If I wasn’t beating levels and eating burgers as Alex Kidd, then I was busting blocks with my head as Mario.

ThinkGeek.com has decided to bring the NES to the world of handheld gaming, and created the Retro Mini which will play all of your favourite NES cartridges.

The system runs on four AA batteries (just like the original Game Boy), and the website claims that the console has a battery life of over 8 hours.

You’ll be the envy of all your friends with the Retro Mini, and given that this handheld system retails for the mere price of $49.99; this is definitely a must have system for all those that love their retro gaming.

If you’re wanting to invest in the Retro Mini then you’ll have to fish out your old NES cartridges to play it, if you can’t find your old NES games though then I’m sure you’ll be able to pick up a few bargain carts from eBay.

Here is the Retro Mini Handheld NES System which is available now from ThinkGeek.com:
