Why 21 games?
It's such an odd and low number.
What was Nintendo thinking? Why not 30 games like the NES Classic Mini, but +1up it with one additional game?
What additonal 10 games would you have added to this rather lackluster and disappointing collection to make it worthwile?

>why give 30 games to the goy if they will pay the same price for 21
21 games to match the the 21 year olds that will be buying it for the retro appeal. They could sell the damned things with a single game and people would still buy them.
Because it's intentional.
*pay more for 21
Snes games cost more on the e-shop. Value wise it would make sense.
They literally don't need to. Sheep are eating this shit up despite it being a blatant ripoff. It's as disgusting as microtransactions and on-disc DLC.
Someone needs to buy it so we can get that Starfox 2 rom for everyone else.
>Why 21 games?
Because it's in no way interchangeable with the NES. You know what should be maximally interchangeable with the NES mini? A PCE mini!
Actually, it wouldn't even have to be much of a mini, since the PCE was already so compact, but still, a PCE classic edition needs to be released, with gamepads interchangeable with NES ones.
Hey man, 100mb of storage is expensive. It's not like these things are going for an exorbitant price or anything.
:^)))))
Doesnt matter. Only scalpers will get a hold of these things.
By this logic, I cant wait until they come out with the N64 Classic and it'll cost about $120 for 12 games.
>Why 21 games?
Blackjack
Don't know how much N64 games cost on the e-shop but you could actually be right. If they ever make one that is.
They're $10 for N64 games on Wii U eShop. I'm sure they'll make one and it'll sell out in 10 minutes.
I think they'll stop at N64 though. The NGC would be too recent and it would be stupid high in price.
1. Chrono Trigger
2. Turtles in Time
3. zombies ate my neighbors
4. DKC 2
5. DKC 3
6. wild guns
7. pilot wings
8. sim city
9. tetris attack
10. one of the super nintendo star wars games
This would be dope actually, since N64 look like ass on HDtv's. Someone would hack it and make it able to play N64 roms.
desu i'm missing only Terranigma, Illusion of Time, Soul Blazer and Chrono Trigger
but i'm sure someone will find a way like they did on the NES mini so you can add additional roms :^)
Probably because they figure Star Fox 2 adds real value?
Shit man, I don't know. I got a NES mini and hacked it. I'll do the same to this.
>paying for roms
Yes, I am. And there's nothing you can do about it cause I got money to blow.
Don't know if it's been mentioned, but why would anyone buy this when you can just emulate for free. Pretty sure I'm the first person to mention this. And here's a bonus one: has anyone heard of Raspberry Pi? You can load full romsets from many retro systems onto an SD card. Just wanted to pop in here and make sure you guys are all aware of these points. Haven't seen any of them posted yet. To summarize: you can emulate all these games for free. Just a reminder in case anyone was unaware. Peace
is a hacked nes mini 100% compatible with all nes games? i heard its pretty easy to brick it.
some people feel its wrong to pirate 20 year old games for some reason
i am aware this, i have a Raspi for this and i have the roms. exactly like the original console and the games.
i'm just buying this because nostalgia
Moralfags. I have a super everdrive and love it.
If anything someone will buy it and hopefully dump the complete starfox 2.
Thats like basically every decent title nintendo can still package together in the n64 bundle lol!

My normie girlfriend would only play the games if they were playable on an actual console otherwise it would "feel" wrong.
Don't underestimate how much feeling and the emotion of opening a shiny box feels to normies.
It's not about the end result of playing the videogames. It's about the entire experience of the smell of new electronics when you open the package. Reading through the setup guide. Connecting the controllers. The first feel of the controller in your hand. Turning on the system for the first time on your screen. Seeing the UI of the main menu and then clicking the game to play it for 1-2 hours and never touch it ever again.
Normie consumerism.
>Nintendo doesnt want to take orders or preorders
>My local retail is making a waiting list like this shit were a kidney
Fuck nintendo fucking scalpers
1. Aero the Acro-Bat 2
2. Bust-a-Move
3. Earthworm Jim
4. Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics
5. Kirby's Avalanche
6. Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures
7. Pocky & Rocky
8. R-Type III: The Third Lightning
9. SimCity
10. Super Turrican
All cheap licenses, with possibly the exception of Sim City.
>Don't know if it's been mentioned, but why would anyone buy this when you can just emulate for free.
Simple answer is: It's an official console from Nintendo. That in itself adds value to it instantly. This is why normies want it. It's an official product.
>BotW
>blunder
Yeah, the game that keeps getting 10/10s everywhere and it's a smash hit in sales is a blunder..
>9. SimCity
my fucking nigga, i know Sup Forums hates this word but it legitimately has a comfy soundtrack.

Who else is scalping these? Already got 3 today, gonna make tons of money off retards.
where are you from? i still cant find any listings here in canada.
>21
how the fuck is this a 'blatant ripoff"? you sound like a complete faggot
>how dare anyone charge money for anything? i should get it free!!11
Have you played it?
It's going to get very technical, so bear with me:
Some (many) of those games are third party. Third parties want their cut. Almost all additional games people would want on it are third party.

