Nintendo Will Probably Never Do Mini Classic Editions Again....
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- The NES Mini & SNES Mini Classic Editions were awesome... but they were made for a simple reason... a reason I think Nintendo probably won't have again for a long time. So let's look at a Japanese exclusive bundle...

Even so their true value comes in the Roms anyway
You buy one of these and you can feel guilt feel playing of the included games elsewhere especially the snes which can last you months to years depending what you you like playing or even trying out for the first time
Nintendo is going to do an N64 mini the very moment the technology becomes cheap enough to nickel & dime, with Good performance, whilst still charging a PREMIUM price. The tech just isn't there yet.
@Gametester110-qf8vs to be far though it's the most versatile of three in terms of value and that's because of both zero load times and great split screen multi-player
@@jug-a-nutstherandomizertom2598 The thing is, Nintendo NEVER sells hardware at a loss. They always like to be able to get their hands on affordable, cheap tech, that works well and they can charge a premium for with $profit$ for every unit sold. The El-cheapo Chinese SoC's just hav'nt reached that level of power yet. But once they do, Nintendo will be all for the N64 mini.
Okay I don't know what's going on with UA-cam here I'm starting to notice it more and more often that there'll be a video just like this one here and it was made 3 weeks ago at this point it says but still it will not let me leave a new comment the best I can do is what I'm doing right now and reply the one that's already been made.
Anyway with that being said that was a huge fan of these when they came out and I wish I could keep the trend going but I guess all good things come to an end sooner or later but why I didn't know it's been close to 10 years already since he sings have been out. You said it yourself in the video time flies
I can’t even believe these are 6-8 years old now. Feels like yesterday
For me its new! I recently learnt about it
I covet my SNES Classic. I waited 3 hours in the cold outside of Target to get mine on day one. I've since modded it with Hackchi, got a wireless controller adapter, a hard shell travel case, and even a 8bitdo Pro 2 controller because of its SNES design. It's the perfect package of my favorite console ever made.
I have it. Just don't currently know where to get the roms 😢
@@frankenfish1134 There are plenty of "archives" online, or, possibly, some kind of "CD-ROM romance" is out there? *wink wink*
I bought a fake one of ebay, hackchi never worked
Have you modded any extra games onto it? I’ve seen some videos where people added extra nes/snes roms to each console
@@kristoferkoessel4354 Absolutely! You do it with a program called Hackchi. Watch some tutorials to do it yourself. It's super easy 😎
I still own & love those NES & SNES Mini classics edition !!
We still need an N64 mini
look forward to Analog !!! Nintendo will never release any Mini console ever....
Being those games are on Switch online service and Nintendo wants us to subscribe to it.......they not going to make that now. Sorry 😮
Absolutely! As well as a GameCube mini.
@@shaggy791 and by the way... gamecube IS already Mini :)
I mean... it's basically Rare Replay and Switch Online.
I still want a Sega Master System Mini!
I want a Sega CD mini!
I want a N64 mini
@ShadeTempestYes and a N64 mini
Phantasy Star, Alex Kidd, R-Type, Golden Axe Warrior, Shinobi.... I'm drooling on my keyboard
@@UToobin75There was a sega cd mini though…the genesis mini 2 and mega drive mini 2. Had official sega cd games and I got the plastic cd 2 attachment which completes the look. Might be the best mini in my collection.
Im glad I got the ones that mean something to me. NES, SNES, Genesis, and Playstation.
They stopped RIGHT before the one I really wanted, the N64. I've been waiting on a N64 Classic Edition ever since the SNES Classic was announced and I realized the Classic Editions were gonna be this new successful thing for a while. Especially when Nintendo did what they did with the NES and SNES controllers by refiling the patents.
I want Genesis 2! So sad they only sold so few and only thru Amazon (?). A couple of good games on Genesis 2!
