Go to inventory checker, 045496590758 is the upc. Should show you how many, not sure how accurate lol.

I just caught this! Cool! Hey, do you think you could do the community a favour? Can you dump the remaining 20 ROMs from the SNES Classic and see if any of them have any changes versus the most recent commercial releases -- I'm sure someone else is going to do this eventually but it'd be cool to know.

Did we ever find out if there are differences in any of the other games? Maybe someone if they have the checksums of each of the dumped ROMs can simply search to see if they are new. Depending on how they are dumped they may or may include a header or small alterations to the file that would result in a different checksum, but it's just a thought.

I'd be really curious if there are small changes in some of the games years later and don't really know if someone is on top of this. For example, I believe the Japan release of Gold and Silver for 3DS VC had some sprite work changes for Jynx - stuff like this I would imagine might be touched up or religious imagery.

Any way to check best buy/gamestop?

 

[Chittagong]

Does the EU version have EU box art? My ocd can’t handle a mismatch

 

[Wingfan19]

Mine just arrived from Best Buy to my work... But I'm home sick today. :riceisrightlosersound::

 

[honestrade]

Talked with my local Walmart and they will be handing out tickets at 10:30. Limit 1 per customer. Going to try to get there around 8:30 and hope for the best. They have 32 in stock according to brickseek.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Did any place in the US have these for preorder? I'm seeing people talking about their Best Buy orders arriving, but I was never notified they were up for preorder.

Best Buy, Amazon, Target, Wal-Mart and GameStop all had preorders available.

There's one close Walmart that's 24 hours so I'll give that a shot.

I have one shipped from the site coming on Oct 4, so if I can't get it locally, I'll have one waiting at home soon.

I'm not sure I haven't been able to check there stock either. I was actually wondering the same thing though.

 

[Atilac]

Any sense when we will be able to hack it and add more games?

 

[esmith08734]

Not sure what to go for..

Target is 1 mile away, not on my way to work, though, opens at 8.

There’s a 24 hour Walmart across the street from work but I don’t know if there will be any available at 6am tomorrow (earliest I am willing to go for this).

The problem is the toll over the bridge to work. It costs $6. So I can’t go back and forth between that Walmart and Target if I try Walmart first.

If you arent going to be at walmart at midnight, you should just go to Target.
You could always Call the 24 hour walmart on your way to target.

If you aren’t gonna go to Walmart tonight don’t bother going there.

Edit: Beaten.

My Amazon UK order says it'll arrive 29th before 9pm, but they haven't even shipped the bloody thing yet!

They've got a about an hour left to ship mine before they become liars.

 

[AtomicShroom]

Wow. Super Mario Kart in 60Hz is a completely different experience.

Um just what did you play it on that made it not be 60fps?

 

[Lkr]

did you guys succeed in killing brickseek?

thinking about getting in line at target around 5am. that got me a switch, can't imagine this will be that much worse

 

[MrChocolate]

Um just what did you play it on that made it not be 60fps?

Europe if I guess.

 

[esmith08734]

Thanks guys. Going to try and get to Target by 6am.

 

[Disfunctional]

If it helps some of the stuff I get shipped from Amazon UK for next day goes out as late as 2am.

Still waiting on my shipping confirmation too

Edit: Just been dispatched 23:14

 

[Robin64]

European SNES, man. The world of 50Hz. NES, SNES, Genesis.. all ruined.

Edit: Amazon UK order just dispatched. "Arriving tomorrow".

 

[Stumpokapow]

For the SNES Classic Club, the substitutes for the US/EU games only will be:
Super Punch-Out!! -> Super Soccer
Earthbound -> Fire Emblem 3
Super Castlevania IV -> Goemon
Street Fighter 2 Turbo -> Super Street Fighter 2
Kirby's Dream Course -> Panel de Pon

Super Soccer suuuuucks

Is there a thread for the club yet?

Hm? EU has the same games as US.

Edit: Oh I misunderstood, you mean these are the changes for the Japanese players.

Yup mines been updated now too to despatched

 

[Robin64]

And yes, Super Soccer is terrible. One of the worst soccer games. If I had a Japanese SNES Mini, I'd be replacing it with Sensible Soccer.

 

[hlhbk]

Has anyone who got one already been able to confirm if it can be modded to add more games?

 

[Gaiaknight]

it is there is also people that managed to convert it to a NES classic its literly the same hardware on the inside.

 

[dLMN8R]

Will there be any way to use my 8bitdo snes wireless controller on the SNES classic?

This thing worked for the NES Classic, and I just ordered it in hopes that it'll work for the SNES classic too:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MQWUT0Q/?tag=neogaf0e-20

 

[Lkr]

tried calling my walmart to see what the deal is, i get an automated "the number you tried to call is busy, please try again later". is walmart only able to take one call at a time now? lol

 

[Earthbound64]

Appropriate title change.

 

[Kalnos]

I can't believe Amazon UK honored my order from the US. I'll take it.

 

[Persona7]

Every walmart in my area updated and they all have 90+. Every target has 60-90.

 

[Lkr]

so the employee who answered the phone for walmart electronics says they don't have any in stock yet. what?!?!

 

[Username1198]

Every walmart in my area updated and they all have 90+. Every target has 60-90.

This is baffling to me. The average around me is 30 for Walmart, unknown at target. If my Walmart was getting 90+ I'd feel pretty confident on getting one. 30 is making me nervous. I live in a busy area too.

I'll have both. You got a master passport for us no-lifers?

 

[Stumpokapow]

As of right now it'll be possible to submit the stamp requires for both the US/EU and the Japanese games. At some point between now and the middle of next year I'll have to figure out what happens if someone gets more than 63 stamps or more than 21 Star Stamps.

 

[VeeP]

I got mine! From Best Buy.

 

[baddvision]

hell yes amazon uk shipped! aha friday the 13th, okay i can wait. hacking it right away

 

[ThisIsMyDogKyle]

I never managed to get an NES Classic so I'm not sure how it works but when hacked and we can add our other games to it do they show up in title selection screen with all the other games? and can we add the picture of the boxart for them? Would be awesome if they blended right in.

From my understanding, yes. It would allow you to add boxart and you could keep the same UI.

 

[starry sonata]

Yo! My Walmart pre-order just shipped! Though...I won't be able to play it until December since it will be a gift for my brother's b-day...

Spoiler

Hope he doesn't end up buying one for himself.

 

[jshackles]

which it probably will, but ya'll need to keep your expectations in check

Best Buy comes through early again. UPS just delivered my classic.

tl;dr: It doesn't work properly.

Thanks to Best Buy, SNES Mini Classic get!

 

[p_xavier]

Does the EU version have EU box art? My ocd can’t handle a mismatch

No, all US boxarts, in game and on the back of the console box.

 

[Matticers]

According to brickseek, my local 24 hour Walmart only has 40 systems. I tried to call them to see if they would definitely be on sale at midnight and if they would be handing out tickets or just making a line or something but... nobody answers the phone there. I might just waltz in there at 11pm and see what's going on.

 

[LucidMomentum]

Yeah, that's what I meant. The hardware and software seem pretty similar to the NES classic which worked that way, so here's hoping!
