SNES Classic Release Date & Full Games List Revealed

Nintendo started the first whispers about the SNES Classic Mini a while ago. Now, the follow-up of the somewhat notorious NES Classic Mini finally got a release date. The North American and European version will come out on September 29th, while the Japanese version will come out on October 5th. The price tag is $79.99, meaning it will have a smaller library than the NES Classic Mini for more money. However, the SNES Classic Mini will have two controllers, unlike the NES Classic, which came with only one.

Speaking of the NES Classic Mini, Nintendo has promised that they will up the production of the SNES Classic to avoid the rage-inducing shortages that plagued the NES Mini.
