I absolutely love this! I knew about this console, but not the specific games or the price. This is amazing. Love their choice of games, love the price point. Can't wait!
Yes!!!!! I am excited. Here I thought Nintendo was going to keep making poor decisions
What about other people?

Today the company announced what it's calling the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition. It looks just like a NES, only a lot tinier, and it comes with 30 games built in. You can connect it to your TV via a HDMI cable, and it also includes a controller designed to work just like the iconic rectangular NES gamepad.

No idea why this took so long - they did this for Atari 2600 ages ago and I believe there is a Sega version, although the latter has a poor selection of games. I guess the only question is whether to wait until the inevitable SNES or settle for this in the interim.

Wow...this is amazing! I still have an original NES and many of those games in my basement.
I will probably be buying this. My NES did not work very well (most games could not run at all) so i got rid of it. My only other choice is an emulator on PC.

no Blades of Steel?
TBH some hours are going to be burnt on that... I just hope it does the games justics.. I still remember being amazed at the graphics it produced on Super Mario 3!
Experience is the teacher of all things.
I'm so buying this. My oldest son is turning 4 in October, so this is just perfect timing to get him started with a lot of the same games I grew up with! (well technically, I guess that would have been Atari, but whatever)

Really wish it came with Double Dribble, Blades of Steel, Baseball Superstars, and obviously.... Contra
Why not Super Tecmo?
While I love the concept of this, they could have hit a homerun by better game selection. But it's still a double.