I got them all too. Lol I'm glad. I haven't played any of them in a while but I'm glad I got them. They sit out on display now lol
@@cjeelde the first Genesis mini was the better of the two mini's that came out for Sega! 🎮🕹️🎮
@@john-sp8jk agree! But there's some games on Genesis 2 Mini that I wanna have 😍 That "Sega's Zelda game" for example. Crusader of Centy? Or what's it called? I don't wanna be "that emulation gamer" and play it on a PC/Mac, I wanna play it on a console made by Sega and Sega's own controller. I want the intended experience 😍 I think that game is on NSO also but I want either a Genesis 2 with that physical game or Genesis 2 Mini 😭😭😍
I remember getting the NES Classic one first and loving it. There was a shortage but for whatever reason I was able to get one through Amazon. The SNES definitely had a shortage but I slept outside to get one at Best Buy and as I drove home in the morning I stopped by a GameStop to see if I could get one more for my buddy. I couldn't even get in the door cause the line for then SNES one went all around the building. The store likely only had so many obviously but I still go in line and waited. When I made it in I was like the 14th person in line and the GameStop staff said... "ok, people, everyone behind the guy in the blue shirt we're out of them so no more after him" the guy was like 10th in line. Everyone then left sad except me. I waited and then when I finally go upfront I asked for the SNES one and they said they may have a couple left and I was able to get one. Lol. I gave it to my buddy and he loved it. It was hard to get one for weeks after that but it was cool my buddy and I had one. 👍
The thing I don't get about these mini consoles is these companies went through the trouble to design and manufacture them. Why not re-release them from time to time? Like Konami didn't make enough of the Turbo for sure. They could easily re-release them every couple of years and sell out.
Have the NES and the SNES mini's, and I love them both.
rg...glad you got both...after what I went through from 2017/18 just getting a clone of the NES mini classic and finally an official NES mini..I'd had enough online chasing and competing..and cursing scalpers..I couldn't be arsed to even try for a SNES mini..European ones were the same shape as Japanese minis..scaled down..just as the full size were identical..just with different print..Super Nintendo instead of Super Famicom..I saw mini SFCs for sale on AliExpress but I didn't click to basket and pay..that is couple years later in Coronavirus Lockdown..I'd probably buy one now if I saw again at similar price like 50 dollars give or take
@@markianclark9645 Understood, I'm pretty much in the same boat as you on the current state of trying to give a company my money. I'll attempt to buy it at launch and if that doesn't work I'll forget it unless I find it cheap later down the line. I've been lucky enough to get pretty much all the minis including the TG16 for normal price at launch. But yeah, trying to just buy something has gotten crazy in the last 5 years or so.
Nintendo prefer to lock there classic titles behind a subscription service and sell replica controllers for older consoles instead
N64 and Gamecube minis would be dope, but Nintendo's gonna Nintendo.
Sega need to do a Saturn and Dreamcast mini
You mean Nintendo's gonna Nintendon't.
I emulate everything Nintendo screw them
Maybe sometime when the switch 2 is announced they’ll release both
So I own the NES Classic and SNES and the European version plus the PlayStation classic, but when he said that it was released in 2016. I was like no way that was 8 years ago.
Still playing my NES mini.
Connected to my TV as my only console.
If they would made cartridges for it, I would have bought games for it.
I started with the snes mini and now I have a whole collection of mini consoles.
All they had to do was re-release the original NES with HDMI and whatever games they could relicense but no they had to ruin it for everyone while wasting money.
100
Could you imagine Christmas time releasing the Nintendo with, ROB, Mario & Duck Hunt... Crazy.
It would be cool if they did some remastering with the cartridges.
And as big as the cartridges were they could definitely put an HD version along with the regular version.
Crazy this was never done
@@MetalFacedGamer Agreed. They don't want to make more physical copies so I can have one too. I'm not going to purchase something that I don't even own.
There was a line of about 200 people outside Best Buy when the NES Classic came out. I was number 50 I think, got the last one no joke. I was so thankful as they were selling for 4 times the amount for quite a while online. Does the Japanese version have the better music like the actual famicom?
These things got me back into retro gaming. Expensive gateway drug that lead to Raspberry Pi versions, RetroPie, Recal Box, FPGAs and everdrives.
The controllers are the lasting gems with the minis. With Raphnet adapters they work on everything. For awhile you could even order replacement SNES Classic Controllers right from Nintendo.
& then ?
@@hmdhm8702 no & then!
And then you plug them into og hardware...I have brand new NES/SNES/N64 controllers on my OG hardware...running both mini and wireless versions from Nintendy store
I honestly never figured they'd even try with other minis simply due to how large controllers became afterwards. N64 mini would end up being pretty weird to package and scale as a result, and the gamecube is already pretty small.
Naah it wouldnt be weird to package, use a box like the famicom at around @3:25 the controller can sit adjacent to the mini console in the box.
