You'll be able to hack this but you'll need to perform a series of extremely precise glitches in Super Mario World and have a multitap.

just realized this also could have used Lost Vikings 2 and TMNT Turtles in Time but lol at ever getting Blizzard or the rights to TMNT on board. I'm surprised Konami let Castlevania 4 on this but it'd be a tragedy if it didn't have that or Contra.

I just realized that the mere existence of a SNES Classic coming out in loving September does not bode well at all for Switch VC, Nintendo what the HECK are you doing? Can't you just keep price gouging a la carte Switch accessories and call it a day?

The mere existence of it is a curious thing, considering the NES Mini was mostly surplus Wii hardware wasn't it?

Both of these games are on Wii VC, Wii U VC, and on the New 3DS VC, so the relationship is dating back to ~2007.

if anything I'd say Star Fox 2 being on this thing and not as a VC release makes the virtual console look dead in the water. Why bother handing out games for 7 or 6 bux apiece when you can pump out these bad boys for 80 bucks?

If it turns out like the NES Mini, you'll probably be able to hack whatever missing games you want onto there, too. Unless they go ahead and only put on the bare minimum for storage or something.

Do they make 64mb flash memory anymore?

From the way things were announced just before E3, Switch VC (or whatever they're calling this Netflix-style stuff) will be NES-only at first, with SNES games probably getting added later on.

Jesus loving Christ. WHY?

I'd consider buying the game bundle on the Switch but loving come on why do you do this to us? Sell the games as a bundle on the Switch you fuckers.

That said, the list of games for this thing is pretty much perfect. Should be MMX3 instead of MMX, and lacks Chrono Trigger, but it's solid otherwise.

Super Mario Bros 3

Here's the nine games they could realistically (so licensed stuff like Turtles in Time is out) add to make it on par with the NES Classic's 30.

- Chrono Trigger
- Donkey Kong Country 2
- Tetris Attack
- Super Mario All-Stars
- ActRaiser
- Super Bomberman
- Gradius III
- Kirby's Dreamland 3
- Final Fight 3/Final Fantasy IV/Breath of Fire (pick your poison here)

What's on the SNES Classic is actually a pretty darned good list, though.

Well if it's anything like NES Mini they'll go "PHEW that was a job well done let's never sell this product again" after 5 months and VC poo poo they just downloaded off emuparadise can be sold forever.

It was never going to have every game anybody wanted considering the number of good titles on the SNES and if the scarcity of the NES mini translates over it means a lot of people aren't getting one without paying the scalper tax.

It's cool but I understand the frustration.

The NES Classic has roughly 300MB available. If you're just loading it up with NES games, it's fine. But when you add in the artwork, other emulators, other systems... It adds up pretty quick.

Because charging even $5 per game on the VC is going to be a significantly better profit margin?

The Switch VC is being delayed because they're toying with the idea of attaching a Netflix style subscription system to their online services, not because they wanted to release a cute piece of plastic instead.

only 21 games, they could have easily have padded it up to 30 like the nes one.

It'll be hacked within 24 hours to allow you to include the entire SNES library, relax.
Hopefully, they'll also reverse engineer the Super FX emulation.

True. Just hack in "Panel de Pon" to the title screen.

What JPN exclusives would show up on the Super Famicom Classic? I'd say Seiken Densetsu 3 but the Switch release just happened. Fire Emblem, probably.
