At my ripe age, I still enjoy taking some time by playing video games.  Mostly with my son, but he prefers the first person games on the Xbox 1.

I still enjoy the old school games like the Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Brothers, Pac-Man and a lot of the others.  Somewhere in the annals of my house, there is a box that contains my old NES and Sega game systems.  Wouldn't it be nice to not have to dig that out to play most of my old school games?

Well, here is the good news.  According to insidethemagic.net, Nintendo announces a Mini NES with 30 of your favorite games.  Here are the games that come with this system:
