It's genius, they'll just sell an improved version a few months later It's baffling, I don't understand why they don't want to make money It's irritating, but it was just an overpriced bunch of old games anyway It's infuriating, I still want one, and now I'll never get one It's Nintendo, that's just how they run their business View Results Discuss today's poll and previous polls on the Poll of the Day Message Board. --- Not changing this sig until Pat Benatar is in Super Smash Bros.

kkeevv 04/14/17 1:48:40 PM #3:	If it had actually been supplied enough to meet demand, I would have gladly gone out and bought one. However, the lack of supply along with the cheap production (tiny HDMI cord, really?) really turned me off of the idea. Nintendo doesn't host the greatest JRPGs (my favored genre) and their consoles are typically fairly gimmick-y, so since the gamecube I only buy a Nintendo product if a game REALLY catches my interest. --- twitch.tv/Tsarius1 3DS FC: 2723-9913-0988 (please message me here to add) <cite>kkeevv posted [p:877188085] in How do you...

UnclePhart 04/14/17 2:38:59 PM #5:	Meh. I just bought an Nvidia Shield instead. I can play every NES game, along with SNES, Genesis/Sega CD, Atari 2600, N64, PlayStation, MAME, PSP and MS-DOS, all in HD. It goes for $200, so in a few months it'll probably be cheaper than the Classic Edition anyway. "But Phart," I can already hear the pusillanimous mewling of naysayers, "Emulation is illegal!" To which I say: Yep. It is. So is smoking pot, running yellow traffic lights, and recording the Super Bowl. I've done all those things and so have you, and years later, there's still no tear gas grenades smashing through our windows. <cite>UnclePhart posted [p:877191035] in How do you...

faramir77 04/14/17 2:54:54 PM #7:	I'm completely indifferent. The controller cord was like 3 feet long.
