So glad they brought this slogan back.

Anth0ny · Jul 21, 2016

I like the somewhat retro presentation

BUT THEY NEED TO GO DEEPER

DeepEnigma · Jul 21, 2016

Nostalgia in full effect. Day One!

dglavimans · Jul 21, 2016

Jeej @ the now your playing with power!!

dickroach · Jul 21, 2016

I didn't realize it's so small. I feel like it'll be moving around like crazy; the classic controller cables are really short

themagicalkitsune · Jul 21, 2016

Cool. Now lemme preorder it

Jonneh3003 · Jul 21, 2016

No dark filter confirmed.

OrbitalBeard · Jul 21, 2016

That's one heck of a nostalgia trip. If that ad plays on TV, it'll sell a bunch of units.

CengizMan · Jul 21, 2016

This product is so random, I love it.

nubbe · Jul 21, 2016

Hope it has a CRT filter

Lionheart1827 · Jul 21, 2016

This is pretty cool, love the old school slogan!

Now make a MiniSNES!

Pinky · Jul 21, 2016

Super excited for this!

Moff · Jul 21, 2016

couldn't they just put all the games ever released on the NES on this
they should do that with the snes as well

bumpkin · Jul 21, 2016

As a kid who grew up with an NES, I fucking love this trailer/commercial.

...now let me preorder the thing.

DeathSparks · Jul 21, 2016

Here's what the NES Classic Edition looks like in comparison to the original, this is from SDCC

Licensing hell. So no.

BarrenMind · Jul 21, 2016

Anyone know how long those wired controllers will be or if this will work with any type of wireless controller?

Sounds like an easy job! Just google the roms Nintendo. Or use a torrent!

Neoxon · Jul 21, 2016

That was a great ad with just the right amount of nostalgia.

Idiot · Jul 21, 2016

Do we know about save/suspend states for this lil guy?

antitrop · Jul 21, 2016

Perfect way to do that trailer.

crimzonflame · Jul 21, 2016

Why cant they release it tomorrow?

That's...really interesting. I wonder why it's enabled on Wii U, then. Is it also present on the 3DS VC?

This gives me hope that NX VC won't have the filter.

Idiot said:

I believe it has save states, according to the original press release.

EDIT: Whatever this means, this is what it has:

And if you ever need to step away from the NES Classic Edition in the middle of a tough level (or take a break to call one of Nintendo’s helpful Game Counselors*), don’t worry about losing any hard-earned progress. Each game has multiple suspend points, so you can start where you left off at a later time, no passwords needed

OrbitalBeard · Jul 21, 2016

Idiot said:

Yep. Multiple save points for each game.

maniac-kun · Jul 21, 2016

It looks great! I really want to see what the game selection menu looks like.

-shadow- · Jul 21, 2016

I hope the cable will be a lot longer than it seems. Because I do not want to sit right in front of my screen...

Jonneh3003 said:

Now bring this over to the WiiU users!

Or technically get rid of it...

I don't believe so no. But I know for sure that NES Remix (on either platform) doesn't have the filters regardless. So it's just some terrible decision making.

Oh, what the hell. I might just buy it for display purposes.

Black Friday & Christmas.

It really is small.

Diddy Kong · Jul 21, 2016

I mean, I own most of these on VC already, but I guess I need this too.

DeepEnigma · Jul 21, 2016

Man, this little device has hit the nostalgia so well, I am itching to see that the NX will be now. I have not purchased a Nintendo console since the SNES, and the last hardware I purchased from them was the DS Lite when it hit (mainly for the GF at the time).

I kept holding myself from pulling the trigger on the Wii U for a while (due to the price not feeling worth it), since I wanted to play the new Mario so bad on it... but this is definitely giving me that nostalgia vibes to finally jump back into a Nintendo system come NX, (and that Zelda doe). It will complement the Neo perfectly for gaming in my home.

Notice the "Product Under Development" disclaimer.

Just wait until they run this through their flash/pattern analyzer. Dark filter will return, you can count on it.

synchronicity · Jul 21, 2016

So good! Cannot wait!

Creamium · Jul 21, 2016

Great little trailer. Perfect marketing for this thing so far, the retro site looks good as well. Gonna sell like crazy

That description is why I'm not 100% hyped yet. It does give me some hope though.

Hopefully this thing's playable at SDCC, so we can find out for certain.

Lionheart1827 · Jul 21, 2016

Whats under the cartridge lid? or is it just part of the outershell and doesnt actually open?

Mr. Poolman · Jul 21, 2016

Okay okay I get it Nintendo, i HAVE to buy this!

Licensing hell and price due to that. You would not see it for sub $300-400 if it included everything, which is far beyond what the target audience for this would pay for a trip down memory lane.

Hatty · Jul 21, 2016

Will buy if there is no ugly filter over everything. Why people are afraid of pixels is a mystery to me

redmetal86 · Jul 21, 2016

I wonder if there will be an Australian ad.

30 YEARS LATER AND YOU STILL CANNOT BEAT US

If you look at the released pics, it's clear it doesn't open. Just part of the shell

Jonneh3003 · Jul 21, 2016

Both grabbed from Youtube for a fair comparison:

Wii U:

Mini NES Classic:

Mac the KNife · Jul 21, 2016

Yeeahhh Mini Regular Nintendo for all.

Plum · Jul 21, 2016

Nintendo just needs to put this ad on TV and they'll be raking in the dosh. I really do think they've hit something quite significant with this, but it's all to be seen whether that translates into actual sales come Q4.

Most people would rather save money and not have Fester's Quest.
