25 years ago, I was a sophomore in high school, and used the money that I'd gotten for my birthday at the end of September to by my Super Nintendo. I had been looking forward to it for years, thanks to Nintendo Power hype, and it delivered on a lot of those promises. It was my primary gaming system for five years, until I switched to the Playstation (One) in 1997 for FF7 and others.
Now, this September 29th, Nintendo will be releasing the SNES classic, filled with a lot of the games that I loved playing back in those days when I was in HS and college.
Contra III: The Alien Wars
Donkey Kong Country
EarthBound
Final Fantasy III
F-ZERO
Kirby Super Star
Kirby’s Dream Course
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mega Man X
Secret of Mana
Star Fox
Star Fox 2
Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting
Super Castlevania IV
Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Super Punch-Out!!
Back in the day, I played the living heck of of FF3, FZero, A Link to the Past, Secret of Mana, Street Fighter 2, Mario Kart, Mario World and Punch Out. I never seriously considered the NES Classic, but I am really thinking about this one.
Not So Fastforum_veteranI definitely want one, but I wish it had a few more games like Chrono Trigger, DKC2, and Pilotwings

Me too. Certainly on Chrono Trigger. I cant imagine that storage space is an issue. Its likely a licensing thing.
Desidesforum_veteranThe game selection is OK but leaves out a lot of classic third party games that made the SNES truly great.
I recommend just using the Virtual Console/eShop, or buying the versions available on the digital store of whatever console you currently own, rather than buying the SNES Mini. Besides, you know people will bulk order the things and gouge resale pricing.
