NES Classic Edition

Nintendo NES Classic Edition

You've probably heard how the Nintendo Entertainment System -- that staple of the 80s -- is back in miniature form, and it's pretty fantastic.

The NES Classic ($60) has 30 games, including iconic titles like Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Castlevania and Mega Man. Unlike the original, you can't buy new cartridges for this system. They're all built-in, and unfortunately, there's no way to go online and add new games.

But it does come with few modern conveniences, including HDMI to display the games in crisp HD and a save feature. This that means you won't have to leave your NES switched on for days to finish Super Mario Bros. 3.

The whole thing is housed in a miniature version of the original, including the classic boxy controller.

The only problem? Finding one. The NES Classic Edition is quickly selling out everywhere, but retailers seem to be getting new stock on a regular basis.
