If my Facebook page is any indication, there's a ton of thirty-forty somethings dying to get the Mini.

As there should be.

Also an SNES mini would be amazing.

I would love that. I also would love an N64 and GCN mini systems.

It would be even better.  Honestly, there's a lot of games on there that I have no desire to revisit and the others I mostly have on VC anyway.  I think Startropics is about $5 on VC so I may as well go that route.

But if you purchase all 30 games on the VC it would cost $150. This system has 30 games for $60 that is $2 per game.

Regardless of the price you're still paying for crappy looking games.

Can touch it?  Is this a graphics obsession?

I'm no graphics snob, but I draw the line at 8bit. Sad that the last time we had decent 16bit games was on the GBA

I draw the line at Atari 2600 I can't play those games.

I can play NES games they still look good.

For 3D I can only really play from N64 onwards.

I think some of the PS1 games look terrible though I can still play Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Heretic.

I don't really remember the 2600 I played a few games on it but I grew up with the NES since it was already out when I was born.

There are a handful that are good. Fishing Derby, Stampede, River Raid, Pinball and Space Invaders and Pac-Man are decent enough.

Also, hopefully I can spend some time catching up over the weekend. I've been largely off the internet for a couple of months due to having extremely limited freetime.

Hope things work out for you and you can get around to enjoying some quality time with us and our stimulating conversations.  Then again, lots of work most likely also equates to lots of money to buy gaming paraphernalia at inflated Australian prices.
