Out of nowhere, Nintendo have announced a new console! While we eagerly await any information regarding their Nx console, a new version of the classic NES has been announced! While it won’t play carts, it has loads of games preloaded, and has USB connectivity too (which hopefully hints at adding more games in future updates). The list of games are stone cold classics, which would cost an arm and leg these days, so at approximately £50, this seems too good to turn down! Here’s what Nintendo had to say in their press release;

Relive the 80s when the Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System, launches in stores on 11th November.
