Nintendo will demo the NES Classic live on Twitch later this week

Sadly not the Direct you were looking for.

Nintendo Europe has announced that it will be holding a live demonstration of the Mini Classics: Nintendo Entertainment System later this week.

The stream will be an hour long and joining Nintendo will be the editor of Retro Gamer magazine. They’ll be showing off the hardware but also playing through some of the games, in HD and at 60hz. They also won’t have that terrible filter Virtual Console games have either.

They’ll also be giving a unit away, like most things Nintendo this is region locked to residents in Europe.

It will be held, now bear with me because Australia has five time zones now. It’s being held on both Thursday and Friday. Here are the times you need;

Perth – 11pm Thursday, 6 October 2016
Adelaide – 1:30am Friday, 7 October 2016
Darwin – 12:30am Friday, 7 October 2016
Brisbane – 1am Friday, 7 October 2016
Melbourne and Sydney – 2am Friday, 7 October 2016
