Is this device really going to be as hot as it is hyped? Maybe get an exclusive Amiibo... or maybe the device can act as an Amiibo...? :confused:

What's the deal? The Keyring?
Isn't £49.99 just 'the price' ?

When do they take money for the pre-order? Is it an instant pay where they sit on the cash til release, or a money out just prior to release?
I agree with others, the 30 game static limit is annoying. First thing i looked for was a mention of an SD slot or otherwise. Im still sorely tempted though as it just looks so cute!
Still might just get a retron 5 though, and play all the original cartridges for NES, SNES, GENESIS, GAMEBOY and whatever else it plays (with expansion slots).

It's good... but quite Carling!
I love the tiny design, but 30 games is pitiful. Xbox conversion can offer so much more including 700+ NES games, 3000+ SNES games, 400+ N64 games and many more across a number of consoles...
Get a free Wii U if you pay £299.99 :stuck_out_tongue:

ive drifted off it. 30 games just isnt enough for me to bite. free bits dont tempt.

It's expensive considering the hardware costs very little to make, and you only get 30 games. Just get an old PC/Laptop plug it into the telly, a cheap controller and use emulators. But obviously I get why people would want one for nostalgia's sake. I had a Master System II so the NES doesn't do it for me :smiley:

That bad could have looked so much better but they just went on paint and pasted multiple NES controllers to fill the whole blank space. :disappointed:

Bag flap is reversible and personally I prefer the other side.

It's not a free bag, it's just a bad description by the OP.
It's just a bundle with a bag that is £10 more, nowhere on their site do they say it's free, just this description for some reason says that.

Thanks, ORDERED!
Got it with the Mario plush, Some cheap little collectibles too
The reason your post got downvoted was that it is cheaper elsewhere. This post makes up for that by including free stuff that exceeds the value of the price difference hence it was upvoted. RRP with no free stuff is not a deal.

I'll go for the toy as it's worth more. Already got keyrings on all my sets of keys.

Already pre-ordered from Zavvi for £44.99 so I'll stick to that.

I can't find info anywhere if you can add more than the 30 games, like is there an expansion port like sd card... anyone know?

There's nothing can be added or installed it's the 30 games and will never be any more/less.

Think of it as plug and play. It won't have ability to buy and play games from VC either, which is a shame! It's not a bad bundle but could have been amazingly good with just a couple more features!

Well seeing as this is the RRP and those that have been 6p under have gotten decent heat, surely this should do better. Hot
