(personally, I mean, I literally have a SNES in my room, and most of these games I’d want to play I already have either on that and/or virtual console stuff so, you know. it’s not for me)
The inclusion of Star Fox 2 pretty much guarantees that the collector’s market will be out for blood so that they can buy up as many as possible to keep pristine in their boxes and never used.
One of my top three games (Super Metroid) and my favorite RPGS( Mario, Mana And Earthbound) all in one with so much more amazing stuff. I want it all. When is the pre-order.
A little bummed that Chrono Trigger, Mortal Kombat, NBA Jam, and Shaq Fu (listed in order of seriousness) didn’t make it onto the system, but I get it, and the current list is stellar.
No Chrono Trigger and the wrong DKC is a huge shame. Also, the overall limit of 21 games instead of the NES classic’s 30 is awful for the console with, IMO, the best selection of games ever. You can see which games were put in just to have multiplayer stuff, too.
Star Fox 2 addition is cool, but when you consider that 2 of these 21 games are Star Fox games, which I don’t think has aged well, seems like they could have dropped the first one. No one would have complained about that.
It was super weird to open my phone today and watch the tide of opinion and anticipation for this rise up and crater. This is a cool and interesting set of games (particularly with some games that were not part of Europe’s history with Nintendo); I’m particularly intrigued to see what form Star Fox 2 ends up taking, since it was (as far as I know) an unfinished game.
