While the new NES will look almost exactly like the old version, it's so small that it will fit in your hand. The original launched in the US in 1985, which is largely credited for the rise of console gaming.

The new NES will come with 30 games built into the system, including classics like Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Pac MAN and TECMO Bowl.

NES will have a few upgrades since gamers last remembered it, including an HDMI cable to plug into high-definition TV and a way to suspend and save play without a password.

Nintendo's stock is reacting positively, up nearly 14 percent to $30.18 in Thursday's session.