I would love to see Nintendo do something akin to what Atari is doing with their 2600+ system.
An emulation based system that officially uses physical media for playing retro games in HD.
That's just me, though. I'm pretty sure Nintendo doesn't care about their legacy content that much.
They don't care until their lawyers spot someone cruising near the possibility of making a few bucks off of one of their unused IPs from 30yrs ago.
Nintendo is possessed of white-hot contempt for their fans and their history.
Nintendo is taking down everyone P2P networks that has Nintendo based Roms to stop anything. Crazy they haven’t told Amazon to stop selling Emulated Game Drives
Amazon has tons of money and lawyers. I think nintendo sees it as a monetary loss to go against a top retailer of their products
That's cause those emulator drive doesn't had any Nintendo games on them. Those were mostly PC, shovelware, and bootleg games.
@@midnightowl8692, Nope, Amazon already pulled illegal products that violate Nintendo Rights. Some in amazon fake products found a loophole.
Nintendo is not afraid to see Amazon cause Nintendo has the very right to do so, and amazon even with trillion can't compromise to Nintendo. Also, Amazon just folllowed Nintendo Protocol to stop making Pre orders, So Nintendo showed the power to amazon lol
Amazon doesn’t seem to care if it steps on IPs just like it doesn’t seem to care about many state and global regulations on their packaging. They are so large and so powerful they just ignore the lawsuits.
They can't even touch Ali express neither. Selling those 12tb loaded drives
I have a CIB NES mini and a CIB SNES mini. I also managed to find an open box snes that i use when i feel like playing it. Really loved the mini retro consoles. Wish they’d do more 😊
keep it safely , it will become collector's
As a British man I can tell you I no longer care about Nintendo minis. Why? Well we are getting the GOAT of all retro soon….. The ZX spectrum!!!😊😊
These are great because they allow me to actually have Roms on different devices without the guilt because I own the classic console with the games in them. I have the Sega one too, but passed on the PS1 classic idk why it was cheap as $20 at one point.
Thats always been my way of thinking - paid my licence / attendance fee and so i've also supported them feeling. Can relate.
The PSone mini was $20 at some point because retailers wanted to get rid of them, due to the system being rushed to market and as a result, folks didn't want it.
I'm the same way. I own many of these classic games as original or paid digital emulation, so if it's on a Chinese rom console, I feel no guilt for playing it there. I will not play things though that I don't already own if it's still available to buy. Then I'm going to make sure that developer gets their money.
"Guilt" 😂
@@greenmachine5487 Exactly... Like any Nintendo executive would pull over and waste 30 seconds of their day to piss on anyone in this comment section who was on fire. They made their millons on these games when they were relevant 30+ years ago, I have no guilt loading up my Everdrives with them.
Nice Ron! Man 2016 was amazing when the NES mini dropped. It was like black friday but earlier. Grandma's elbow droppin' from the top ropes EVERYWHERE! 💥💪💯🤣👍😎
A GameCube mini would’ve been amazing
Gamecube is a mini console :) i rebuild my own with Picoboot and HDMI adapter !! and it's awesome ....
I was so fortunate to get both the snes and nes minis at retail price. Still have them. Gave me the opportunity to beat some games I fell short on as a child. I let my younger brother borrow them for a year. Got them back recently and my son plays on them both. Worth every penny.
N64 Classic would of been amazing. I loved these minis so much i even bought their Japanese Counter Parts. ❤
Love these, i got the NES, SNES, GENNY, PS classics
I couldn’t find a nes classic so I bought the famicom one.
Very neat systems.
I bought the nes one a few months later.
I eventually got the snes, super famicom, genesis, and psx ones
I mainly bought each system for the controllers vs using a pi. Seems weird but yeah.
That's pretty neat, man. I have all the mini consoles. I purchased two Snes and Genesis Model 1 mini's so I could jailbreak one while keeping the other stock. I also have both Game & Watches as well. My favorite mini by far is my Core Grafx. I actually still play it quite a bit.
I remember when the OG Nintendo Classic came out and the SNES Classic's they were so popular. I ended up getting them for friends, and I only got a small profit because it was helping them out and I happened to be working a 2nd job part-time at Best Buy.
