My girlfriend really wanted a SNES Classic after they were first revealed but after seeing how difficult it was to get a hold of a NES Classic, and now with the hassle it is it get a SNES Classic, I decided to instead look into building a Retro Pi
For anyone who doesn't know what that is, a Retro Pi is a cheap Raspberry Pi PC that is set up to run retro games, check this thread out for more information
This is mine and I couldn't be happier with it
Edit: The controller works wirelessly via Bluetooth, it's just plugged in here to charge
It cost me about £90 in total when you include the cost of the controller, and not only plays SNES games, but pretty much everything from NES to PS1
It's a Virtual Console in a box the size of a cigarette packet
So GAF, has anyone else gone down this route when faced with the prospect of trying to find a SNES Classic?
