MaximumRD Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 I don't know, screen size 3.5" UGH. At least they got a real prototype though. You can emulate NES on just about anything now. OK I KNOW but it plays original carts, there have already been a few NES / Famicom handhelds not sure there really needs to be yet another but I guess fans will decide.

StormSurge Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 Yeah, that screen seems really small. I love the NES but I'm not sure I need to be able to play it anywhere, at anytime. I wish them luck though!

AlamoAtari Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 I only see Zelda, and not a lot of gameplay. I don't want this to be vaporware, but sure as hell looks like it is.
nosweargamer Posted May 9, 2016 Report Posted May 9, 2016 Currently 3 things give me pause about this: 1) The general amount of KS projects that haven't delivered 2) The fact that these guys don't seem to have any experience in hardware 3) The fact that Nintendo could easily send them a cease and desist letter concerning the rip off Game Boy design So in the end I could see this being halted by Nintendo or the developers coming back saying that it's going to cost more than they anticipated or that they've encountered unforeseen problems leaving backers in a very long wait for the product.

RickR Posted May 10, 2016 Report Posted May 10, 2016 That looks awesome, too bad it's so expensive. I see them for $80 on ebay.
