The main chip in that thing is actually surprisingly powerful. Smart phones have really pushed things forward. :leon
If the chip works as advertised by Chinese manufacturer AllWinner, as opposed to being customized for the NES Mini in any way, then it includes a dual-core Mali-400 GPU which could be powerful enough to pump out as many as 55 million triangles per second (in its 28nm, 500MHz variant). There's also a quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU, which has been clocked at 1.2GHz in smartphones, as well as 256MB of DDR3 RAM and 512MB of NAND flash storage.

Couldn't I just play the NES games in my browser? ???

Your browser isn't going to let you relive your childhood memories for 60$.

People are paying 100% markup on this and I don't know why

1. Holiday shopping madness
2. Nostalgia
3. Desperate Nintendo fanboys

It's probably one of the best Xmas gifts because it's concise and everyone will get something out of it.

Well, shit. Now I want one.

Apparently this sold out all over the place and is super marked up now on ebay and the like. :lol

People buying them shits for $300 on ebay, lmao.

Who could have predicted Nintendo would fuck something up???
-
It's an intentionally short first run to build hype. There is NO WAY they're rolling into Christmas with a shortage on these.
If they're really this underprepared for success, the company needs to perish.
-
Yeah it seems like Nintendo does this with everything they release except the Wii U which was a failure. Definitely an intentional strategy.
-
Damnit should have bought some to sell off
-
They were doing this back in the nes days, even with copies of popular games.
I'm happy with my AVS, but I could see myself sneaking in a Mini at work :win
-
its telling that the only nintendo hardware to sell out is a nostalgia trap for 30 somethings
-
I bought two systems and a controller without issue.
:idont
-
I bet they have them at the Nintendo World store.

You're not finding these anymore.
And now that they're a hot commodity online, scalpers are going to be hold their hard cocks in one hand while swiping their credit card in the other.
