 seconds.
But that's illegal according to normals, the target for this kind of product
> you could catch a virus made by the evil 4chan ): anon and get you credit card info stolen, also the MPAA will put you in jail ))):
If it's an emulator won't people just crack it open and mod it to run any rom?
No contra no buy
>>345030615
Their emulator probably only supports a handful of mappers though.
>>345029561
Its been hard keeping anything working in that house as the kids were ginormous fucking asshats that dropped everything.
that and my Grandfatherlives in mexico so hes eternally in proverty and cannot afford any form of vidya and has to be given supply and money cashes of food once every few months.
I've given him alot of machines but things are finally looking up as the children are now becoming teens/young adults and are more focused on the computer I brought them for free.it was an old 2004 Dell
>>345028985
My grandpa is kinda technologically challenged when it comes to computer's and emulation so honestly this is the best option for him is just to have him turn on the machine and have his selection placed in front of him.
I think it's cool and I would appreciate it if given as a gift but I wouldn't go out and spend money on it.
>Classic Controller input compatibility
Nice
>HDMI only
uwot
>>345025252
That would have been a good analogy if you didn't follow /v/ culture and spin it into an insult.
Remember everyone! After you type your reply, take a deep breath and read it again before posting. Will your tone really make an impact or are you just trying to piss on someone's shoe?

why would you buy this
>>345031852
I was trying to piss on someone's shoe because he did not move it.
>>345032027
Well that wasn't very nice.
Can we discuss how surprisingly mediocre the selection is?
>Castlevania 2 but no Castlevania 3
>Only one Megaman

Swear to god Nintneod could shit down your throats and /v/ermin would love it.
>>345024735
I guess this is what the console without a disk system patent was for.
One more NX rumor debunked i guess.
>>345028648
You're a nice gradson. I wish i had relatives with interest in videogames.
>>345032336
>Castlevania
>Double Dragon II
>Final Fantasy
>Ghosts 'n' Goblins
>Ice Climber
>Kid Icarus
>Kirby
>Super Mario 1-2-3
I fail to see an issue
>>345024735
I thought this was going to be a Virtual Console machine.
You know, this could be pretty great for the N64, since its good catalogue doesn't surpass 20 games, is specially good for plug'n'play since its main appeal is multiplayer and the 3D graphics would look good with the upscaled rendering that HDMI only obligates.
The only problem is that Nintendo and good ideas are not the best friends and half of the good games on the damn thing are by Rare.
>>345033113
The original FF is not really good as it is, honestly, but even after that, it really doesn't do the NES justice. Mediocre is not necessarily bad, but the collection selected is just plain, below entry level, and the inability to upload it is a bummer.
>>345032336
the selection doesn't have to be that good. Alone in this thread are people who would pay like 100 bucks for this.
Plus, it leaves room for more different versions with different games, spreading out the best games.
It's obvious.
>>345033425
>it leaves room for more different versions with different games, spreading out the best games.
>every NES Mini is 60 bucks
You're right but I wish you weren't. A Wii for 30 will do perfectly.
>>345033419
I'd honestly take original broken FF any day over FF "get fucking op in 5 minutes" Dawn of Souls. The former at least required some strategy
>Nintendo is releasing a Plug-n-Play console
I'm not the only one who thinks this is fucking weird, right? Definitely a sign of the times.
>>345030000
Nice quads
>>345033981
Well, they started monetising on emulation years ago.
>no street fighter 2010
I don't know about the price tag. Initially I saw it and thought it sounded awesome, but $60? I mean it's only $2 per game but fuck, the Sega plug and play consoles are like, $20-30 for 50+ games.
Granted those are usually extremely poor quality, but still. If the emulation is perfect and the build quality is good I'll probably still pick one up.
>>345030036
>No way to put more games onto it
Is that 100% confirmed? I mean it seems obvious, but has it actually been stated?
I want to dream that I can hook it up to wifi or something and buy more games for it.
>>345035401
The thing is that it's extremely easy to emulate the NES perfectly and all of its library can fit into less than 1 GB (and that counts a goddamn lot of shovelware that nobody could pick and broken games). The price is off the hook.
>>345035602
It has no WiFi capabilities.
>>345035401
>$60 USD
>$90 CDN
>>345024864
>everyone used to love so much
lol what? everyone who saw these things knew it was a huge scam just to get dumb asses and ignorant parents to buy trash for their kids.
>>345024735
Can you stop being a contrarian neet faggot for just one day?
>>345030036
The only meme Megaman game is 4
There's a meme online that it's good and not complete trash.
>The controller port is the exact same as the Wii controllers
>Was always super fucking jelly of Europe and their SNES classic controller they got, could never get one for myself
>Because they sell the controllers separately I'll be able to finally have a "classic" controller to play on my modded Wii / Wii U with
>mfw I think about the Pokken Controller and the Smash GCN hub and how Nintendo just blocked support for other games because fuck you
>The realization that the same will probably happen with these controllers as well
At least the Wiimote on it's own is basically an NES controller.
>>345024864
Oh deep down everyone wanted it but because it actually happened people have to piss and moan for the sake of being intolerable little shits.
I for one will buy one for myself and one for my nephew so he wont try to play my physical collection anymore.
It's win win for people who don't have autism!
>>345024735
Its true though.
Pokemon Go is literally Us 90s kids right? xD: The Game
>>345025252
You must be a pleasure to interact with in person. How often do you find people rushing away from you with looks of disgust on their faces?
>$1 per game as oppose to high priced VC ports.
>HDMI cable, leading to crystal-clear pixels.
>controller ports compatible with Classic Controllers.
>Smaller design, which means it isn't too much of a hassle to take on the go.
>NINJA GAIDEN AS A PLAYABLE GAME
I'd say it's worth the price, I mean fuck, you're getting 30 built in games for a buck alongside a NES controller that's compatible with Wii or Wii U and an HDMI cable, both items should be roughly around $10 individually. The only downsides I can really think of is the lack of AV cables and the obvious factor of not being able to play cartridges, but other than that, $60 for a mini NES isn't a bad deal.
>$60 for 30 roms.
lol
The master system one comes with 132 games and it's cheaper
>>345025042
Because 99% of NES games are fucking garbage, which you would have to sort through everytime you wanted to play one of the good ones.
>How dare Nintendo not included masterpieces like ET? They're fucking doomed this time!!
But does it run overwatch?
>>345035920
Megaman 2 is fucking garbage though
I mean, the music is fucking great but a lot of the stages (like Woodman) are fucking boring
Plus the Wily stages are fucking ridiculously bad design
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDWLt_UkS_M
>>345024864
60 bucks is a bit much though anon.
>>345036309
Surprisingly, there's not one ET licensed game on the NES.
Also, the library selected for the Mini is really basic, those 30 games do not really do that 1% of games much justice.
>>345032336
>no Dragon Quest
Nintendo I thought you were sticking up for DQ.
>>345036532
fucking oldfags dont get how bullshit that crash wall was. fuck that bullshit limited ammo crap.
>>345036706
What's Dragon Quest, anon?
>>345036691
Wouldn't that be unsurprising? Since ET kind of caused the video game crash that necessitated the NES having a robot and a light gun to trojan horse it's way onto store shelves.
>>345036706
>SE will never get over the fact that DQ is objectively better than FF
I hate it

