That being said, however, it appears that Nintendo has learned its lesson with the SNES Classic, as the company revealed that it will be changing the way the device’s launch and production will be handled after seeing the results of the NES Classic’s release and subsequent discontinuation. In a statement provided to Kotaku earlier today after the SNES Classic was announced, Nintendo had this to say:
Those extra units will almost certainly be necessary for Nintendo, too, as the company revealed the games lineup for the SNES Classic alongside its announcement and it looks to be a must-have collection for fans of the retro console. The lineup includes almost every classic SNES game imaginable, an even includes a special release of Star Fox 2, a title that had never been released before. Demand will be high no matter what, so hopefully for fans, Nintendo’s promise of a significantly bigger distribution means everyone will be walking away happy from this one.
The SNES Classic will be available on September 29, 2017.
