The NES Classic Edition sold out quickly after its release in November 2016, but soon you’ll have another chance to get one at retail price. The $60 micro console is coming back to retailers on June 29.

The NES Classic Edition is a miniature version of the original Nintendo Entertainment System. It comes with 30 built-in games, including classics like Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Mega Man 2, and Castlevania. It connects to modern TVs through HDMI. The system became a huge hit, selling out quickly and moving 2.3 million consoles. And then, oddly, Nintendo stopped stocking them.