Another Nintendo hate thread.
You fucking must frothing at the mouth. A few months ago Nintendo were a laughing stock.
Now the world wants to suck Zelda's dick, Pokemon Go is fucking bigger than Jesus and the NES classic will be the best selling console this Christmas.
And the haven't even unveiled their next gen machine yet.
2016 is the Year Of Nintendo. /v BTFO
>>345036865
You're underestimating how many licensed games there were on that damn thing.
>>345035967
It registers as a classic controller just like the EU/JP SNES one does. Also classic controllers work on this as well.
>>345024864
Why would I buy this when I already have an emulator and all the games for free via that emulator?
>>345037002
Yeah, flipping the middle finger to their Wii U owners and leaving them with absolutely fucking nothing for 2016 and cucking them with the inferior Zelda version was so cool of them. Based Nintendo!
>>345037002
>the NES classic will be the best selling console this Christmas
Do Nintendrones unironically think this? Kids don't want to play NES games
Now that I think of it, is it be possible to make a computer that runs lower resolutions (namely 240p or 480p) but also able to cycle emulate the NES and the SNES?
>>345037198
thats not what cucking means you moron
If Nintendo fans collectively married the inferior Zelda version, and Nintendo fucked the inferior Zelda version, then Nintendo would be cucking Nintendo fans with the inferior Zelda version.
FUCK YOU
>>345026061
Because emulation is better and easier than buying this piece of shit. You can download every game ever through the ps2 on an sd card for free.
>>345037065
Holy shit, seriously? Okay, I'm getting a controller asap then.
Hope they do SNES next.
>mfw the local game store sells some third party SNES classic controller bullshit that died on me in like an hour
>>345032336
This is an incredibly normie-friendly selection. Nintendo is gonna make a fucking killing on this thing.
>>345037445
Not him, but I doubt kids will be their main selling point. All the people who "grew out" of video games will be overwhelmed with nostalgia and buy the shit out of this. Mark my word that the most sales will be for people aged 20-35.
>>345035979
pretty much this
>>345038049
Kids don't want to play NES games. They'll profit for sure but it wont be super popular or anything.
Don't see what the problem is. You guys keep mentioning the Raspberry Pu, but this thing is really only meant for the casual consumer or collectors. If nobody buys it, then it's no skin off Nintendo's back as I doubt it'd cost a lot for them to make.
My opinion is that the price isn't as bad as /v/ makes it out to be, and the controller seems cool.
>>345024735
>HDMI cable
>Not RWY cables for the full plug n play console aesthetic
Come on Nintendo, get it right.
>>345030036
>Only 30 games out of a library of thousands
How many of those are actually good games anon?
hopefully the hipsters hear capcims great soundtracks and get influenced by them
>>345038272
Young kids will play the shit out of NES games. Maybe not once they hit their teens and start calling people faggot on PSN but my nephews fucking loved playing old shit on VC when I still had a Wii.
>>345037445
>kids
Nigga my 52 year old boss at work wants one because it brings back memories of when she played vidya with her son back in the 80s. Doubly so when I told her it had Dr. Mario and the original Zelda on it.
Kids aren't the target demographic.
>>345024735
Getting this for Metroid.
>>345036706
Nintendo probably let the third parties chose their games, which is why MegaMan 2 and FF1 are on there. DQVIII releases around Fall/the holidays, but Square only gives a fuck about marketing FF especially when XV is around the corner.
I'm still salty at Square for not planning on releasing "I am Setsuna" on the Vita for the West, but they'll definately push "World of Final Fantasy" for it. Seriously, fuck that company.
>>345038272
>>345038606
I'm thinking about getting one for my nephew, he only just turned 3 but he already loves his video games. He likes jumping around like Mario and saying "wahoo!" all the time. It's so fucking cute man.
>>345037445
All those man childs currently playing Pokemon Go will be like "Oh yeah, I had one of those as a kid, I've ALWAYS been a big game geek, muh nostalgia."
>>345038898
>It's so fucking cute man.

