No NES Classic Edition? Here Are 7 Better Alternatives You Can Buy Today

People are fighting who gets their hands first on the NES Classic Edition. Some are taking advantage of the situation and selling the console at exorbitant prices. Why do you have to fight tooth and nail just to get that small piece of box where you can play old pixelated games? You say it's all for the sake of nostalgia. If you're looking for that, here are 7 better alternatives you can buy today.

Retron 5

You can play games from 8 retro-consoles, such as NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Sega Genesis, Master Drive, and Famicom. It works off Android OS emulators so you have the advantage of saving your games and accessing built-in cheat codes. However, you have to supply your own game with this.

Retro-Bit Super Retro Trio

Play your NES Classic Edition, SNES, and Sega games here. While Retron uses emulator software, Retro-Bit uses hardware emulation which gives you the feel of the original console. Like Retron, you have to provide your own game cartridges for this.

Atari Flashback 6

If you are really in for some retro gaming but don't have your old game cartridges, then this one is for you. It is pre-loaded with 100 games and 2 wireless controllers. It also works with any display that has RCA cables.

Sega Genesis Classic Console

If you are a Sega fan rather than a NES Classic edition fan, then this is for you. You have an option to go for the console or the handheld version. Both has 40 pre-loaded original Sega games as well as 40 other unofficial games. The console, however, does not save some games that use on-cart progress saves.

Wii

Wii is already considered retro what with the Switch coming soon. The Wii is the reason why you buy the digitized version of most Nintendo classics. It's a good time to revisit that moment and the game titles are as robust as ever.

Nintendo 3DS

The 3DS has a lot of retro games in its library with 185 game titles that spans starting from the NES to the Sega Game Gear.

Retro Freak

This Japanese console emulates almost all classic consoles from Famicom to SuperGrafx. It has a replica of SNES controllers, an SD card to add more games as well.
