Classic NES games on Revolution to be preloaded and FREE!


Check out the article from Joystiq regarding pricing for classic NES games on the new Nintendo Revolution. It looks like the prices for those games will be...FREE! Supposedly the games are already preloaded...no need to download them. Read the entire story below, compliments of Joystiq:

Wow. Good move. When we spoke with Nintendo about the price of their classic emulated games on the Revolution,they were coy and left the pricing up to our imaginations. I assumed they'd follow the GBA model 10-12 bucks for a classic would be fair. But George Harrison of Nintendo just sprung a surprise. Classic Nintendo titles will be free. Buy the console, take it home, plug it in and start playing your old faves. They'll have to be careful not to offer too much out of the gate. After all, you want people to spend money on the software. But as far as exciting services to offer with their new hardware, it's hard to come up with a better idea.

    I just may very well buy this system to play the classics all over again! Great move by the big "N".

    PS3 is estimated to be close to $500, and Xbox360 around $350...if the Revolution comes in at around $200, it'll fly off shelves. Wireless controllers and classic NES games right out of the box...Sweet!!!