>>345038898
Just keep him away from Sonic.
>>345037002
>suck Zelda's dick,
Since when was Zelda a filthy degenerate?
>>345039245
Fuck, I was gonna make a video last time I went to visit but completely forgot. I'll definitely have to do it next time though. Thanks for reminding me anon.
It's going to look like fucking ass just like the Virtual Console and Gameboy Player does.
I don't understand why nintendo keeps insisting on that bilinear filter shit, it boggles my fucking mind
>>345024735

I'll buy this because I want to.
>Go through the list of games
>no Blades of the Steel
WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT
Are there pictures of the Japanese version out, I doubt their's will be like ours due to the Famicom looking completely different
>>345041472
It's western market only.
The japanese has had mini famicom on the market for more than a decade.
>>345041667
What, you mean the GBA series?
Guess NES remix was testing the waters
>>345041872
I mean shit like this:
https://youtu.be/g3goNscj-Xc?t=6m46s
Nintendo still releases NES consoles and game cartridges to the japanese market.
Their market is just a little different. They buy old consoles and treat it like it's just a new console. In the west the consoles gets dropped like a brick once new ones release.
>>345042356
6:46 since timed links don't work on 4chan.
>>345042356
Did you even listen to what the guy was saying in the video or are you just retarded?
>>345025756(You)
>>345042510
He is talking about the specific knock offs in the machine. Nintendo has official ones as well.
funfact: The knock-offs don't use emulation but uses actual NES hardware to run the games.
>>345025632
>I'm too stupid to understand a metaphor. Which makes sense because I'm too stupid to see why my argument is dumb.
>>345042856
PROVE IT THEN, DUMB FUCK.
Just so you know, you won't be able to. Nintendo stopped manufacturing Famicoms in Japan in 2003. And Famiclones exist in the west too.
>people want those sharp edged square controllers.
its not a big deal but there is a reason the snes ones are rounded off.
>>345044542
Hopefully those wii remote styled ports means we can use any Classic Controller we want with it. Though having the NES controller is nice enough for the sake of novelty.
>>345025892
>i have no idea how licensing, licensing rights or licensing ownership work, but that wont stop me from being a dumbass!
>>345044848
It means exactly that, actually. Nintendo has finally realised that whilst having good controllers, making the cables connectable to the Wiimote only was a retarded idea.
>>345024735
Does it have NARC, captain skyhawk and final fantasy? (3 i guess)
>>345045405
It has the original Final Fantasy.
>>345045545
good enough i guess
>>345045405
Captain Skyhawk was the shit.
how many times do they want me to buy a different emulated version of mario
>>345046706
