Now You’re Playing with Super Power! Nintendo Announces Super NES Classic Edition
Mini 16-Bit System Launches Sept. 29 with 21 Games; Includes Unreleased Star Fox 2

REDMOND, Wash., June 26, 2017 – The Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo’s follow-up console to the legendary Nintendo Entertainment System, launched in 1991 and introduced what many consider some of the greatest video games of all time – classics such as Super Mario World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Mario Kart, Super Metroid and F-ZERO.

On Sept. 29, this beloved console is coming back to stores in the form of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition. The mini system, which contains 21 pre-installed classic games and can easily be plugged into any high-definition TV using the included HDMI cable, will be available at a suggested retail price of $79.99. And for the first time, players who pick up the system can enjoy the intergalactic adventure Star Fox 2, the sequel to the original Star Fox game that was created during the Super NES era but never released … anywhere!

“While many people from around the world consider the Super NES to be one of the greatest video game systems ever made, many of our younger fans never had a chance to play it,” said Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “With the Super NES Classic Edition, new fans will be introduced to some of the best Nintendo games of all time, while longtime fans can relive some of their favorite retro classics with family and friends.”

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition has the same look and feel of the original system – only smaller – and comes pre-loaded with 21 incredible games:
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™
All of these games would be considered classics by anyone’s standards, and some of them in particular – Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy III, EarthBound and Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars – are massive role-playing games that can take dozens of hours to complete. 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!)

Included with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition are one HDMI cable, one USB charging cable with AC adapter and two wired Super NES Classic Controllers, perfect for playing multiplayer games. Having two controllers will make it easy for two players to dive into multiplayer action right away. Some of the games with multiplayer options include Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting, Super Mario Kart, Contra III The Alien Wars and Secret of Mana.

The Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition launches on Sept. 29 at a suggested retail price of $79.99.

[kadotsu]

All the SuperFX games. Finally!

 

[Ourobolus]

Only game it's missing for me is Chrono Trigger but this is a good ass list.

literally my exact thought

 

[Lifeline]

If only they make enough for everyone that wants one this time instead of trying to make a rare product.

 

[The Elite]

Only 21 games? Fuuu...

 

[Rymuth]

Super Mario RPG!!

Oh my god

OH MY GOD

ABDJFJDBEJHCHDHDHFJ

 

[BlueSteel]

Can't wait to not be able to get this.

 

[Jonboy]

This honestly makes me pretty angry. I wasn't really interested in the NES Classic and this one appeals more to me, but something just doesn't feel right knowing how many people wanted the NES Classic and couldn't get one.

 

[TheLastCandle]

WHAT?! SF2?!

 

[JoeBoy101]

Already sold out.

 

[Skittzo0413]

So soon!

So what is their big November product? Just Pokemon US/UM?

 

[Vanillalite]

I don't understand why they couldn't just launch their VC service with those games + themed SNES joycons.

Nintendo WHY YOU DO THIS?!

To a large degree I'm salty this exists since we aren't getting VC.

Shit is gonna be impossible to find, 3rd party mark up gonna be unreal, and I already own a perfect platform called the Switch that I could play this shit on.

 

[Pokemaniac]

Star Fox 2?!

Hopefully that releases on VC as well because, realistically speaking, I'm probably never going to own one of these.

 

[TheDinoman]

per Wario64

Man, they got Final Fantasy III, Secret of Mana and Mario RPG on here, but no Chrono Trigger?

Also, no Donkey Kong Country 2? Really?

 

[ReitStuff]

per Wario64

OMG it does have Yoshi's Island! This is huge! First time the original version (best version) has been re-released!!

 

[tolkir]

I'll eat crow gladly, Eurogamer. I only need PAL SNES design now.

 

[Glowsquid]

Star Fox 2???!!!

 

[Bii]

:O

 

[Sephzilla]

No Chrono Trigger makes me a little sad

 

[CrAzY FiNgErS]

$80.00 US dollars screw that.

 

[Murkas]

10 tabs open.

 

[Gormless Noodle]

I hope I can actually get a chance to buy one.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Star Fox 2.

Yoshi's Island.

 

[VeryGooster]

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Any place to preorder??

 

[Rellik]

.

That's not a SNES.

EU SNES or no buy.

 

[Arkanius]

Day One on this

 

[Taker666]

No Pilotwings?

That's surprising.

 

[friskykillface]

Scalpers ready

Holy shit at that game list

 

[Marty Chinn]

Anyone notice this?

one USB charging cable with AC adapter

 

[lemon__fresh]

Happy they also included Star Fox 1. Star Fox 2 never really seemed like a good game to me.

 

[Maintenance]

And it's gone.

 

[Chauzu]

Solid game list. Going to try and get one for my mother as christmas present. SNES is the only console she ever loved.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

21 games? That's an immediate downgrade from the Classic NES' 30.

I guess the N64 Classic will have 10 games.

 

[Garraboa]

Sending a link to my brother now. He's gonna flip and preorder!

 

[LegendofLex]

The fact that this is missing DKC2 and DKC3 makes it feel incomplete.

Literally the only two things that I think needed to make the list that didn't.

Spoiler

besides Chrono Trigger

 

[KingBroly]

IT HAS BOTH STAR FOX GAMES AND YOSHI'S ISLAND!?

I must pre-order this glorious monstrosity

 

[Ridley327]

per Wario64

Holy shit, Super FX lives!

And not one, not two, but three Square RPGs!

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Star Fox 2 is huge, and Star Fox 1 and SNES Yoshi's Island finally getting rereleased is big news, too.

 

[Rocketz]

$80 what

 

[Raider745]

Earthbound, Super Mario RPG and Final Fantasy III? Cannot wait to not be able to get this.

 

[Psyrgery ES]

EDIT: Ninja'd by Gooster!!!

Damn, gotta preorder this thing fas...

...oh

 

[McMoneyman]

That's a sick collection of games to be honest.
