Nintendo Is Bringing Back The NES — Seriously
The company announced a mini version of the NES that will come loaded with 30 classic games.

Call it the year of nostalgia for Nintendo.
Following the hugely successful release of the Pokemon Go smartphone game, the Japanese video game company announced Thursday that it will be releasing a modern version of its massively popular NES video game system.
The new system will be called NES Classic Edition and can fit in a person's hand. It will come loaded with 30 classic games. The Verge reported that it will cost $60, come with a controller and use HDMI. Unfortunately, the Verge reported, it won't be compatible with your old cartridges or controllers.
