Messiah Debuts Generation NEX Console
Los Angeles, CA, USA –May 23, 2005 –Messiah Entertainment Inc. unveils a new 8-bit console for classic gaming. At only 1.5 inches tall, Generation NEX is Messiah’s slim and sexy micro version of the beloved Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Generation NEX revives the cherished classics of the past, redefining retro gaming as we know it.
Messiah brings next generation technology to classic gaming. Generation NEX is the first console featuring built-in 2.4 GHz wireless controller support. In addition to wireless gaming, the system has two controller ports for use with all your favorite original NES accessories including the four-player adapter and Zapper light gun.

Classic gaming is where it all began and with Generation NEX the classics will live on.” Strahle continued, “All gamers will love playing their favorite retro games on the Generation NEX and enjoy them with a new passion.”

Well, it looks more promising than the Phantom.
Rumble support? Heh.
My current NES works great but this one is still pretty nice looking. So much for the top-loader secondary market.

$60 is a bit much, but if it's built well, it might be $60 well spent.

Do you prefer dogs or cats?
A bit much? Nah.
I still say that if Nintendo just rereleased the NES model 2 and a bunch of games they'd make a killing.

Maybe it's programmed to rumble whenever a more bass-y sound plays.I was thinking the same thing.
