Super Nintendo Classic Edition - SNES Mini thread

[Tanooki]

According to that brickseek link there's a walmart in the county with 6 of them as of the last data push.

More money for you SNES heads to spend.

Beware of SNES heads, they're the natural enemy of Coneheads.

 

Warning! Wild SNES head appears! Get your PokéBall ready!

Just another paint job on a piece of hardware I already have 5 of. Taking a big pass

[Flojomojo]

The orange and white New 2DS that looks like a Dreamcast (at least in a subtle way) is way prettier!

[Trinity]

time for sleep, i'm turning it off now.

^Given my increasing age and diminishing eye-sight, if I were to collect something like the 3DS, the XLarge version would have to be it.

 

I'll probably play it on a larger screen, someday, maybe..

Yeah... I don't get it. To me that's like Honda releasing a CRX themed Pilot.

[Tanooki]

I've never gone in for a paint job so called upgrade on a system. Looks alright but not necessary.

I saw that the other day. While I did buy the NES version of the GBA-SP and then got the Anniversary GBA Micro (Famicom Edition)...This time I'll have to say no. Too many other things I've got my eye on and not nearly enough money anyway ...

[Flojomojo]

I think the New 3DS is ugly enough on its own, without having to disguise itself as an early 1990s piece of plastic. It's amazing what nostalgia does to people!

 

Just imagine an iPhone in translucent Bondi Blue plastic. Or a Microsoft Surface with beige IBM PC trimmings and a Turbo button.

[Zonie]

It's just more of the cashing in on the nostalgia. I think it looks kinda cool.

[NE146]

So I finally got around to adding more games to one of my SNES Classics.. it's pretty cool. I only added a couple dozen or so, games that I thought were missed in there like Chrono Trigger, Actraiser, Tetris Attack, etc.. The thing you get with this that you don't get off the bat in say.. the standard RPI3 or a SD2SNES is the nice menu and bouncy music Anyway.. it was pretty easy to do. I actually highly recommend it.

^Good to see they finally came out with a color screen for the Kindle Oasis.

[Tanooki]

I grabbed another one of these systems for my kid. They're really not hard to come by are they? Not walk into retail and wow easy but nothing horrible either.

[Osgeld]

I hear they have them at our small town gamesnot, ballermart however still does not have a slot for them. Closer to civilization where I work the guy at target and walbarf (probally the same guy the way they pay those people) said they fly out the door

 

plenty of flashback's though!

[Tanooki]

The walmart I grabbed that one at, they didn't know I had them and the guy went in back. I tried to get a 2nd one to hack, but he wouldn't let me have it and only because as he put it, if the employees knew they were there they'd have bought them. By the time I got home and checked (10~min later) the online SKU tracker on brickseek showed a 0 so the dude voided them and made some phone calls I imagine.

[Andromeda Stardust]

I don't think this has been mentioned yet here:

http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/10/npd_says_snes_mini_was_the_highest_selling_console_in_september

 

All the more surprising that it outsold all of the big 3 competition considering it launched three days before the end of the month!

[Tanooki]

Well if they sold that first day through they maybe knocked out a couple million units in 72 hours~ so the other guys had no chance. Nintendo hype machine, the SNES of all things, and the fear of scumbag scalpers -- trifecta for fast hyper sales.

[keepdreamin]

So does the emulator core this thing uses support all the enhancement chips? So I can toss in any game?

Not exactly. Compatibility list here: Compatibility List

 

I used this guide at neogaf http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1444556

[Tanooki]

Yup it's highly compatible, but not 100% and definitely sketchy when it comes to one off chips and stuff Japan only saw.

 

That spreadsheet is a bit misleading as I skim it looking at games with problems and some are BS titles and other hacked ROMs which both shouldn't be included or at least in a separate section from the legitimately released titles which is a shame. Also how accurate it is when it's claiming secret of mana (us) doesn't work right, yet it's on of the included games with the console. Is the list open for fools to edit at their own whims?
