NES Classic Edition

NES Classic Edition, released as the Nintendo Classic Mini: Family Computer in Japan, is the first entry in Nintendo's Classics line of dedicated home video game consoles. It was released in November 2016. The console's design is a replica of the Nintendo Entertainment System, or Family Computer in Japan, as well as the two controllers included with it. Both iterations of the console include ports of thirty built-in games originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System and Family Computer, and a fraction of the games included are Mario-related. All of the games included are emulated, somewhat like the Virtual Console releases, and feature support for save states.
Both the NES Classic Edition and Nintendo Classic Mini: Family Computer were very successful, and copies of them almost immediately sold out in most places. Shortly after its release, the NES Classic Edition received a successor, the Super NES Classic Edition, a dedicated home console that similarly emulates a line-up of Super Nintendo Entertainment System games. Initially, in April 2017, Nintendo announced they would cease development of the NES Classic Edition, but following excessive consumer demand and the success of the Super NES Classic Edition, Nintendo re-introduced a limited run of the NES Classic on June 29, 2018 before ceasing production altogether in December 2018.
