The Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System launches on September 29th with 21 games including the never before released Star Fox 2!

The Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System arrives this September and continues the legacy of the NES Mini, offering up a bunch of pre-installed classic games that are emulated to perfection, in a small replica of the original console.

This time, the console comes with not one but two wired SNES controllers so you can jump right into the likes of Street Fighter 2 and Super Mario Kart with a friend. With a HDMI cable included, you can enjoy these classic titles in HD.

There are a bunch of classic titles available, some of which are very hard to come across in Europe, such as EarthBound and Super Mario RPG, both of which weren't available for the SNES in Europe and only playable via the Wii and Wii U Virtual Console. The SNES Mini also features Star Fox 2, a complete and unreleased sequel to the classic series that never saw the light of day. Scroll down for the full press release and list of available games. 

On 29th September the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo’s follow-up console to the legendary Nintendo Entertainment System, returns in a new petite form as the Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Launched in Europe in 1992, the Super Nintendo introduced what many consider some of the greatest video games of all time – classics such as Super Mario World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Super Mario Kart, Super Metroid and F-ZERO.

The Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System contains 21 pre-installed classic games, can easily be plugged into any high-definition TV using the included HDMI cable. For the first time, players who pick up the system can enjoy the intergalactic adventure Star Fox 2, the sequel to the original Star Fox (originally titled Starwing upon release in Europe) game that was created during the Super Nintendo era but never released ... anywhere!

The Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System has the same look and feel of the original system – only smaller – and comes pre-loaded with 21 games:

· 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!!™

· Yoshi’s Island™

All of these games would be considered classics by anyone’s standards, and some of them in particular – Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy III, EarthBound and Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars – are massive role-playing games that can take dozens of hours to complete. Even for super fans who have played all of these games multiple times, the inclusion of the never-before-released Star Fox 2 will offer them something entirely new to enjoy (players must prove their skill by completing the first level of the original Star Fox before Star Fox 2 is unlocked to play).

Included with the Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System are one HDMI cable, one USB power cable*, and two wired Super NES Classic Controllers – perfect for players to dive into multiplayer action right away. Some of the games with multiplayer options include Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting, Super Mario Kart, Contra III: The Alien Wars™and Secret of Mana.

Step back into the 90s and re-experience some timeless classics when the Nintendo Classic Mini: Super Nintendo Entertainment System launches in Europe on 29th September.
