I'm almost positive it's Japanese-only.
Also, good luck finding one there. From what I've heard/read, it's pretty much sold out everywhere.

This is fantastic news, it probably confirms that NERD used the Wii U emulation as a base to work from.
She probably wouldn't be having an affair if she could play the SNES classic. Walmart fucked up.
Well whaddya know, I get back from lunch and the status changed to "Shipped" with a FedEx tracking number. Let's see if it makes the Oct 5th delivery date.
Mine finally arrived, it's two days late but eh I got £10 credit from Amazon as result so I am cool.
I messed about with Donkey Kong Country first, which seems fitting as that was the game that made me wanted to own a SNES but I was like 7 and too stupid to know what the system and game was called.
I then tried out Star Fox, very jarring since I played Star Fox 64 first but I can see how it was ground breaking at the time though I was really impressed when I booted it up.
To finish off I played Super Mario World, really fun game and I would have probably liked it when I was younger.
Anyway I plan to homebrew the system to add more games like Donkey Kong 2 and 3, though I have no idea how to go about doing that.

Excellent news! This little bundle of plastic keeps on giving lol
So I never *really* played Super Mario World... I mean, of course, like anybody who was old enough at the time I played around a bit in a couple of levels but I never got far or serious about it.
I tried it last night and man do I sucks at 2D Mario games Haha. I had no problems finishing both Galaxy games and 3D World but I can't do a simple precise jump to save my life in the early SMW levels lol.
I guess I need more practice.

what menus would there be that you can't just fumble your way through (three filters, creating a save state). the games are obviously all JP versions.

For what it's worth, I'm rooting for you! Don't give up hope! You got this!
I find mario world to be the most sensitive to input lag of the mario games, it has both more internal lag and less inertia to smooth things over, so it may not just be your skills

The one game I would want to mod this for
(I've only ever played my German original cart from back in the day)Did you use a 60Hz-patched one?

What made these games so hard to emulate?

They contain a custom Capcom CX4 chip.
Special chip that enabled the games to do 3D wire-frame models.
Ah, didn't know that. Glad to know that this emulator supports that though... can't wait to play through these.
We're almost there!!!
Its almost like Nintendo 'expected' fans to mod this and left in support for other games..
Future proofing at its best

or the guys at NERD are just super nerds themselves and are modding their units themselves for home use
Yes, they left a message in the SNES CE too. I can't find the article right now.Its almost like Nintendo 'expected' fans to mod this and left in support for other games..

Probably just code re-use from the Wii / Wii U and/or 3ds VC codebase.
No one reinvents the wheel if they don't have to.

Dude, I know that feel. Expedited shipping my ass. My Walmart order shipped out late Thursday night. Tracking went nowhere over the weekend. Finally moved this morning and I find out it skipped over my state entirely and now it's delayed two more days. Won't be here until Thursday now, supposedly.
I'm just so used to 2-day shipping and then having that show up a day early anyway.
Condolences for those still waiting for theirs to ship.
Man, that looks so jumbled compared to the SFC cover. Epic box art though

Nice! How were you able to do that?

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Mine's expected Wednesday. I'm fine with that.
All you Walmart 8/25 people are giving me hope
I'm very happy to be wrong. I was utterly convinced that they shipped every available unit by the end of the day Friday. Really surprised a bunch of us are getting shipments out today.

I just played mine for the first time, and OMG this thing is amazing!!! All those games for £69!!
And that beautiful beautiful controller. It's sooooo comfortable. I don't know why Nintendo don't release all their consoles with that dpad. Much better than the Wii U one.
BTW why do these games seem more fun now for me than VC or emulation? I reckon the games were made with this controller in mind.
I feel like I am 14 again.

Or they originally had Capcim offering X3 and they changed their minds.
