Update from Nintendo
The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Classic was a huge hit because it looked like the original NES and had some of its most popular games.

We've known since last year that Nintendo was planning to bring back the Mini NES, now we have a date.
From June 29, 2018, you'll be able to buy the NES Classic Edition in stores in the US
Thankfully, Nintendo says they'll be available until the end of the year. The console costs $80.
The NES Classic was initially released in November 2016 and was a dramatic success. It comes with classic games like Super Mario Bros 3., Metroid and The Legend of Zelda. Later, Nintendo also launched the SNES Classic. Both have been in demand since their release and Nintendo has struggled to keep up. Other manufacturers like Neo Geohave jumped on the trend in the interim. A Sega Genesis Mini is set for release later this year.
Hopefully I can get my ninja paws on one this time! And July 2nd is my birthday! 
Happy EARLY present for me!
