The $44 console that looks like an NES Classic but is 100x better is back in stock on Amazon
The NES Classic Edition flew off store shelves from the moment it launched right up until Nintendo cancelled it earlier this year. In fact, units are still selling on Amazon at a massive markup, and plenty of people are paying sellers’ asking price. If you want a more sensible retro option that’s actually much, much better than the NES Classic, definitely check out the Hyperkin RetroN 1 HD Gaming Console for NES. Instead of limiting players to a handful of games that come preinstalled on the console’s memory, The RetroN 1 HD takes original NES cartridges so it can literally play every single NES game ever made. Trust us, you’ll be glad you snagged one of these instead of the NES Classic Edition.
Here are the key details from the product page:
HD audio and video (720p), 16:9/4:3 aspect ratio switch
