Mario All-Stars would have been an A+ addition.

Chrono Trigger is the most glaring omission. That game deserves every last bit of praise it gets. If you haven't played it, you're missing out on something amazing. I also don't understand why the other two games in the Donkey Kong Country trilogy were excluded. They were better than their predecessor in nearly every way, ranking among some of the best 2D platformers ever made.

This & the NES Classic are both amazing, I own both.

It's frustrating to hear that people line up for these just to resell them. I've been playing games all my life and love them, so I think it's sad that people aren't hype to experience all these great games or buy them for their kids so they can experience them.

My local Best Buy literally had about 100 in stock and was selling only one to each person. Nobody even had to run to the register or anything once the doors opened. It was very refreshing, all thanks to the way Best Buy handled it.

Smart tip:
If your TV has an USB connector, this will power your SNES mini. No need to buy an AC plug!

[Z-Man]

This is how people defeat scalpers.

*Don't buy from them.*

[Ortonsault]

Leaving out Chrono Trigger is criminal

[jabroni]

I would have like to see Mortal Kombat 2, NBA Jams TE and Madden 96. Along with Turtles in Time.

I had the same exact experience in line. Everyone talking about how they are going to scalp these amazing things. I was trying to talk about the games with people in line, but it was obvious they were bullshitting their way through the conversation and were just trying to be nice. The SNES classic is a god send, these games are timeless. It was totally worth waiting 5 hours in line.

I hate how difficult it is to get one of these damn things. Really takes the fun out of it.

[AndyStubblefield]

I had the same experience when I was in line as well; everyone talking about how they were going to resell them rather than play them. Very frustrating.

[ChrisGower]

"I'm standing outside target at 6 in the morning" just answered my pending question 'why does Ryan look like he wants to murder someone?'

[ScottWozniak]

The reason Turtles In Time isn't included is because KONAMI doesn't own the TMNT license anymore which makes it impossible for Nintendo to license that game from them. And I still think it's a crime that Zombies Ate My Neighbors wasn't included on the SNES Classic Edition!

[techx]

*looks at Mike and Ryan* "Cocaine is a hellava drug"

[ZeroEscape]

You two looks like you haven't showered or slept for the past 5 days just to get one of this thing lol

[Catskywatcher]

2:20 I'm here on pure nostalgia fuel. The message has not been lost completely. And Super Metroid is one of the best games ever.

[TobiAnimados]

It would be cool if SEGA could release an official little classic console like this one. I love the SNES, mine is still working, and I just bought the SNES classic, but I never played SEGA so much so it would be nice to have a mini official version.
Even it would be very funny if Nintendo could help them to do this

[bayouboyentertainment]

The fact they don't rerelease this every holiday season is crazy imo.

[erichall]

I was able to mod mine and I now have pretty much all of the snes library in this thing I love it
