Judging from how "tricky" n64 emulation is, I doubt you would be able to add too many games too it. Many games still won't "emulate" on the wii, and I think that is a fair benchmark to compare what a mini n64 would be capable of. I wouldn't at all be surprised if they had some sort of connect service for online co-op and possibly a store type of thing.

my guess in nintendo did some feasibility studies internally and found they couldn't get enough games to emulate super bug free and super high performance that they'd be proud of it

There might be more problems than just that. Do you build rumble into the controller, or let it be BYOR(umble)P(ak)? Do you start making rumble paks again? What about the other peripherals? Emulate controller pak or let people use their old ones?

I don't know how I did it, but I bought a brand new one from some guy selling them over a year ago. He had 10 of them for sale, and me being the autist that I am took it apart to verify. It has all the proper markings on the shell and the PCB. I should have taken a picture. I paid $33 shipped, and it was well worth it. I wish they would sell the SNES ones new. There are Generic ones also, but they are not as good. I have a "generic" pcb from a knock off that I put into a a real SNES shell, and it died...but it fit perfectly into the oem shell from an old SNES. it felt just the same also. In a few weeks I have a few items I want, and I may add another SNES wii controller to the list.

If I remember right, Nintendo is in an OK position financially right now.
So for them, making another retro console, especially a more difficult one to emulate, isn't worth pursuing right now.

So I'm betting that they're saving it for backup during harder times, or they're waiting for it to become cheap enough to profit greatly from it.

If the Playstation Classic didn't bomb like it did, they might've countered with the N64 had it become a success like Nintendo's versions.

Would this not be incredibly difficult to do based on how difficult it was just to even program for the N64?

You would have to add MK4 which is not family friendly but N64 had the best port of it.

That is 1. not actually true, and 2. does not address my issue with your B tier fighting game. Street fighter always looked better, and peaked with 3rd Strike. Your edgy, rotoscoped, aliased nineties pixels were ugly then and they're ugly now. I happen to like how new MK looks way better than new SF.

Not him but by the time Street Fighter 3 arrived at arcades the franchise lost a ton of its former popularity. Same can be said about Mortal Kombat after 4 but still, MK was just as big if not even bigger for gaming fans in general. Everyone seemed to love it and spread around rumors related to the earlier arcade games.

It having better gameplay doesn't always mean it was more popular sales wise and in regards of discussions. It's been like this decades ago and honestly it still is to this day.

This. Playstation classic only happened because somebody else had already done 90% of the legwork for Sony for free. N64 emulation is still mired in the "you need some kind of NASA supercomputer for it to work right and it still might not for no reason" stage of development and nobody realistically expects it'll ever move past that.

3rd strike was garbage, actually anything street fighter after st2 is unpopular as fuck.
this franchise died after sf2turbo and was only revived in 2000 fucking 8 with sf4, just to die again with SFV.

Dude this place is contrarian central because of bored trolls and anons who take bait so easily you'd question their past life choices. If anything there are more posters here trying to show off how 'unique' they are by saying how great underrated games are and overrated more popular ones instead of the other way around, which in turn makes the situation even more ironic because people here actually seem to proclaim liking popular games you really love instead of acting like an internet stud.
