Nintendo has announced that the Super Nintendo Classic Edition / Mini will be released in America and Europe on September 29th [for US$80]. The system is US$20 more, but it does come with a second controller, shouldn’t have to worry about finding those at least.
If I was ever to buy one of these nostalgic-cash-grabs that Nintendo churns out in “limited” quantities to drum up hype, this would be the one I’d get. That said, as you can probably tell by my opening sentence that’s extremely unlikely. Although I have just bought a Switch so I’m basically a Nintendo fanboy now right?
No word on definitive Australian pricing as yet, nor if it will even be available here on the same day. The new Nintendo SNES mini will be available in Australia the day after, September 30th, for $119.95.
