They have included 30 NES games, like the all famous Super Mario Bros. Metroid, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and Kirby’s Adventure. And unlike the old days, you don’t have to buy additional cartridges as all the games are built right into the hardware.

But you can’t use your classic NES cartridges with the new system, neither you will be able to use your original NES gamepad with it. The console will come with its own version of the old gamepad with similar looks as the ones in the olden days. For two-player games, Nintendo a second NES Classic Controller is available for an additional $10.
