The NES Classic Edition in 3 Display Modes

Great news for all retro gamers, as you are going to get a choice of three display modes when Nintendo finally unpack the NES compact console. The three display modes are - Pixel Perfect, where each pixel is rendered as a perfect square (and therefore gives you a perfect square on your big screen). As Nintendo points out, this lets you "see the games exactly as designed" even on modern hardware. Then there's a 4:3 mode for "the original NES game look", which is going to stretch your games ever so slightly. This matches the same aspect ratio that most original NES gamers, playing on a cathode ray tube (CRT) television, will be familiar with. There's also an intriguing "CRT filter" mode for that authentic look, designed to look as much like an old television set as possible - it even comes with fake scan lines and is the one to use if you really want to feel like you're in an episode of Netflix favourite 'Stranger Things'!
