I guess I don't see the business reasoning behind doing a "limited run" of an electronic device that there is demand for and that you could sell a ton of. It's not like you have master craftsmen in a remote mountain village building these things out of ground up baby dragon bones.Well mostly I'd say because there isn't "demand for" this item and you couldn't "sell a ton" of them. I mean, nintendo makes some dumbass decisions but they know how to make money.
The NES Classic was a pretty niche product. A handful of games, and I mean...60 frickin' doll-hairs? For a fixed library of 30 games? 60 bucks would buy you a pretty passable tablet that you can run literally any game you want on. I know I know "But nostalgia" yes, nostalgia. Which is exactly why it was a limited run at 60 bucks a pop.
I still have my NES, with a bunch of games. Easily half the games available on the little mini classic. And it hasn't been hooked up since :dunno:
