It&#x27;s pretty impressive to look at and consider the differences in the complexity of the circuit boards in successive generations.<p>It would be very interesting if someone had a chart of BOM costs for the various controllers and systems, to see if the budget for controllers has changed since the NES&#x2F;Famicon days.<p>Also of course, if Nintendo really wanted to make a killing, putting the original NES in a controller and selling that with an HDMI port on the end would be sweet.  I&#x27;d pay $50 for a low-hassle, no-legal-ambiguities way to play NES games with my kid.
