Pretty good list, especially Kirby's Dream Course

No CT or DKC2 D:

I'll still take FFVI though
---

How the hell does CT not make this list? How?!
---

if it's as easy to mod as the NES Classic was then we'll have all the SNES games on this thing

Because Square has never recognized and will never recognize just how popular a game it is.
---

Square is obviously saving CT for the DS Classic
---

best version of CT
---

That list is phenominal though. I'd swap Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts with Chrono Trigger and it would be perfect.

And you know, the MMX and DKC sequels.
---

DKC yeah but I'll take MMX over X2 and X3 any day
---

Shine, I need your backup on keeping an eye out for preorders.

@ninkendo
---

Oh, and fantastic line up. More would obviously be nice, but this will be a bargain either way.
---

Lack of the full DKC trilogy is very disappointing.

That's the big question right now
---

We wait with bated breath
---

Solid list
---

I need to know when and where to preorder!

That is a solid list of games. I am all in. I am still kinda bummed that I never got my hands on a NES Classic. I guess I can look forward to never finding this either...
---

At least they included the second controller in the box this time, instead of telling you there was a second controller sold separately that nobody ever actually had. So they're really only jacking the net price up by $10.

Sadly there doesn't look like there'll be a way to play 3 player Secret of Mana which REALLY makes me wonder why we're getting that instead of Chrono Trigger.

I also wonder if the included Star Fox 2 is gonna be the incomplete ROM that's been floating around for years, or if it'll be the actual complete version.

http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/04/dylan_cuthbert_talks_about_star_fox_the_old_sequel_rom_and_working_at_nintendo

As for Star Fox 2, Cuthbert insisted once again that the widely circulated 'leaked' ROM is not fully representative of the final product, and frankly we'll take his word for it - some try to argue that it's a final build of the game, as if they'd actually know better than Cuthbert. In any case, he wrote a little about the disappointment of that game never being released, and why we're unlikely to ever see its final form in public.

"It was very disappointing of course, I had spent two years making the game and put so many ideas into it. I could understand the marketing/publisher logic behind the decision but it was still disappointing. I can't really comment on that [feelings about the ROM], and it's illegal to do reproduction cartridges. The videos I've seen of that build show it to be an old build and not the final one as there are some major gameplay elements missing such as the rogue-style encounter system and more variations of the various arenas and setups. I doubt Starfox 2 will ever get a proper release because it would require re-negotiating contracts with Argonaut, which of course doesn't really exist now."

nobody is talking about how Super Street Fighter got snubbed here

I prefer DK 1 over the other 2 anyways and CT IS hurting (but I feel FFVI, Secret of Mana, and SMRPG makes up for it)

but why not include the most advanced version of a game with more characters

This. The $100 Amazon gift card I won from our joke of a contest will finally get put to good use
---

Star Fox 2 waaat
---

I'm pleasantly surprised that Secret of Mana made the cut.

Turbo is the more "nostalgic" game probably. Super didn't have much chance, if they were gonna go with a less popular but "better" game then why not do Street Fighter Alpha 2?
---

This just proves to me once and for all that I don't really "get" the Super Nintendo. I've always thought that the majority of the most popular games on the system were underwhelming to me, and reading that list did not pop out to me like the NES Classic's list (even considering the number of filler games on the NESC).

because the SNES version was horrible

Pro-ordered from Amazon UK before they changed to "not shipping to US"

We'll see how long it takes to cancel mine
---

yeah preorders are up for a lot of UK retailers but that doesn't do me any good
---

So at this rate the n64 classic will come with 10 games
---

that's about how many they released on the Virtual Console

Have you ever been able to maintain the Switch in stock for any period of time at your store yet?

I mean that's about the total number of must-have games
---

Approximately one (1) Chrono Trigger short of perfection*? Yeah, sure, I'll buy it.

You know, if they make enough.

And as promised, with the inclusion of Earthbound, I will buy two, supply permitting.

* = Value of perfection in this context is highly subjective and may or may not reflect your own opinion.
