Saunders Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 We wanted to give fans of all ages the opportunity to revisit Nintendo's original system and rediscover why they fell in love with Nintendo in the first place. The Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition is ideal for anyone who remembers playing the NES, or who wants to pass on those nostalgic memories to the next generation of gamers. The console arrives on the 11th November and will come with 30 pre-loaded titles: Balloon Fight BUBBLE BOBBLE Castlevania Castlevania II: Simon's Quest Donkey Kong Donkey Kong Jr. DOUBLE DRAGON II: THE REVENGE Dr. Mario Excitebike FINAL FANTASY Galaga GHOSTS 'N GOBLINS GRADIUS Ice Climber Kid Icarus Kirby's Adventure Mario Bros.

BIG ERN Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 It's a cool idea, but the fact that you can't play original carts is pretty dumb. You can already buy carts that have 150 of most of the best NES games already on them into a system that plays both NES and SNES. I might be a little biased since I already own most of the orignal carts that I want. However, if you don't have any it is a good value since Nintendo game prices keep going up. Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 If I didn't already own 90% of these games in multiple formats, I'd be on this like white on rice. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Nintendo will discontinue the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition and the last shipments will go out to retailers throughout this month. A Nintendo representative provided the following statement to IGN: “Throughout April, NOA territories will receive the last shipments of Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition systems for this year. We encourage anyone interested in obtaining this system to check with retail outlets regarding availability. We understand that it has been difficult for many consumers to find a system, and for that we apologize. We have paid close attention to consumer feedback, and we greatly appreciate the incredible level of consumer interest and support for this product.” Additionally, a representative told IGN, “NES Classic Edition wasn’t intended to be an ongoing, long-term product. However, due to high demand, we did add extra shipments to our original plans.” The company has no plans to produce more NES Classic systems for North America. This announcement includes the discontinuation of the NES Classic Controller. As for third party accessories, Nintendo said the decision whether or not to continue production of accessories will be up to each individual manufacturer. Link Quote Link to comment
