Your emulator box sucks Nintendo. The OUYA is a better machine than that.

There is one with no answer and it's about to die.

I might get one for the novelty factor, but I'm more interested in the controllers since they're Wiimote compatible and I already use my Wii for NES games anyway. Probably be better than getting an overpriced NES to Wiimote converter, I just hope they feel the same, especially coming from Nintendo themselves.

The fuck?

Oops, I looked at the catalog twice and didn't see it. Can't delete the thread now.

>>3362293
Yeah the list of games isn't exactly appealing. Unless someone finds a way to mod it and to put any game you want on it, I see no reason to get one.
>>
>>3362310
It's not worth it because it's a plug and play where most of the games included are common as fuck that you can find at any independent video game store.
>>
>>3362168

I want one with a flashcart.

List of Nintendo owned games, they could have added if they weren't being cheap

Wrecking Crew
Mach Rider
Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels
Joy Mech Fight
EarthBound Beginnings

I'm not sure how the VC version works but that would mean more effort making it emulate FDS games. Though there are roms of pirate carts they could tweak.

>>
>>3362678
Aren't there 2 versions of Dragon Warrior with different manners of language? But it's not like they're marketing to the autistic crowd that would bitch about not including the other version for a system they will not buy.
>>
What could've been better in my opinion:
these 30 games and a NES conversion of their more recent good games.
Splatoon became something à-la Contra
Galaxy is a platformer that plays with gravity and got shoot em up stages
Mario Kart in the vein of RC Pro Am
Skyward Sword as a classic Zelda
>>
>>3362217
how do you know? Did they release info?
>>
>>3362168
>no achievements

Not for me. it doesn't bring nothing new here, is just a rip off of the Flashback 4 and the Plug N Play consoles.
Anyone that has the original NES or even better an emulator there's no need to buy this shit.

Even if it wasn't cheap garbage aimed at hipster children, fuck that shit in half.

lmao they can't just grab a fan-translated rom/patch online and slap it on their system without an outcry.
>>
>>3362560
Is that yours?

If so, do you know where I could find one of those av in carts for the gameboy?
I've been looking for one for years, but no luck. The manufacturers website isn't online anymore.
>>
>>3362168
Not really planning on picking one up anyways (probably going to get one of those controllers for Wii emulation though), but is it just HDMI output? That'd be pretty lame.

It's kinda unreasonable to expect them to re-license Mike Tyson's likeness for a cheap re-release.

>>3363176
Castlevania III IS a pretty glaring omission considering the other two are on there and CVIII is held in pretty high regard.
>>
>>3363181
I don't know, I think getting unreasonably angry at an over priced system that at isn't aimed you and you aren't going to buy is pretty dumb anymore, it's like getting angry because a poly pocket you saw advertised didn't come with a purse.

Doubly so since they pulled him off the game because of the ear incident.
>>
>>3363194
not to mention that now he is also known for woman beating and possible rape. His image is completely tarnished, there is no way nintendo would want him on their product, nostalgia justifications or not.

Way cheaper too.
I admit that case on the mini nes looks pretty cool though.
>>
>>3362560
Why the fuck was my post deleted?

Does anyone know where to get one of those av adaptors for the gameboy?
I've been looking for quite a while but can't find any.

I would have much preferred it to an actual physical re-release, along with the games on Nintendo cards or something, and not an emulator.
>>

That happened after the NES lifeline.
>>
>>3362168

check the fucking catalog you retarded cum stain.

been thinking about getting this for the wife's kid.
>>
>>3363229
You should of gotten eReader back then
>>
>>3363226
It'd be even easier to buy a used Wii and spend ten minutes setting up homebrew and an NES emulator, plus you get 240p output. Hell, it'd probably be cheaper to get a Wii and new NES controller than the NES mini.

Lame, should have had a bit more:

>>3362293
VRC6 support does sound tricky.

>>3362651
>>3362678
>>3363001
This.

Double Dragon 3, Dragon warrior 2,3 or 4 and SMB2j should have been there.

Final Fantasy 3 or somesuch would have been nice.

Lagrange Point would have been impressive.
>>
>>3362678
>>3363485
The dragon warrior/quest games were always a hard sell in US and they are going for 30 somethingers that want a conversation piece they can also play games on in their office or something to show their kids "how games were" not RPG autists, they probably figured it would be a waste of time to include them.
>>
>>3363231
huh, you are right, just read into it a bit more and the actual reason they dropped the license was that he was waning in popularity because of a few then recent lost matches. That being said, I'm sure that his more current image probably did influence the decision not to try to get his name on the new release.
>>
>>3363228
your post wasn't deleted though, are you drunk?
>>3363116
>>
>>3363501
I only suggested one. If they wanted to make it accessible, they could have taken 2 or 3 and slipped in the bonuses from the SNES remakes.

And what if they wanted to offer it in Japan?
>>
>>3362168
The NX is only sixty bucks?
I'm buying it on day one!
>>
>>3363485
>Lame, should have had a bit more
I have a feeling that even if every game was on there, someone like you would come along and still complain.
>>
>>3362168
Why is everyone making such a big deal out of this when Atari have been doing the same thing for years?
>>
>>3363601
because people don't care about atari anymore
>>
>>3362651
Half of those games suck.
>>
>>3363587
If it had every official NES game, people would still shit on it for not supporting rom hacks.
>>
>>3363206
>His image is completely tarnished

He seems to have been making a comeback these last few years now that he got his shit together. Kinda happy for him he was a complete piece of shit in the past but eventually turned his life around and seems like a nice guy now.
>>
>>3363623
Pretty much, though I'm sure after it gets released someone will mod the thing or hack it, whatever, so they can play whatever they want on it.

I'm not talking about every game, I'm just saying a small bit of fractionally-novel games.

Dragon warrior is a huge omission, there were all four of them actually released in the west, and there isn't even one of them here.

Of course RPGs shouldn't be the emphasis, but a handful of action hybrid ones, including Castlevania 2, is a kinda twisted showing.

Tengen version of testris would have been ironically awesome.

If they made a few special version for this, they could sell those on virtual console too.

None of my favorite games when I was a kid.
No Festers Quest
No Elevator Action
No Jaws

>>3363641
Contra used an usual mapper. Hmmm!
>>
>>3363642
They're not.
>>
>>3363514
No because it would have cost more money.

They don't have Tecmo Super Bowl on the NES Mini because Nintendo would have to buck up the $$$ to EA Sports for the NFL license.
>>
They should put a proprietary card slot on it and then release more compilations. God knows there are more than enough games for it that they already own or could get the rights to for next to nothing.
>>
>>3362168
There's nothing wrong with the game selection.
All of you're suggestions sucked.
>>
This will be mine. I might even buy two.
>>
>>3362271
I've never heard of this store but they're not too far from me. Is it worth checking out?
