Probably a worthless question, but this thing must have internal storage to have this work, based on the size of all the games featured on, how much capicity you think it has, and could there be room to inject more by future release of some device by nintendo via expansion port perhaps? Just curious, nintendo has a history of addind some extra port that no one knows what it does until they reveal some new accessory in the future, Gameboy link cable, bottom of N64 and Gamecube, VIRTUAL BOY!!!!! :P

Responding to what Veho said, this is what comes to mind. :creep:

But i mean is in HD, has save states i guess, now only if it had cheats like game genie, and speed up, rapid fire and such, i maybe would find it worth more. :D

this is the case, thye should do better than piracy with the content, not worse XD and actually, famicom/nes system are now public domain, an fake console that run the game can't be called piracy... but with the games it still xD

Eh, no their not.
You clearly don't know anything about the public domain.
When things get into the public domain, the copyrights have expired or the company behind said product has ceased to exist (aka copyrights expire)
Generally it's 70 years.
The Famicom/NES are barely 30 years old, so it's AT LEAST 40 years until they fall into the public domain.
Not to mention, it's Nintendo's property, so I HIGHLY doubt it that it'll ever enter the public domain.

Now that I said that, NES/Famicom games aren't "free" to pirate nor are CD-i/Atari 2600/Magnavox games.
Abandonware is a legal grey area, but generally aren't legal as well (copy rights still exist and they expire 70 years after making)

It already cost 130€ on ebay not including shipping. If i was living in the us i would buy like 30 of them and selling them for ridiculous prices to people's like me who live outside the us. Fu** ebay and fu** those resellers who do what i want to do. By the way if you see "italready" instead of "it already" it's a problem on this site not mine.

I really, really, really hope this becomes a thing. I'd love to see an entire official line of "mini" consoles from Nintendo, considering how cheap they are compared to the originals, and that they could potentially be enhanced with online play 'n stuff

I never considered other mini versions. About the online play, I wish they capitalized on Melee and not only remaster it, but add online play like Dolphin did in emulating that game. Mini SNES should have Super Castlevania IV, Mortal Kombat 1 or 2, Super Mario World, Yoshi's Island, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, DK Country, other stuff.

GBA micro³²

Do most of the japanese market think re selling stuff that is old like new and making it smaller with more restrictions a good idea?

  • Wii mini
  • wii mote small controller
  • gameboy micro
Where is the game cube support? of all the things people really ask for and it isn't done yet? o_o
not sure about smaller wiimote (but seens so), but the wii mini was western nintendo idea, it and wii"family"(that monster without gamecube support), that they don't even launched in japan ... almost like 2DS but 2DS went there for some reason ....
Know the guys that HAVE to censure mature games so pre teens can play, don't take a lot of " too strong" stuff from japan and like to make toy-like stuff? well is what they do :P

Gameboy mirco mini when?

WHAT IS THIS? A GAME BOY FOR MINISHI?
lol
It's cute, but I'll stick with the Famicom I already own.

nice! XD
Also, nice photo o3o
I like more the classic famicom design but this AV version is very nice

At last it was used for that in Famicoms back in the 80s in Argentina. (But my memory may fail me...)
there was like these in argentina? I think the famiclones dominated the latin america ... but well it wasnt my time XD I have very few memories of a famicom box in my house, my older bro don't remember how it was :P but I saw very lots of dynavision on my life xD

well when I searched about famiclones what they say is that, that the console is legally to be made XD

I HIGHLY doubt there would be more than a 1 or 2GB ROM inside of it
