Do you remember the 1980s, when you were glued to your television set playing video games like Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong, Galaga and Pac-Man?
If you do, then Nintendo is tapping into some nostalgia for you.
Its newest product is called NES Classic Edition, and it's a compact, hand-held version of the system, which debuted in 1985. It sells for $59.99 and plugs into a television set through an HDMI cable. There is also one classic controller included; additional controllers cost $10 apiece.
There are 30 pre-installed games included in the NES Classic Edition. There are several versions of Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Balloon Fight, Kirby’s Adventure and more.
Nintendo is also giving customers a chance to adapt the look of the screen. A player can view the games in modern, high-tech form or revert to a retro look.
