I got heavy into looking at fan translations of games that were never released in the US. Some people then take these fan translations and make custom carts that play in a NES or SNES, just like they would had they come out here. I view these translators as time judges who right the wrongs of the past. That way nerds like me can play Sweet Home or the other great games that we should have got.

So I've asked for game reproductions of NES and SNES games for Christmas. I imagine it will feel nostalgic to my childhood when I open up a gift under the tree and see a NES or SNES game.

Other than that, I've been playing tons of Donkey Kong Country Returns. It's like the original series if it had way more animation, way better graphics and even more character. Retro Studios did a great job, I hope they have a follow up in the works.
