I use NES-FC LiteLinks to good emulators in google play store? And to games?
Not if they scale the picture down to like 32" standard tv size. The games will be playable in that mode with a bunch of black screen around the perimeter or other graphics floating around. Unless they upgrade each of these games which would be a great improvement to each of them. The concept = cool, the application of said concept = questionable.This will look awful on HDTVs.

No Ice Hockey or Blades of Steel
I have my original NES which I had cleaned and also replaced the cartridge reader (sent it to Nintendo). I also sent Nintendo all my cart's to have cleaned and tested. Cost me all of 35 bucks back in 2008.I think the controller would be a big difference. I downloaded an emulator for Baseball Stars to an old phone, I had a lot of fun with it, except the touch screen controls made diagonal control impossible. I would easily pay $60...heck, $100 for one of these if it came with Baseball stars and would get my money out of it no problem.

I have Baseball Stars, Tecmo Super Bowl, RBI 3, Tecmo Basketball, Tecmo baseball, Bases loaded 2. You name it.....I probably have it. Golgo 13 anyone? All 3 Ninja Gaidens, and some gems like Silent Service, Goal (soccer). The Lone Ranger, Ring Kings, Mike Tysons Punch Out....so many games.

It's there. At the main menu enter:No Contra?
Thanks. I'll check it out.I use NES-FC Lite

My dropbox is there ENJOY!!!
I'm so mad at myself. My original NES was the only system I ever got rid of. I have half a dozen other systems in a box in the basement. They got pulled out every once in a while for nostaligia, but if I had an NES with all my old games in working condition, it would be out permanently. Genghis Khan?

Thanks. I grabbed a few.belljr said:
I used to be very good at video games. I tried call of duty and felt sick playing as it was too hard to control and hurt my eyes. I suck at Madden too and miss the days of Bo Jackson or Christian Okoya (sp?) running over and around guys zig zagging down the field.Capella said:As mentioned in the gamer thread...I just can't keep up with these modern games. I took the new donkey kong back because it was too hard for me. I played call of duty for like 30 minutes before switching it off for good. Some of us are old and suck at games. Last time I played madden I was down 49-0 at the half and some dork was ####-talking me over the Internet. #### you kid I own a house and have a career. Despite loving Star Wars I didn't even touch the last game because it was online only. So this is the perfect speed for me.
Only drag I could see is if the controller needs to be connected to the console. Does anybody know if it's wireless?
So I get this and play on my phone. Even with a Note, that is a small screen. How is that better than the new console option? Obviously cheaper, but other than that?belljr said:Get something like this - this one was $19

You can even pair a PS4 controllers to your phone
I'm not saying the console is bad. I'm just saying you can play on phone/tablet with a controller - PLUS I have ROMS not being offered.So I get this and play on my phone.

Exactly, fanboys from the 80s are going to buy these up like hotcakes. Perfect addition into a man cave. Last video game system I bought was a PS2 in the 90s, last game was NCAA 2002(2001 Canes). I think this will pull more folks into the modern games as well. Already large numbers but it might open a little more market in the over 40 crowd.Capella said:They are going to sell a ####ing ####-ton of these. I'm guessing it'll be the hard to get gift.
I'll get it for punch-out alone. I bought that for my Wii-u a year back and it's really replayable.
And I travel a lot. Seems like it would be easy to take along.
OK, gotcha. I'm generally in favor of buying items like this vs playing ROM, since I want to support companies that make products I enjoy. If there are certain games they don't make that I want to buy, maybe I'll pick up the controller to play on a ROM.I'm not saying the console is bad.

It makes great AIRPLANE kill time on the phone. I've had these for probably 10 years, so I just feel like it's late. Like I said I'll probably get it.
Thank You. I have not bought anything by Nintendo is almost 2 decades but I am all too eager to grab one of these.OK, gotcha.

That's because Atari is like B&W 8 bit and I think NES is a little more advanced. What most of us liked was being able to just pick it up and play. At some point I had to start buying "How To Beat the game" manuals and codes and it started to become work.Brony said:Atari Flashback sucked big time. For most of these games, the 1st minute is great reminiscing with the old sounds etc, but once you get into gameplay, they quickly lose me.

Yeah, Double Dribble is conspicuously absent.No Tecmo Super Bowl, Double Dribble or RBI Baseball.
:middlefinger:
I'm sure double dribble is on the horizon. I bought it for the Wii off their classic game marketplace.Yeah, Double Dribble is conspicuously absent.
And RING KING! Come on people. RING KING!!!
I wonder if this comes down to third-party developers, and Nintendo not having/shelling out for the rights?All I want is Contra! Is that too much to ask? Why is that classic so g-d hard to come by?!?
Human nature, we were all born with some Nintendo instincts.Has it ever been explained how we all knew how to do this? In the era before the internet, this spread nationwide in, what, a year or two and everyone knew the trick?
One of the original pre-internet memes, this thing went viral faster than some things do today.
I wouldn't be caught dead in a pair of Nintendo themed Vans but can vouch for how awesomely comfortable the lows are. I buy a pair every year and they're basically my version of flip flops.http://www.vans.com/shop/vans-nintendo
Some of you should eat these up too. I bought two pair, never bought them before but haven't had to wear them cause it's hot out here. I don't like the low pairs but some designs are neat. Was hoping for Metroid or other Zelda's but no do.
Hmm, will reconsider if this is $60 for effectively a few games with limited replay value.So it's not expandable, there's no way to connect it to external storage or the internet to update with new games. It's a stand-alone as is device. Like the Atari and Intellivision "console in the controller" games from a decade ago.
I would think there has to be a way to play more games? Even if there isn't, $60 is an attractive price point.So it's not expandable, there's no way to connect it to external storage or the internet to update with new games.

Very true. This thing looks pretty bad ### though and has the cool looking controllers.Apparently doesn't have any inputs. Only outputs. The "door" doesn't open, it's just molded plastic. There's nowhere to plug in anything to update the software.
Maybe someday someone will figure out how to access the EEPROM memory chip and solder in a new card, but probably not worth the trouble.
You could buy an original Wii for about the same price and or some ROMs on there and have the full classic NES library.
Is this difficult to do?VA703 said:pretty cool
I modded my wii to hold 2k roms from nes snes 64 genesis Saturn & neo geo
or else id be in for one of these!
I don't think most kids will like this. I took my 10 year old to this old school arcade in Illinois last year. I am not kidding you that they have arcade cabinets and pinball machines in the high hundreds, probably anything you played back in the day and her reply was 'meh'. Kids nowadays are not impressed with old school graphics.Bobcat10 said:I have little interest playing these games on a PC with a keyboard, some tiny handheld device, phone, etc. Or really with anything other than a old school Nintendo controller in hand. This also seems very portable for work travel which interests me...and can even take on vacations with the kids. There's a few titles missing that I'd want, but maybe they are saving some good one's for an expansion module of some sort for next year.
Hey, you can never go wrong with pinball. NEVER!!!! Someone who is not impressed with pinball... sheesh.I don't think most kids will like this.

Worth $20 at most. Like people are saying, if you like Nintendo you can buy a game on the Wii site for a few bucks. Or you can get an emulator for free.I would think there has to be a way to play more games? Even if there isn't, $60 is an attractive price point.
I know, I was surprised she didn't like it more.Hey, you can never go wrong with pinball. NEVER!!!! Someone who is not impressed with pinball... sheesh.
