## Why It Plays With Super Power, Again!

1. While it's more expensive ($60 against $80) and has less games (21 games against 30 games) than its predecessor, SNES games are significantly more in-depth and have more content than NES games so it's still a very good deal (assuming you find it at retail price).
2. Fantastic choice of games included.
3. The controller's cable is much longer than the NES Classic's, although it's still rather short compared to an original SNES controller. It also includes two controllers out of the box.
4. *Star Fox 2*, which was originally cancelled due to the release of the Nintendo 64, was released in an official form! It would later return on the SNES Online for the Switch.
5. Once again, the controller is almost identical to the original SNES and you can also use a Pro Controller if you want.
6. Emulation is still near perfect. This is because the hardware is the same as the NES Classic.
7. Many features from the NES Classic such as filters and save states return.
8. Rewind feature lets you rewind games for up to 1 minute. This is good for when you die in a game and would lose a lot of progress.

## Bad Qualities

1. While it's good that the system has two controllers, there aren't that many 2 player games.
2. As with its predecessor, the console uses the Wii Remote's accessory connector instead of USB Type A for the controllers, locking out the ability to use the classic controller on PC without adapters.
3. Some of the SNES' most iconic games not made by Nintendo such as *Chrono Trigger* weren't included. Although to be fair, the SNES version of Chrono Trigger is outdated compared to the PS1 and DS versions.
4. Though not as badly as the NES Classic Edition, and despite promising more stock, Nintendo used artificial scarcity on this item to some degree.

## Reception

The announcement of the SNES Classic were met very positively, but also with concerns that scalpers would inflate the price just like with the NES Classic last year. In response, Nintendo said that this time they do know the system is in high demand so they promised they would produce far more units and took measures to prevent scalpers from taking entire stocks.

Reviews for the SNES classic were also very positive and according to several reports stores do indeed have more stock than last time. That being said, scalpers are still hunting the system.
