The games are already on Switch and PS4 but i’d likely be in for this if good

I remember games were up to Ł200 a cartridge back in 1991. Factor in inflation and that is Ł430 today. Ooof. Hence the reason I've never met anyone that actually owned one.

As nice as that is, i'd probably stick to the Switch games. Portability and all.

Hurry up and short out the Virtual Console, Nintendo! Even Sega are bringing their classics over to the Switch...

Fairly credible looking leak. Effectively a miniature arcade machine with 40 games built in. Has outputs for tv play and control pad ports too. I suspect this will be too expensive for me and that's if it even gets a European release

lol yeah. Good point. I still sort of harbour dreams of owning one, having lusted over them at ECTS at Earl's Court at some point during the 90s
