If you were hoping that Nintendo would follow its NES Classic and SNES Classic with a miniaturized version of its Nintendo 64, Reggie Fils-Aimé, president of Nintendo of America, has some bad news.

In an interview with Kotaku, Fils-Aimé said that a Nintendo 64 Classic is “not in our planning horizon.” Normally, a response like that could be interpreted as a soft deflection that Nintendo has not announced such a product and has no plans to reveal one during an interview ostensibly held to promote the company’s holiday lineup. Nintendo could, of course, still release an N64 Classic at a time beyond its “planning horizon,” but Fils-Aimé explained why the company may not trot out a third mini-version of one of its consoles.
