Because these things are a fad. How long did that super sweet Atari retro thing last? Now it's bargain bin at Bed Bath and Beyond. That's the eventuality of this. Retro is cool as a thing for a short while, and they'll make a pile of money from people who don't know how to install an emulator or buy a RetroPi off of ebay, all the while keeping VC titles away from their main gaming device so that, instead of investing in retro nostalghia at mass on buying yet another gaming device, I could purchase the games I know I want to play, experience and beat.

People buy these types of devices for no other reason than to member the nostalgia, not to actually play and experience the game. (See the Secret of Mana news. I actually want to play and beat that again, NOT just experience the nostalgia of having it and looking at the title screen).



How many people who have an NES classic have routinely gone through and beaten every game again? How much play time does it actually get?
