Nintendo Announces SNES Classic, Which Comes With 21 Stellar Games [UPDATE]
Forget the NES Classic—this is the vintage system we’ve been waiting for. Nintendo today announced the Super Nintendo Classic, which will be out on September 29 for $80 and come with 21 games including the previously unreleased Star Fox 2.
The lineup, which is excellent, also includes Earthbound, Final Fantasy III, Link to the Past, and Secret of Mana. And Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country and holy crap this thing is going to be impossible to get at a store without gouging someone’s eyes out, isn’t it?
Unlike the NES Classic, the SNES Classic’s lineup is full of genuine masterpieces that have all aged well. There isn’t a single bad game on this thing (assuming Star Fox 2 is as solid as the first one). Here’s the full list:
Contra III: The Alien Wars
Donkey Kong Country
EarthBound
Final Fantasy III
F-ZERO
Kirby Super Star
Kirby’s Dream Course
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mega Man X
Secret of Mana
Star Fox
Star Fox 2
Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting
Super Castlevania IV
Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Super Punch-Out!!
Yoshi’s Island
Oddly, Nintendo says you’ll have to beat the first level of Star Fox to unlock Star Fox 2. From the press release: “Even for super fans who have played all of these games multiple times, the inclusion of the never-before-released Star Fox 2 game will offer them something entirely new to enjoy – if they can unlock it by proving their skills in the original Star Fox game. (Well, they only have to complete the first level – we didn’t want to make it too hard!)”
The system also comes with an HDMI cable, a charging cable, and two SNES controllers so you can beat up your friends in Street Fighter. We’ve reached out to Nintendo to ask if the company plans to produce more of these things than the last time around.
UPDATE (1:53pm): And here’s Nintendo, confirming that the company does plan to ship more SNES Classics, but only this year.
We aren’t providing specific numbers, but we will produce significantly more units of Super NES Classic Edition than we did of NES Classic Edition.
Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition is currently planned to ship from Sept. 29 until the end of calendar year 2017. At this time, we have nothing to announce regarding any possible shipments beyond this year.
Our long-term efforts are focused on delivering great games for the Nintendo Switch system and continuing to build momentum for that platform, as well as serving the more than 63 million owners of Nintendo 3DS family systems. We are offering Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition in special recognition of the fans who show tremendous interest our classic content

The games are much better than the NES Classic
Hopefully the controller cables won't be a foot long like the NES Classic.

99% would flip it if I could even get my hands on one.
Only reason to buy this is SF2. But I'd rather use the profits on a stack of quarters so I could blow it at the arcades.  | |

Not to mention Star Fox 2, a game that was never released.

One issue with the included games is, any collector around 30 years old (or who grew up with NES/SNES) is that I have most those games. But I guess the same thing could have been said about the NES Classic, it's a collector piece to get newer generations playing it

Happy earthbound was included.
Would have been nice to see illusions of Gaia but that's about all I can think of
Hopefully they make enough so it's not some stupid bullshit like the NES mini. Also limit 1 per person for sales ffs..

Doom was great. But I'm playing CS:GO. So is everyone else on this planet who doesn't have a time machine.

Much like the USDM vs JDM NES mini, I'd once again have to say that I'd far prefer the aesthetics of the JDM Super Famicom over the SNES:   |

I had fond memories of starfox and did 100% on all three levels of difficulty. Never did get to the slot machine, though.
But the game play was quite repetitive so I don't think I'd care too much for Starfox 2. Chrono Trigger should have been included but if they wanted a truly gorgeous game that was never released in north america they should have got Square to do Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2).
Super metroid was THE speed run game and still is. I spent so many hours on possibly a thousand or so playthroughs on my SNES. 14% runs, 100% runs, suitless run, no boss runs, plasma/spazer glitch reset runs with highest % run.
Super Metroid is the greatest display of game design of all time, and the fact that designers meant for the game to be sequence broken was just genius at the time. The morphing ball is the very first item you get and is the precursor to breaking sequence in the game using mock ball. That game still brings back goosebumps especially with the item-get jingle.
I'm gonna get this just for super metroid

seriously this is great and all but when the old "red and white" nintendo came out with 500 games, I bought it but it was meh.
Yes, Duck hunt, Mappy, Tetris, Kung Fu, Cobra, Wrestling etc were all super nostalgic but after an hr in, it just feel too single dimensional. Esp the older games like duck hunt, it's just repeat of level of exactly the same thing.
The fad left me meh and I turned it off (maybe not Tetris or Cobra) but you get what I'm saying.

Yeah these old games are cool and all, but I'd be way more stoked for a true sequel to games like Earthbound and Super Mario RPG.
I don't think any one makes more money than Nintendo by getting people to buy shit they already bought over and over again.
