<p>Three display modes gives players a chance to experience (or re-experience) these classic games in different ways. Nintendo in their official press release stated:</p>
<p>&#8220;[w]ith the CRT filter, a scan-line effect is added to the screen to give everything that oh-so-retro look and feel. 4:3 is a sharp, clean look that adheres to the original aspect ratio used by the NES. And when playing in Pixel Perfect mode, every pixel is shown as a perfect square, providing the most accurate representation of the games as they were originally designed&#8221;.</p>
<p>Those who experienced the days of rushing home from school and starting up their NES to play <em>Mario Bros</em>. will have memories flooding back as they take up the included replica of the original NES controller. This controller will also be usable with the Wii U and Wii Virtual Console games. Unlike the first Nintendo Entertainment System, this time gamers can save their progress at any time through Suspend Points.</p>
