NES Classic Mini Announced!

Nintendo has announced a new pseudo plug and play, called the NES Classic Mini. This mini console will be released on November 11th for $60, supposedly. You can buy an additional controller for $10 if that's up your ally.
The set comes with the little NES, a controller, an HDMI cable, and a USB cable to power it. If it comes with an AC adaptor is unknown for North America, but it won't in Europe. That is easy to get around with a USB charger. The controllers are like classic controllers and use the same connector, so you can use a Classic Controller with the console, sold separately of course.
Most importantly is it's list of games. I'm not going to list all of them, but here are some highlights:
Double Dragon II, Final Fantasy, Mega Man II, Super Mario Bros. trilogy, and both Zelda games.
I'm glad that they'e doing this because my NES has seen better days. With this, you can play classic NES games in (hopefully) 1080p with save states and relive the glory days of Nintendo. I can say already that this will sell like hotcakes this holiday season.
