Nintendo, the record console
Who does not remember the times when games like Super Mario Bros or Castelvania were played with Nintendo? It was 1987 when a real video game revolution took place in Italy with the arrival of the Nintendo Entertainment System. The new console finally brought home games of a quality that until then could only be found in arcades. This console quickly achieved a series of incredible records. It was the best-selling, with nearly 62 million units sold worldwide. It was the longest-running, with its production from 1983 to 1995. Finally it produced the best-selling video game in history: Super Mario Bros.
More than a console, an icon
Many people still jealously keep the Nintendo with the melancholy typical of those who have spent entire afternoons playing with it. It's not that they still use it, but it always has its charm, just like a modern piece. After all, even in recent years it is a flourishing of gadgets that trace the shape of the console or controllers. Thus, wallets, smartphone covers, bags, T-shirts and even underwear inspired by the famous product are sold.
Nintendo Classic Mini, where the past merges with the future
But for those who didn't keep a console in the closet and for those who were too much healthier skin for playing it, Nintendo decided to do a typical nostalgia action. From today it will be possible to buy the Nintendo Classic Mini at the price of 60 euros. A small tribute to a great myth. The small console has over 30 of the most classic games in the Nintendo repertoire. Among the titles stand out Mario Bros, Zelda, Castelvania and Bubble Bobble. The device can be connected directly to the TV, as in the original version, but with a little gem. You can choose to play with a video setting that will simulate the effect of old CRT TVs. In short, a real godsend for those who grew up playing with this console.