I remember when these Nintendo mini consoles started coming out and everyone went insane. Then a year or 2 after It was found everywhere for around the price of a new Nintendo Switch game. Then It left forever. I have a Super Nintendo classic system and the Nintendo Famicom classic : Shonen Jump 50th anniversary gold edition they are fun. Cool video. ^_^
I was kinda shocked they never released the classic systems with wifi and access to a store where you could buy additional games… seems like such a wasted opportunity
They would rather just sell you a new console for that. The Wii didn't even have the ability to transfer the games if you needed a new one. I think there was some sort of manual way they could do it though.
Well if this is true then thank god I’ve had a hard drive full of ROMS for about 15 years now.
The input lag makes Nintendo classic consoles unplayable. I sold my minis recently and don't regret it. For me, it's either original hardware, hacked Wii on a CRT, FPGA, or emulation that at least incorporates run-ahead. Latency in an official Nintendo product is lazy and pathetic. Glad to see mine go and get my money back.
They make more money off a subscription service, people will keep paying to "rent" the games. These you buy it... you own it forever.
Nintendo said for around one or two years ago that they thinking about to make more Classic Mini consoles. So I hope they make a Nintendo 64 Classic Mini some time.
I have both NES Classic Mini, SNES Classic Mini and Super Mario Bros and The Legend of Zelda Game & Watch.
I was able to get a Japanese Famicom while they were still available. I was so thrilled with it I bought a Super Famicom open box but like new. Both are great! I liked the game selection better on the Japanese versions.
I love my classic's. Hard to get, but they were worth it. I feel that this was a good bridge to get people excited again about classic games. Now the Nintendo Switch Online service has taken over.
If Nintendo puts out a mini, they'll lose money. Why? It's because retro consoles are the elephant in the room now. Many people have been buying retro consoles that has all of the games (especially all of the Nintendo games) that one would ever want to play. Plus, retro consoles have all or nearly all of the games on other consoles including Sega Genesis, TurboGraphic, PlayStation 1, etc. all on ONE device! Thus, why would one want to buy just a Nintendo Mini when there are GREAT emulation consoles that have numbers like 60,000 plus games that WORK??? I wouldn't buy one. Thus, Nintendo would have to compete with those and so would Sega and other companies who would put out a mini system in 2024. It would be too little too late with those out. Plus, those consoles come from a country like China where it's legal to sell pirated stuff. I used to live there and one could buy a ton of pirated stuff that works damn good!
I never knew that they had this bundle. I wish it came out in the US. I would love to see more variations of these as well as a Gameboy and from Sega a master system. But I guess the hype is over.
N64 Mini would have been fantastic, but yeah, probably not gonna happen ever
If they had released an N64 mini they would've put less than ten games on it.
@@UToobin75With at least 12 games would've been cool.
I don't regret using my knowledge of when the SNES Classic was coming in at work to get one on launch. It's been modded, and plays all sorts of 90s retro titles now.
I had a Raspberry Pi 3 setup with SNES-like gamepads to play retro games on when the SNES Classic came out but I still bought one on principle -- Nintendo released a version of Star Fox 2 that hadn't been seen before with the SNES Classic and I wanted to encourage that behaviour.
would love a donkey kong game and watch
With DK jr included and Mario bro!
Honestly the mini's were okay, but Nintendo has far too many games to satisfy me with any mini that is limited to what it can play. Nintendo needs to do something, I don't even want to see a streaming service at this point. If you guys are good buying things you never take ownership of then have at it, I personally would like them to start manufacturing games again. They would sell, just make like a 2nd edition so you don't hurt any of the original collectors value. T
I have two of those bundles from Amazon Japan. They came with F-Zero manuals. I was obsessed with minis at the time.
It would be awesome if Nintendo did a newer version of this mini Console with some preloaded games and also you can purchase games from Nintendo Store using WiFi or Ethernet connection.
I'll forever be thankful when you put the word out back in 2021 or so that Nintendo America had some refurb NES Classics left. I love mine.
That's good. I personally got so disgusted by how few of them were out there that I refuse to buy one. I'll just play on real hardware and not give them any money if that's going to be their attitude.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade I have an original NES and cartridges. The only issue is I only have room for so much to set up. The Classic is perfect. Easy to set up and I have hacked it to be able to add more games. It was really easy to do.
I'm glad I was able to get both the NES and SNES Classics. I didn't get them when they initially came out. I got them about the time there was another shipment in 2018. I got the NES on Christmas and the SNES maybe a day after it. Fortunately one of my local GameStops had some new ones available.
