Oh sweet, I'll be getting at least one of these.

It won't replace the old nes due to being emulation / locked to 30 games but the hdmi port and the good selection of games makes it a must for me.

It won't be long till someone figures out a way to add the whole NES library to it.
I won't be getting one as I've got about 120 NES carts for the real deal

i like this, hopefully will be getting one...did any one else ever buy "A boy and his blob" on release day lol.....sadly i did and it cost me £39.99 back in the day lol....

Just in time for a Christmas cash in, tapping that nostalgia for the max haha. I can't really see how its different from all those other tv plug in XX in 1 games, aside it coming from Nintendo. Admittedly it does look cool, and it is official, but I'd prefer the original thing at the end of the day. So many of the games came out again on the GBA and on their digital services, it seems a bit of a waste of money, unless your a completest. I wonder if they'll do a Snes one the following xmas!

Yes I did

I instantly regretted spending the money and lent it straight to a mate who really enjoyed it!

I'll be getting one of these for sure, it looks great and I really like the selection of games included.

Very surprised by this release by Nintendo but I think since they changed there logo this year back to its red one is a sign they are embracing the past a lot more.
I will buy this great for the front room.

I've preordered mine on Amazon already. Such a cool little thing

looks like the pads are same port as the wii controllers... so perhaps the NES pads will work for the Wii/Wii U VC games!?!?!

It connects to your TV via HDMI and even comes with that classic NES pad, which can also be used with your Wii or Wii U

 

[Bensonrad]

I do like the idea of being able to use the pad on a Wii though, that's cool, might have to get a pad.

Saw this on HUKD, made me chuckle

 

[Hurray Banana]

pre-ordered one for my arcade competition next year at college

I love the mini famicom but you'll need tiny hands to play it! Those built-in controllers are minuscule!!

 

[Brettster]

@ Rich
Yes got the Mini Nes too

The current issue of retro GAMER issue 160 has some NES Classic Mini content within.
