Really looking forward to this!

 

[Deku Tree]

Tyson or Mr. Dream?

 

[Savitar]

So glad they brought this slogan back.

I had the stupidest grin on my face when I saw that.

 

[Plum]

Tyson or Mr. Dream?

Mr. Dream of course.

 

[MrNelson]

Tyson or Mr. Dream?

Dream

 

[Deku Tree]

I'd rather fight Tyson. No thanks.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

I'd rather fight Tyson. No thanks.

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! hasn't been in production since 1990 and it's never been re-released.

 

[DeepEnigma]

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

Hahaha, my cousin loved that game... I despised it.

 

[Plum]

I'd rather fight Tyson. No thanks.

Go emulate it, because I honestly doubt Nintendo will ever want to officially release Mike Tyson's Punch Out ever again.

 

[1upmuffin]

I'd rather fight Tyson. No thanks.

The deciding factor for you buying or not buying the NES Classic is a Mike Tyson sprite?

 

[jmizzal]

Just let me preorder it NOA lol

 

[Based Calla]

I was gonna get this day one, but my mom saw it and said she wanted to get it for me for Christmas. So that's neat. Can't wait!

Tell her when the pre-orders go up so you can get one before it sells out (probably), haha.

 

[AdanVC]

Holy cow that was so cool! Love their new slogan as well "Now you're playing with power... again!" Yup, this thing will sell loads. Just hope they can keep up with the demand.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

So is Japan getting a Famicom Classic Edition or are they sitting this one out?

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

I'd like to mod an SD card slot under it.

 

[crimzonflame]

Black Friday & Christmas.

Fuck. Sold out till summer 2017.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Nintendo please get your fucking emulation right and stop screwing people over.

I only buy SNES and GBA games on the VC because of it...

 

[Spieler Eins]

Looks like good emulation for once, thank god. I was getting nervous when I was reminded of Nintendo's shit job with the Wii U Virtual Console (which I thankfully never bought, except these 30 cent deals).

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

Can't wait!

 

[Plum]

Fuck. Sold out till summer 2017.

Just keep an eye on pre-orders.

But yeah, this is gonna be big. Not Wii big, of course, but it's pretty much the perfect "gaming gift" that isn't a $300+ console.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

The NES Classic - you don't have to blow us anymore

 

[BrokenFiction]

GIMME GIMME.

 

[hans_castorp]

Into my veins please.

SNES when?

 

[Ryng_tolu]

This is D1 for me.

 

[Ansatz]

Good emulation: check.

However I'm not confident they'll expand the game selection, plus I would need both DuckTales games for me to consider it a complete collection which isn't happening.

 

[Ultima_5]

This box won't expand the game selection dude

 

[OrbitalBeard]

However I'm not confident they'll expand the game selection,

Nintendo's already said they're not.

 

[1upmuffin]

They already said they won't. And DuckTales would be a tricky license to get.

I am confident they will not expand the game selection. And the DuckTales games have be licensing nightmares...

edit: beaten.

 

[Comet]

I'm in fucking heaven with this thing. Just release the numbers already NoA. Papa's gotta get a preorder in on Amazon

 

[DeathSparks]

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

Might as well put Action 52 on there.

 

[Pinky]

Both grabbed from Youtube for a fair comparison:

Wii U:

Mini NES Classic:

Thank God. This is good news.

 

[dallow_bg]

I forgot about their filter business.
I'll wait until reviews of the final unit then.

 

[Lothar]

They at least should have the 30 best games. Not having Castlevania 3 or Mega Man 3 or Contra is crazy.

 

[TH-Work]

Now you're playing with Power

 

[teiresias]

I dislike the lack of scanlines or any kind of CRT emulation - particularly since the opening shots shows scanlines and CRT-like display before going to actual feed from the device.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! hasn't been in production since 1990 and it's never been re-released.

How rare is Mike Tyson's punch out..? I have the original cartridge myself...but i don't really care about having NES physical around any longer with this on the way. How much could i get for it i wonder

 

[Deku Tree]

Yes 100%.

 

[TheDinoman]

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

"don't talk to me or my son ever again"

I'll never understand why people salt sweet fruits or throw ugly distortions on pristine pixels.

 

[oti]

That controller cable looks awfully short, doesn't it?

 

[DeepEnigma]

Hard to tell, it is coiled up behind the pad, and thinner.

 

[Pellegri Testament]

Considering how many games the system has and how many of them are considered the "best", it would be impossible to do so in 30 games, especially since it's pure opinion what people consider to be the best.

 

[MilesTeg]

This is a one time buy, Nintendo doesnt want anyone buying more games for this thing they want you on their other platforms eventually.

I think Nintendo is only doing this to have something new on the market for the holidays given their current platforms are relatively old. I do not think they would be releasing something like this if they had new hardware out or coming out.

Im sure the profit margins on this thing are insane given the lack of system storage, wi fi, cheap wired controller, and of course the hardware running the games.

 

[jet1911]

Day 1. I'd day 1 a SNES mini too. Probably a N64 mini too.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Damn, that thing is tiny!

Both grabbed from Youtube for a fair comparison:

Wii U:

Mini NES Classic:

YEEEEEEEEHAWWWW!!!!

Now let's hope it stays that way!

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.

pls no

A loose cart sells for around $25-$30 on Ebay.

Don't know about that tbh.

 

[Chuckl3s]

This commercial gave me chills. Brought me back to 1980s.

What was the point of a dark filter? Can someone explain for this noob?

 

[RadarScope1]

Not rare at all. Most copies of the game likely sold between 87 and 90, with Tyson.