I picked up a ps1 mini. Soft Modded it and it plays all the old school games. I'm currently playing legend of zelda(nes).
I thought those things were cool collectibles but it got kind of ruined by the rampant scalping
The artificial scarcity of the NES classic was why I refused to buy really any of those things. It was just cheaper to buy a raspberry pi and some controllers to go with the carts that I was already able to dump myself. I don't think that Nintendo deserved to be rewarded for such abusive tactics.
for nes classic launch day I had bad food poisening. I puked in wallmart line up for it
MLP, just wanted to say how excited I get when you release a new video. I love and like all of them. Your quirky attitude is a fun mask for your passion for video games. Please keep it up!
Ill never forget, couldnt get one, tried all day long and couldnt get one, went to my local walmart to get milk and seen a little kid packing one. So i ran back to electronics and there they were. Sitting in behind the glass. I bought it immediately and went home to play it. Then someone stole it from me and i just recently bought another one. Paid 100 bucks for it, but idk if it was used or a straight scam. The controller that came with it sucks!!! It has dents on the front of it. Bought a wireless controller for 30 bucks and i cant get it to work. The official Nintendo controller for the nes mini is 90 bucks. Im not paying 90 bucks for one controller.
What they could do is release a n64 classic edition before the switch 2 releases and a GameCube classic edition after the switch 2 releases. Then if they want to resell the nes and snes classic editions, they could do that but with the top loader nes and control deck snes models with games that didn’t make the first cut and some never released games.
I was totally in line overnight at Bestbuy for the launch of the NES Classic, it was freezing, lost feeing in my feet, haha! Good times!! 🍻
I got both and used Hakchi to mod them. Added TG-16 and neo geo to the SNES mini and i got the Sega Genesis Model II mini later on with SEGA CD titles included. I love these mini consoles, still use them all the time and I do wish the N64 got a release, but I also have my emulation on my pc I use for more powerful systems so it's not the end of the world to me personally... but having the NES, SNES and Genesis mini's is special to me because those were the era of gaming i was the most invested into as a kid. having the physical feel of the console and controller means something to me with those consoles where its not as important to me with others...
I preordered mine at GameStop. Was in line the day it came out. It was a hot Florida day.
I feel the Polymega does everything we could have wanted from these systems... well, pretty much (until the online store launches). I noticed Playmaji has base units available to buy, but the price they want for them is ridiculous.
A mini cabecube classic and a mini Wii classic would be awesome, but those are more powerful than they've made. They don't even have a N64
The main issue is the controller getting more and more expensive to make.
@@homerc9101 all they need to do is include a switch pro controller. layout doesn't matter, especially when you color code the controller
@@raycert07 do your math on the price for that controller, and no, the whole point of the consoles is to play them with the original controller, nobody is going to buy a N64 mini that has the same games as the online service but doesn't include a N64 controller
I was thrilled to get the NES, SNES, Sega & PlayStation classic. I also have the Neo Geo classic. I really wish there was a N64 & PS2 classic though.
Never got one of these i get get a ps1 classic for like 20$ at best buy way back pretty good for 20 at the time
I got the PS Classic and the Genesis Mini 2. Hacked the PS Classic and turned it into a retro gaming emulation beast thanks to your videos on it.
Greedy bastards Nintendo I’ve grown to dislike their draconian policies
I wanted one, but scalpers made me lose interest. So I never bought one.
As neat as these little devices are, they were also the exact catalyst that killed my enthusiam for collecting.
Not only were scalpers being the usual assholes they had always been, but now even the companies were playing into scamming the fans by creating this false scarcity. At a time when people were at their absolute lowest due to the pandemic no less.
These little machines only act as a reminder to me that companies like Nintendo really have zero appreciation for their fanbase or even their own history. And will gladly spit in the eye of all of it if it means even the tiniest of profit.
