FC Mobile Portable NES, Because One Screen Was Once Enough

By Mark Wilson on April 29, 2008 at 1:10 AM

Since Nintendo’s patent has dropped on the NES, we’re finally seeing all of the Nintendo gear that we could only dream about as kids. The FC Mobile is such a product, bringing a Nintendo Entertainment System into your hands. Reading real cartridges, 8-bit glory can either shine on its 2.4″ display or be outputted to a television—all while fueled by classic AA batteries (sure, lithium ion would be more convenient, but it wouldn’t capture the battery-burning nostalgia of yore). If you refuse to partake in emulation or your heart yearns for a simpler era, the FC Mobile will run about $45 on eBay. It’s a shame the controls aren’t just right. [eBay via technabob]
