I'm pretty sure it want have any sound or fps problems, Nintendo pay attention on things like those espacialy for VC games, you already have VC games and they are working great.

Who care if people bored after 30 games, this is $60 console not $300, and for that price has great value, basicly full price of one AAA game is $60. Just number of collectors, nostalgia/retro fans and Nintendo fans is huge, but definitely some casuals will bought this also because it's cool and cheap, great for holiday present.

How large it is!? Its smaller than NES cartridge, its have size of 4-inch mobile phone with only bigger height, its basically size of NES controller like you can see on pictures. It look like is size of package of cigarettes, you cant relly say that is large.

Have on mind that this is women hand

It seems large to me because the NES is such an old product. Using the latest technology you could  produce a console of xbox 360 performance level smaller than that if you removed the disc drive and hard drive and just relied on flash memory. I personally would have prefered it smaller, about a third of the size. I think this would have been even more collectable and desirable.  To be honest they probably could have put all the electronics in the NES controller and done a wireless connection to a hdmi dongle that plugs into the tv.

Sure they could, but a big part of it is that it actually is a NES even though in a new format. It's a part of the thing, the design. Without it it would probably not even sell half as much. People in their 40's or whatever going in the store seeing a NES and they go "wow! look at that" and 3 seconds later it is in their bin after they see what games are included.

It's a perfect design. Everything doesnt have to be micro. This is going to be a hit.
