I didn't see this on here yet. Nintendo announced the Mini Famicom in Japan much like the Mini NES in North America. It comes with 30 games, including some exclusive ones, as well as two controllers. The downside seems to be that the controllers are shrunk and it doesn't come with an AC adaptor. Anyone interested in importing this little guy?

Re: Mini Famicom
No AC adapter as in no way of powering the system? I would think they would ditch the HDMI cord before ditching the power cord.Kreegs wrote:I didn't see this on here yet.

If shrunk controllers you mean the 3 ft cord length, NES mini is like that too unfortunately. I guess the same cord length as the classic controller for Wii? Pretty sure you can use those as controllers on this.
I don't know if they thought short cords would relate to nostalgia (even though they were never that short), or if they thought you need to be close to the system anyways because you have to press reset on the hardware to change games.
Maybe they just wanted to force everyone to play like this

I'd consider importing it if it included Battle City!
