Moments in Time: Nintendo is releasing a miniature NES with 30 built-in games

-
Nintendo is bringing back the NES — only a little smaller.
Today the company announced what it's calling the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition. It looks just like a NES, only a lot tinier, and it comes with 30 games built in. You can connect it to your TV via a HDMI cable, and it also includes a controller designed to work just like the iconic rectangular NES gamepad. (The new controller will also connect to a Wii Remote, so that you can use it to play Virtual Console games on a Wii or Wii U.)
In addition to HDMI support and a lack of cartridges, the new mini-console also features one useful modern convenience: multiple suspend points, so that you won't have to fumble around with passwords when you start playing a game again. The NES Classic Edition will be available on November 11th for $59.99.
Here's the complete list of games:
  • Balloon Fight
  • Bubble Bobble
  • Castlevania
  • Castlevania II: Simon's Quest
  • Donkey Kong
  • Donkey Kong Jr.
  • Double Dragon II: The Revenge
  • Dr. Mario

Tottenham Hotspur Shirt Sponsor History

Tottenham were one of the first teams to jump upon the ‘Shirt Sponsor’ bandwagon, after going without one for just over a century. Holsten-Brauerei AG (Holsten Brewery plc.), became the first commercial company to have their logo printed on the fabled white shirts of the Spurs. Their name adorned the home, away and alternate shirts of Tottenham for 12 years, between 1983 and 1995. The first game in which the Holsten logo featured on the  Spurs shirt  was on a televised Friday night game, the small logo was placed directly under the Spurs badge (which appeared in the top centre of the shirt), and the Le Coq Sportif logo’s were located on the arms of the top. The shirt became a great commercial success, despite some early misgivings about the usage of a sponsor. Holsten quickly became associated with Tottenham and the company stuck with Tottenham through thick and thin. Despite the team losing influence in the new premiership-era and despite the 1987 FA Cup balls-up (in whi...
