Nintendo NES Classic Experience: This is a broken toy

Tencent Digital (Shawn) among the three major game manufacturers, Nintendo is undoubtedly the most rigorous control of the game. Whether you want to play in the latest works in its game series or revisit past classics, you must buy a new Nintendo console. But with the advent of the NES Classic, Nintendo's game restrictions have finally relaxed a little, even if you do not buy Wii U or 3DS, you can use it to play 30 classic NES games.

However, the console's own limitations are quite obvious: it cannot connect to the Internet, does not support hardware upgrades, and does not provide any way to purchase games. In other words, it is purely a toy that lets you relive childhood memories.

The compact body is a major feature of the NES Classic. Its body size is 12.7 x 10.2 x 1.4 cm, which is similar to a set-top box. In the body design, this game machine has restored the NES. From the two-color plastic case to the red text of "Nintendo Entertainment System", people immediately think of the popular game machine.

However, unlike the NES, NES Classic does not require a game card. Just plug in the power, connect the TV with HDMI, press the power button, and select the game you want to play from the menu.

The NES Classic's handle is also a reproduction of the NES. The look and feel of the NES Classic is almost exactly the same as the original. This handle uses the same interface as the Wii joystick, which means you can also use it to play NES games on your Wii or Wii U.

NES Classic has 2 handle sockets, and 16 of its built-in games support two-player games. In this way, you can also relive your childhood time with your buddies.

As a game machine that sells feelings, the game works provided by NES Classic are naturally crucial. To say the biggest advantage of this console is to provide a wealth of games at a fixed price. However, on the other hand, its game is completely fixed, and users can no longer add or modify it.

Although some players may want to replace one or two games, the quality of this game library is already quite high, including many classic works of first- and third-party. Nintendo's approach is also particularly meaningful for new players: In a sense, NES Classic is like a time machine for a new generation of players. If you are interested in game development, you should try these classical works better.

From a technical point of view, NES Classic also performed an excellent simulation of the original NES. There is no apparent delay in the control input of the handle, and the overall feel of the game is very sympathetic. It really is like playing the original NES game instead of the virtual machine.

However, there are some minor problems with the use of NES Classic. For example, when running "Galaxy Warrior", too many enemies appear on the screen will cause obvious dropped frames. In addition, a vertical line of split animation appears on the left side of the screens of "King of Dreams" and "Super Mario Bros. 3".

Of course, these are minor issues that do not affect the overall gaming experience. However, if NES Classic can be networked, these problems should all be solved.

Experience

On the software level, everything in this console is for players to get the same experience as the original NES. The games in the game are all displayed at an aspect ratio of 4:3 instead of 16:9 for modern widescreen TVs. Although the black borders on both sides of the screen are a bit annoying, this is actually part of the experience. For these games, the effect of displaying the original aspect ratio is definitely better than being stretched to 16:9.

If you haven't experienced enough retro, you can turn on the "CRT Filter" function in your game console. As the name implies, this function blurs the game screen to make it visually closer to the old TV. For those players who are older and have played NES on CRT TVs, this feature should help them to retrieve their memories.

At the same time, NES Classic also offers some more modern convenience features. It allows you to archive at any time, just like on a PC simulator. Pressing the reset key will take you to the archive menu and press the key to view the game's archive slot. However, NES Classic only provides 4 archive slots for each game, and players cannot manage them manually.

Shortcomings

NES Classic is not always good for classic restorations. On the hardware level, the NES Classic needs to switch the game and switch on and off through the buttons on the body, which cannot be controlled by the handle. Although this is the same as the original NES, it is always a hassle to get up and back, especially for players who are “spoiled” by the current game console (their handles are provided with dedicated function keys).

Although the NES Classic has a very high degree of handle reduction, the 30-inch (76.2 cm) cable is too short and most players may not be able to play on the couch. Nintendo's explanation is that the NES Classic's handle line is intentionally made very short so that the player can reach the power and reset keys on the body while playing the game. But for whatever reason, these two shortcomings are doomed to shut out some consumers.

to sum up

Nintendo NES

Classic is not perfect, it has some design flaws inside and outside. But even so, the experience provided by this small box is absolutely first class, and its price is only 60 US dollars (about 406 yuan) only. As mentioned above, you can indeed use other ways to play NES games, but for Nintendo's loyalty, the attraction of this game console is unmatched.
