In this video, we discuss the HUGE announcement from Nintendo regarding the NES Classic Edition's return in the USA.

Since it was first announced in 2016 the NES Classic Edition, or NES Mini, has been a super hot commodity item. This normally $60 plug-and-play system has been selling on eBay and other 3rd party reselling sites for $200, $300, even $500 or more a the height of the craze. Nintendo announced in early 2017 that production of the NES Classic was all done, that they were focusing their efforts on their next home console, the Nintendo Switch, leaving fans disappointed and scalpers licking their chops.

In Summer 2017 Nintendo announced the follow-up to the NES Classic, the SNES Classic Edition, but they also indicated that the NES Classic would once again be seeing a production run. Not just a run but that it would be produced en-mass for anyone who wanted one to get one. That was the messaging with the SNES Classic as well and, for the most part, Nintendo delivered a better experience with the SNES Classic. You could get them in the wild, scalpers were selling them for next-to-zero profit, giving hope to many for 2018.

Nintendo of America has finally announced the planned re-release date for the NES Classic as June 29, 2018. The system is unchanged from the original version, once again including 30-top games from the era including:

Excitebike
Ghosts N’ Goblins
Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest
Super C
Double Dragon II: The Revenge
Ninja Gaiden
Ice Climber
Donkey Kong Jr.
Balloon Fight
Mario Bros
Bubble Bobble
Donkey Kong
Galaga
Kid Icarus
Punch-Out
Gradius
Pac-Man
Tecmo Bowl
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
Final Fantasy
Metroid
Castlevania
Dr. Mario
Kirby’s Adventure
Mega Man 2
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2
The Legend of Zelda
StarTropics
Super Mario Bros. 3

This should, once and for all, end the process of scalpers and the NES Classic Edition. This does leave us wondering, however, how will Nintendo follow-up the 1-2 punch of the 8-bit NES Classic and 16-Bit SNES Classic?