The SNES Mini is definitely one of my favourite gaming purchases, excellent joypads just like the originals back in the day, and a decent selection of games included, which of course I edited soon after by adding even more 😊
I missed out on the first release of the NES mini and there was no way I was paying scalper prices. I did get one when they re released them in 2018 though, and I caught the mini console collecting bug from that moment. I've got a NES mini, SNES mini, PS1 mini, Neo Geo mini, Mega Drive mini 1 and 2, C64 mini, A500 mini and a PC Engine mini. I can't believe the prices of the Nintendo minis now - looking at over £200 a piece on Amazon! The Mega Drive minis have equally as crazy value. I'm glad I have them, they are going to be my retirement fund if they keep on rising in value 😂
I bought all of these mini consoles; I have the NES, SNES, Turbographix-16, Neo Geo, Genesis I and II minis, and love them all. I would have gone for an N64 and Gamecube mini as well, but I guess they do not want to do this because they want you to rent classic games on the Switch instead. I still have hope that maybe we will get a Sega Dreamcast or Saturn mini one day.
Unfortunately Nintendo would prefer fans to play their classic games on a modern console system. Play classic game on Nintendo Switch Online is a good experience but it was nice to have classic games on mini systems.
They look cool; almost wish I had got that bundle at MSRP, but it is admittedly superfluous. The western one is great and can be modded
I think this is like the best thing nintendo ever made.
Once the switch took over. They were done with the classic.
I got one (NES classic) and i stood in line to get a SNES classic. And im glad i got it.
My cousin the GOAT, who helped me build my gaming pc, got me a NES Mini for my birthday. Best gift. Later on I added more games to it. On top of that, I still have my wii pro controllers which also works with the NES Mini. (1 with and 1 without the hand grip)
Fast forward to today, I just ordered the "Anbernic RG35XXSP" The GameBoy color scheme 😄
I am super set ♥
If I ever come across a SNES Mini, that would be so awesome..
At least Sega have said that they might do more mini consoles if people want to.
I got the snes edition ....but the lack of options to force 16:9 meant I hacked it then realised I'd get better results from a retropie so this is the solution i'm using now
I JUST bought a sega genesis mini version 2 from amazon japan. It sucks nintendo said these were just “fillers” and not something they would be doing long term. ☹️
Luv a good amount of the Mini's produced over the years. I would pay probably close to $200 for a Jaguar Mini with 50 or so games and decent controllers.
I would still rather see Nintendo come out with multi carts and a re-production of the machine with SD card and HDMI so you can play ROMs on it as well as play your original games kind of like the Atari 2600+. Give us some multi cards with about 20-30 games on each for Nintendo and Super Nintendo.
I could i sworn there was post that Nintendo filed for a patent for N64 in around 2018, so it was assumed a mini console. Maybe it ended up being for the n64 switch controller they released
I could see Nintendo releasing a Pokémon themed Game Boy Classic this year.
They would have to save that opportunity for the Pokemon 30th anniversary.
I would totally buy more Nintendo mini consoles and with a way to buy more games digitally or physically for them even if it’s limited or a Nintendo online/nintendo store exclusive etc. I think there’s potential that Nintendo will have exclusive technology in their Nintendo stores and perhaps Super Nintendo world one day
Was hoping for a N64 mini…that would have been beautiful.
That bundle looks awesome. Got my japanese version when i went pajan 2017 and 2018. Famicom was hard to find in 2017 lol
Fundamentally, people need to understand that Nintendo thinks of itself as a toy company. Everything it does follows the logic of a toy company - artificial scarcity, disposable platforms (*NO* contiguous online store/online account system? not embracing the Wii as a all-in-one living room solution?), discontinued and limited edition runs. Sony fundamentally thinks of itself as a consumer electronics company that needs hit products to drive demand for its goods. Microsoft fundamentally thinks of themselves as a software company, with games as just a genre of software.
I love my mini systems. I have the NES, SNES, Genesis, and the TurboGrafx 16. I’m NEVER getting rid of these babies!
Nintendo have a big Profit on this toys. Emulation hardware for Nes and Snes with plastic worth 20 $. For N64 they need much more power to emulate, joypad must have analogue etc. They can not sell it for 100 $. Sony tried and screwed it up by slowing down the PS1 with a low-end emulator.
I missed Nes classic when it first came out then when they announced more were being released i put my name down for pre order paid it in full on the spot and picked it up when it came out also picked up the snes mini when it came out as well i was hoping for a Nintendo 64 mini to come out but no id say what killed it was the clone consoles that were mass produced
Thanks.
I got all of the mini consoles. I really wish we could get a Dreamcast or N64 though.
If only they can do restocks every holiday
Here’s a crazy idea. Why can Nintendo and Sony incorporate FPGA chips into their consoles?
