    Huh, I wonder if the "The controller is the bottleneck" rumor is true?

    So, for those who've played the console. . . are there any games on it that make you go "Why did Nintendo include *this*?"

    No. I think all the games on the list are solid choices and signature NES games.

    Nah. If anything I'd want more games. I don't feel like anything is out of place. It's a solid little collection.

    It makes no sense they would cease production completely yet.

    It was something to sell during Christmas. I can understand the reason. I just really wanted one.

    I get a limited sale window, but unless manufacturing costs of disproportionate, I don't get pulling the plug while demand is still high. Unless I'm greatly misinterpreting the demand. This thing has been hard to get since release.

    Or are setting up a way to buy those games individually. For a higher price.

    I'm glad I got myself one and even more glad I kept the box. In the future I see Nintendo doing more of these limited run nostalgia based novelties. They should just be more up front about them being limited run items.

    ^ makes me so Happy and Angry because I know this'll be another short supply situation made worse by the NES classic pent up demand that remains.

    Hopefully Nintendo dials up the initial production run more for this one, if true. I mean, they can still aim conservatively, just not quite as crazily short as the NES Classic.

    Yeah, this has the potential to sell even better than the NES.

    Way better.

    Especially if they include 20-30 games.

    I didn't really pursue a mini-NES because this is what I really wanted.

    Will definitely attempt to pre-order this one if it becomes real.
