SNES Classic - Before You Buy

The SNES Classic is here! Is Nintendo's newest piece of plastic worth the trouble? Let's break it down!

Waiting for the n64 mini




OH AND gamecube

Just to let you know: “While playing a game, hold START+SELECT+L+R for at least one second to reset the game and return to the title screen.”
No need to press the reset button on the console.

[ZacCoxTV]

My only complaint is I wish Super Mario Allstars was included on the console.

[JLawlietK]

Iphone X $999 or 12 SNES $959.88 make the right choice.

[MrOfficer]

Sucks they discontinued this. A lot of people are still wanting it.

[SCmaro]

Have to get up and hit the reset button to get back to the menu? Son, in my day, do you know what we had to do to change games? We had to get up, turn the console off, turn the tv off, take a shower, get dressed, find our keys, drive to kmart or toys-r-us, hope they had the game we wanted, pay for it, drive back home, take it out of the box, pull the old game out, put the new one in, turn the tv on, turn the power back on to the game, turn the power back off, take the game out, open that little trap-door thingy, blow in it, put the game back in, turn the power back on, and finally play the game.
I think you can handle getting up and flipping a switch.

I wonder if the top plastic is going to turn yellow and the bottom remain grey???

Thanks for this before you buy!! You guys are the best for reviews

[franciscobarron]

I found one by accident the Lady at Walmart could not bring up the price so I got it for $30

[TheYuvamsharma]

More like Before you buy - "SOLD-OUT"

[blindedbliss]

I disagree that the price is high. I think it's low. You legally obtain 21 games, some of the best of it's time alongside a console and TWO controllers for 80$. That's less than you'll spend on Destiny +

[grimmik]

I would've loved if they actually put in cartridge slots on these mini consoles cause that would've been amazing

[skaeity]

Why does 1080p matter for old as fuck games

[Izanagai]

Uhh before you buy, more like its already sold out but heres a review

[PK_SNESS]

1:43 dude, I hold down on the d pad and press select to go back on the menu...

[rickymarin]

BTW Gameranx. You can bypass the reset button by using a Wii U GameCube controller that features the Home button on it. The home button works as the rest button. So no need to stand up. Works on NES and SNES. ( I have both)

[darkwzrd]

Honestly, I think just putting these games on the virtual console for the switch would have been a better idea on nintendo's part. That way we could play the games on the go as well.

[Romer]

I'm finally getting one soon. Very excited. More interested in the multiplayer games. Can't wait for the n64 classic.

[AndrewPena]

Went to 3 Targets, called one, and eventually found one at a Walmart where there were only 2 left. No regrets.

[danielostblom]

I had no trouble getting my hands on one of these. Just placed a pre-order online, waited until it was released and got it on release day. And boy, am I glad I did! This line-up of games is absolutely amazing! It doesn't matter that some games are "missing" (would have loved Super Mario All-Stars on this myself), that it's got less games than the NES classic, or that it's just "rehashing" old stuff. It's pretty damn neat! Love the design, it just looks super cute. I get this nice feeling in my tummy every time I turn it on, just seeing all these great games lined up in front of me gives me the nostalgia tingles. It's just a great, damn fun way to relive my teenage years with this console. So buy it or don't buy it? For me, it's a resounding BUY IT!
