For the record, they do have earlier versions of the Retron. They wouldn't have the filters that this one would have that is supposed to smooth the graphics out to make them look better on high definition nor would they have gameboy compatibility, but if you're dying to play your old NES and Super Nintendo again, the old ones compensate for those systems (and Sega Genesis.)

I don't know, maybe it's because I'm getting older, but outside of the sports games and some of the shooter games, I don't have as much fun with games today as I did back in the days of Nintendo. I could play Zelda, Super Mario, and Punch Out for hours. After about an hour of PS3, I'm good. I will say, I love the advancements of sports and wrestling games, although I think the THQ wrestling games for the Nintendo 64 were top of the line!
In so many ways I agree. A lot of the shooter games, especially when played online, involve dark environments and make it really hard to tell where an attack is coming from. If I can't see or find what's hitting me I generally lose interest pretty fast.

Maybe that's a sign that today's systems are leaving me in the dust. But I definitely appreciated the older games. Plus there's the nostalgia aspect, when I pick up Zelda I'm immediately taken back to the days of rolling out of bed on Saturday at 8:00 am as a 10 year old and spending the morning with it until it was time for pancakes.
