maxdrive 8 years 8 months ago Posts: 581	do you think that the companys will ever remake the old consoles for fans of retrogameing like a new atari 2600(not jsut a flash back or a plug in with 10 games) or a new version of the nes. seems they could make a flahs back with a cartrage slot so they could put 20 2600 games on each cartrage that way you could play more then the 20 games the system came with jsut plug a new cartrage in with 20 diffrent games. because when i want retro gameing i want more then 20 games then have to buy a new flash back with 20 other games on it.

Personaly I dont think it would happen. It does not seem like it would be a big seller. Look at the Atari and NES games and compare them with the X-box 360, Playstations, and the Nintendo systems. I am not saying they wouldn't sell, just not a big seller. And By the way spell checker is your best friend

Look at the Messiah Generation NEX console: http://www.playmessiah.com/onlinestore/ plays every nintendo and famicom game(almost) on completely new hardware. I hope we see other consoles remade as their patents expire aswell.

The controllers look a little janky but It looks like you can use the regular NES controllers and accessories with it.

I hope we see other consoles remade as their patents expire aswell. There are several companies that unofficially make 'new nintendo's', although that one definately looks the coolest. I have one called 'YoBo', that I picked up from a flea market for 20 bucks to keep from puting miles on my original NES. They're all over ebay as well. As far as companies officially re-releasing the original consoles, I don't think that will happen. The closest we'll see is 'best of' discs and the newer consoles which will allow you to download old games.

Its a toploader too, so theres no dreaded flashing blue screen. The plugs for the controllers are the same as the old NES controllers, so any NES accessory should work with it. I have the light gun and the power pad and they both work on it.
