Plug-and-play SNES Classic coming Sept. 29 for $80 with two controllers

Following on the recently discontinued NES Classic Edition, Nintendo has officially announced a long-rumored SNES Classic Edition follow-up will be available on September 29 in a $80 package that includes two wired controllers.

The highlight of the package is the first official release of Star Fox 2, which Nintendo’s announcement notes “was created during the Super NES era but never released … anywhere!” While an emulatable, leaked prototype version of Star Fox 2 has been floating around online for years, Creator Dylan Cuthbert confirmed in 2015 that development on a completely finished version of the game was completed just before the project was cancelled, reportedly to avoid competition with the coming Nintendo 64. The SNES Classic will be the first chance gamers have to try this full version of the title.
