Rumors of a follow-up to the successful-yet-underproduced NES Classic Edition spread across the internet this past April. Yesterday, Nintendo confirmed them to be true with the grand reveal of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition.
Akin to its predecessor, the package will come pre-installed with some of the defining games of its era, with 21 in total. Nintendo’s titles make up the majority of the list, although Square Enix, Capcom and Konami contributed some of their work as well. These are the games that will be included:
While concentrating the Super Nintendo’s catalog into 21 games is a daunting task, I believe it’s a strong list. Of course, the most eye-catching choice is Star Fox 2, a title that heretofore was never officially released. It will need to be unlocked before you can play it, although you only need to clear the first level in the original to do so. If you’re curious, Japan’s roster of games will be slightly different.
The following components will also come bundled in the package:
You can play with super power on September 29, and Nintendo’s second plug-and-play will retail for $79.99. Nintendo assured us that more units of this throwback will be produced than last year’s NES miniature. However, their wording implies production of the Super NES Classic Edition will cease by the end of this year.
