Just got confirmation that I will receive a launch unit. If I want it at fucking $200...
If I could be sure that there would be more EU shipments so I could get one from a country where it's more sanely priced I would cancel my Swedish pre-order in an instant.

Its nice that they recognized the issue of using a 4-button pad to play nes games with the default configs, but it is still suboptimal.
If I'm doing this on PC or somewhere else where I can control the mappings, SNES Y should be NES B, and SNES B should be NES A.

I liked the NES Classic case made by the other manufacture, which I can't remember their name. This one looks really bulky and cheap.

It's identical to the original in size, feel, quality, everything. Just like the NES Classic controller was. This is a big part why these systems are such a good buy. 100% authentic controllers
with shorter cables

It's the same. From the previous it looks almost identical in terms of build quality. If the NES Classic controllers are any indication the controllers are going to be top notch.

RDS Industries. Their NES case was beautiful. Haven't seen any word as to whether they're making an SNES case but if they do, that's the one I'd consider getting. The PDP case is pretty unsightly IMO.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
And bought.
Great news, thanks! Now, I'm REALLY looking forward to all my Super Metroid runs.

Anybody receive any update on their US Amazon orders?

I'm surprised they didn't make a SNES Classic case. I wanted this one to be consistent with my NES Classic and Switch cases with the red logos and trim.
Does this work with PC, Switch or other consoles?
Might get this instead of the 8bitdo as a wireless SNES/2D gaming alternative.

I wonder if this controller will work on the switch. I am not sure if I will get the snes classic, so I don't want to buy it for nothing. Hmm.

Daaaaaaaamn, why can't we have things like this in my country?!
I... don't like the handle though.

Cant you use a button combination to get to the home menu?
There is? Where'd you hear that?

I had heard people talking about this with their NES Classic, so I thought it would be the same here.

A world where everyone is talking about the SNES and SNES games is definitely a world that I want to be in

Isn't the Hori controller a replica of an old Super Famicom controller they made or something?

Yeah it's a revival of the old Hori Fighting Commander (hence the 6 face button layout)

Japan gets Panel de Pon (Tetris Attack), which is better than all those games combined.

Does your TV have a USB port? If so, plug it into that.
If not, you just need one of those standard phone ones.

After watching the Castlevania Netflix series I'm super pumped for Castlevania IV. I never played it.

The EU version should come without Earthbound and Mario RPG and 50hz for true representation
Then we'll talk
Indeed. The original EU model was significantly inferior due to actual games not releasing for it. A better colour scheme doesn't make up for that.
Still doesn't even remotely balance it.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Really looking forward to this. I have a pre-order with both Target (US version) and Amazon UK (PAL version) as well as the Hori pad.
Aside from Assassin's Creed Origins and a few other smaller titles, this is like the majority of my console gaming plans for the rest of the year - doubly so once it's hackable.

Hyped as fuck for this all of a sudden
So many great games I never played on my SNES and so many I'm eager to revisit...

Surprised there isn't a single shooting game on there. Super Aleste / Space Megaforce, R-Type 3, or Axelay would have been solid choices. I guess Nintendo thinks Star Fox fulfills that criteria?
Hmm, that's a good point. No traditional shmups represented. Axelay would have been a really good one to showcase.

No preorder for me... Have plans to head to the nearest target about 3 hours before opening. Need to make sure my portable battery pack is charged, it's going to be a long wait.
I only managed to snag a single NES classic last year and I gave it to my heavily autistic brother... and he never even played it. He just kept using the original. Love my brother, but I won't make that mistake again. This one will be mine.
Rewatching the trailer for this thing, the amount of huge classics it has is amazing. Just missing All Stars, Chrono Trigger, and maybe NBA Jam... But even short those, what's on display is likely a couple hundred hours of single player, and even more multiplayer goodness.

"That works both ways"?
Is that like in the US politics discussion, people saying "Both sides"?
The games that were on the US SNES but not on the PAL SNES are cumulatively far superior to those released on the PAL SNES but not the US SNES.
Heck, how many of each of those are on these systems? The PAL SNES Classic is getting games that were released on the original US SNES... Meanwhile, for those original PAL SNES games... umm... anything here?...
P.S. The list in that topic contains many inaccuracies...
Inventory is showing as 0 for every store when I search my area (zip 10603). Does this mean the stock hasn't arrived in my area yet? Or is it not working for anyone else?

I assume my ps4 has to be turned on to give power or is restmode enough? Same question for the switch dock.
It'd be easier than an adapter positionwise.