Remember Nintendo can't just instantly re-release games, they have to pay off whoever holds the copyright to the IP. And the less you have to deal with Disney, EA and Ubisoft, the better.
France.
Doesn't matter. It will get hacked in no time and we will be able to expand it with the full NES, SNES, GENESIS libraries
I bought the replica NES Classic off of ali express for 40 bucks and you can't tell the difference from the real thing. Same internal menus, AR symbol instructions, selection of games.
Fuck the knockoff even has the official nintendo logo in the same spot using the same font.
But deep down you know it's not the official one, and it'll haunt you forever.
NES games are pretty shallow
the SNES classic includes longer games like Earthbound, so it more than makes up for it.
>Who else is scalping these?
Fuck you.
>The cartridge slot is actually real and you load an expansion game set they sell in december
NINTENDO
It's 7x3 and in Japan 7 is a lucky number, read up on Shichifukuin (七福神).
Get fucked. I'm making plenty money thanks to retards like you. Just emulate the fucking games.
Yeah but some of the games people consider missing are already on virtual console or are straight up nintendo games
I have. I love it. Definitely 10/10 to me.
>in Japan 7 is a lucky number
I thought that was everywhere.
You can get it for free.
I don't like playing ROMs on a laptop or computer monitor, so I would be tempted to buy this if I couldn't get a raspberry pi to emulate instead. Dumb people who are influenced by consumerism would purchase this because they are unaware of the raspberry pi's emulation capability.
You will never own one.
Not even japan got the best co-op game
Also if you had not played this game with a friend you're missing out. Expect to get your shit pushed in though.

>>Already has DKC, redundant
Oh,so I guess since the NES Mini already had the first SMB they shouldn't have bothered with the others :^)
they wont put underrated games in there, it wont have the casual appeal
They really do.
I bet you're the same kind of fuck that scalps amiibos too. Fuck you again. Taking things away for kids to make them pay more than they should.
Yes, I played for about 120 hours and enjoyed it greatly. Have you?
I never scalped amiibos though. And this is Sup Forums here, stop acting so retarded because "muh children".
genesis does what nintendont
>being a weenie
The main game was boring and the world felt empty. I felt no urge to explore and simply went directly to my objectives (the four divine beasts) then killed ganon. It was boring and easy. I did a 3 heart Ganon run which was a fun challenge, but it was short. At no time did any of this feel like a "Zelda" game. It felt like a generic open world action RPG. While I understand that there are people who like that genre, I do not and I especially do not like it when a series I enjoy decided to recreate itself as a genre I do not like. To use a food analogy as those a big with you big guys:
>I go to McDonalds for burgers
>they try to serve me pasta
>it's good pasta, but I wanted a burger and complain
>people get angry at me for not liking this 10/10 pasta
I can't wait to drink the bitter tears of Nintendo fans on September 29th.
These things already sold out in the UK. There was only a tiny shipment despite Nintendo saying they were going to make more. This is going to be a massive disaster.
No they aren't Amazon keeps putting up more of them every few hours.
Completely sold out.
Argos has them. Stop being shit at everything including trolling.
Nope. Sold in waves. They don't put up all of them at once and then that's it forever.
Cause Nintendo doesn't fucking own Pocky and Rocky.
>Taking things away for kids to make them pay more than they should.
Taking things away from kids because manchildren will pay too much for them
This is good for two reasons
1) Children learn the value of video games as software, not plastic crap
2) Manchildren are bankrupted or forced to grow up
Scalping classic editions is just being an asshole though. Well adjusted people buy that for nostalgia or so their kids can easily experience the same video games they did.
>so their kids can easily experience the same video games they did
This is exactly why I want to get the SNES Classic. My (wife's) son is 2 and going to need vidya soon. This will have a good set of games for him to start on.
They don't own any game they license. We still get them on VC and classic editions.
That's not the issue. The issue is pocky and rocky is obscure as fuck.
The Gen Z eat this shit up. It doesn't even matter the price because their parents buy it for them, even scalped prices. It's fucking sad.
wasn't that leaked ages ago?
Yeah, just don't ever pay a scalper. That's just as bad as scalping, and you lose benjamins instead of gaining them.
My mom told me a doctor she knew payed $600 for a NES mini because his wife played one when they were dating. Even if you are rich as fuck and money is no object, how do you hand it over to someone you know is a total rat bastard?
>giving your kids video games
It's like you didn't learn anything after all these years.
we can only hope
>have SNES and Genesis everdrives, best investment i ever made
>Downloaded Nintendo romset years ago thankfuly
>tfw i'm about to put a modchip in my Sega Saturn
I'm not paying scalpers for old games at ludicrous fucking prices, i'm just waiting for the day when ps2, GC and OGbox games are ridiculously priced, i've been buying all the good ones for cheap the last few years though, and have had the rare ones since childhood
people who buy this are normies, hipsters, or retards
If no one ever bought anything from scalpers, scalpers wouldn't be able to sell it at such crazy prices and would be forced to either sit on their stack of boxes for eternity or lower their prices until it's close to MSRP
Really makes you think, doesn't it?
Yes, as in they run, but good luck with Duck Hunt
No, its pretty hard to brick as long as you keep the power cord away from your dog while its flashing
>Need a gun for it to be good
>wild guns
Did you even play that game?
>how do you hand it over to someone you know is a total rat bastard?
I fucking never would and i'd give anything for the sweet chance to ruin these people if it were ever possible.
>$80 for an emulator that only plays 21 games
Fucking why? They could sell it for $20, make 10x as many, and still sell out on the first day with more profit.
It's either that or one day he'll come home from school and say "Daddy I learned about this cool game called Minecraft at
>sell it for 20
full retard
Its his wife's kids so its cool
Because Nintendo are a bunch of greedy kikes.
30 games should've been the minimum
What games are sorely missing that Nintendo wouldn't have licensing issues with?
Just hack the snes mini and remove all the games except ghouls n ghosts, castlevania, and contra 3. Don't blame me if your child develops adult sized genitals.
Those three SMB games are actually distinct games. The DKC trilogy is very samey.
>get snes mini for 80 bucks, comes with controllers and a fucking great upscaler
>hack it
>put all snes games I want on there
>enjoy
Definitely Donkey Kong Country 2 and 3. Especially since they're both better than the first.
2 is good but 3 is kinda meh
