Nintendo has done a fair job at catering to us longtime, retro-loving fans in recent years, with the NES and SNES Classic systems satisfyingly scratching that nostalgic itch.

Nothing is quite as nostalgic for me as sitting down with my friends after school for a rousing match of Mario Kart 64. The four-player split-screen action was mindblowing to us and the graphics at the time were some of the sharpest, and prettiest, we’d ever seen. Fast forward 25…
