interested in recommended Nintendo gaming consoles that will play Donkey Kong and Mario
Hello and Good Morning Everyone,
With the huge varieties of Nintendo gaming consoles, making the right choice can be confusing at best. That said, I am interested in some recommendations for choosing the right one for playing such 80's classics like Donkey Kong, Mario originals, etc. If possible, I would like for recommended Nintendo gaming consoles to have some classic 80's games, especially Donkey Kong and Mario originals, to either be integrated or come with it. While I do have a PlayStation 4 gaming console, it is my understanding that I will not be able to play Donkey Kong or Mario on it. At any rate, if someone could get back with me regarding this question, it will greatly be appreciated.
Thank you
George

Yeah, That's the Raspberry Pi option I suggested. He doesn't have to build all that (Of course it will be more fun) but normal monitor or 7" LCD would do.
Right, but when you make a suggestion, it's good to give the asker something to go on. A direction is and personal experience is a good thing to provide.
For example, there are tons of videos on making a Barcade on YouTube...just query on "barcade raspberry Pi".

Right, but in cases like that I prefer to give multiple suggestions at first, and wait to see what interests him most before giving more details.

Hi Everyone,
Thank you for your in-depth feedback. To be perfectly honest, I am more interested in a gaming console already built and ready to go which has games like Donkey Kong, Mario originals, Centipede, Asteroids, etc. integrated into it or available as a third party item. Of course, I already have a PS4 console, but, it is not compatible with said games.

Hello Everyone,
I did notice that eBay has several Nintendo consoles with games. At a later time when I am not so busy, I will be following up this option. Basically, I am leaning toward a Nintendo gaming console already built and fully functional that will play the early Nintendo game Donkey Kong.

Not only will you have 1000's of games, you will have the satisfaction of having built it yourself.
I have the hardware to build one...just too hot right now..but I have the guts working and it's amazing.
