8-Bit Oversights: Games That Should Have Been Included In The New Mini NES Classic Edition

So, Nintendo's got a new mini NES with 30 games packed in.Here's 12 classics they snubbed.

It is called rights, and RARE is no longer got any rights with Nintendo. as for some of the others, maybe someday they will be added VC games can be downloaded to it FYI

[RosweeSon]

Rare have got all the rights to their games FYI. The only games rare don't own the rights to are where Nintendo characters are involved I.E the donkey kong games, Diddy Kong racing etc. Hence why banjo is on Xbox ;)

Rare developed but doesn't own Goldeneye 64.

i find it funny that you think nintendo didnt give careful consideration to the 30 games it included in the collection.

any games not included were left out for a reason.

[Sitdown]

Super Dodge Ball was great, but how do you forget Track and Field, Double Dribble, Skate or Die, Paperboy, Bad Dudes, Top Gun, Blades of Glory, WrestleMania, Tecmo wrestling, bomberman, etc

Every game should have been included are you kidding?!

[slate91]

what size are these pixel games? And can they only fit 30?

[HisRandomFriend]

There are probably about 5MB worth of games here. I didn't feel like doing the exact math, but considering these games average from 8KB to 128KB My estimate may in fact be too high. The user interface will probably be about 1GB (1024MB) so I'd be surprised if this thing even holds 2GB, honestly it probably costs Nintendo less than $5 to make one. That being said I'll probably still buy one since it looks pretty neat.

Agreed it does look good. Im just being a spoiled american and wishing it was more than 30 games or at least a promise to add future titles

[gerbwmu]

At one point it was reported that the Wii had enough memory to fit every game in the library of NES & SNES in it woth room to spare so I think these 30 games take up even less then your estimates

[Stevonidas]

My God, people will find ANY reason to bitch at Nintendo. Can't let there be any good news for the Big N...

I agree with the list. I guess Duck Tales couldn't since disney owns them and the RARE stuff too. I would have liked Castlevina 3 though, and Dodgeball is awesome. I would have liked to have seen Bomberman & Joe & Mac too. Overall though, pretty good.

As for Tetris, whenever the Mini Gameboy (hopefully Game Boy Color, but they use the classic GB design) comes out, that should most definitely be on that
