As we reported yesterday (14) here in Canaltech, Nintendo announced that it will relaunch its first console, the NES, with the 30 most iconic games of embedded platform in memory.

The statement was made to the portal UOL Games, which have asked to Nintendo itself what were the chances of the island to get to Brazil. With launch confirmed for Europe and North America, the console will hit outside stores with those who are the 30 most iconic games of his time, among the included games are titles like ‘Super Mario Bros’ , “The Legend of Zelda ‘, ‘ Mega Man 2 ‘, ‘ Kid Icarius’ ‘Ninja Gaiden’ ‘Donkey Kong’, ‘Castlevania’ , Metroid, and ‘ Final Fantasy . “

in addition to having a reduced size compared to the NES 80, the relaunch will be compatible with Wii classic controller, and newer televisions via a port HDMI . The price charged by the device is also quite symbolic: $ 60, a value close to a big game for the Wii U, as the new ‘Mario & amp; Sonic at the Olympic Games Rio 2016 ‘, in the US it costs exactly $ 59.99. In direct conversion to the real, without considering the additional fees and costs, the new NES will cost approximately R $ 200.

In an interview with Kotaku, the US, Nintendo said that, at least so far, also has no plans to repeat the idea with other classic consoles in its history, as the Super Nintendo or Nintendo 64. it is expected that the console is available in north American retail from November 11 this year.

Since the beginning of last year, Nintendo withdrew completely from Brazil. Because of this, it is likely that the new Nintendinho only arrive here via specialized importers, and a saltier than the equivalent price charged in US dollars. Does nostalgia compensates import the gadget on your own?
