You can keep your PlayStation 4 Pros and Xbox One Project Scorpios. Give me back my Nintendo Entertainment System.

Nintendo is releasing the NES Classic Edition on November 11 for $60. This standalone device is a miniature version of the company’s first console, which revived the gaming industry in the mid-’80s and rocketed Nintendo to the top. The Classic Edition comes with 30 games, including heavy-hitters like Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda.
