*Squeals in childhood delight* FINALLY! I've been waiting for this announcement from Nintendo since they released the Nintendo Classic last year. It's not that the original Nintendo wasn't good but the Super Nintendo was my very first system that I had that was my own and I played it ALL the time. Especially being an only child on my mom's side. But enough about my childhood and delight let me share what is already known about this sweet piece of nostalgia!
The SNES Classic will come preloaded with 21 games, and while it looks just like the original it is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand! So you can slide that ride beside the cable box or just about anywhere if you're tight on space. This probably makes it way easier to pack up with the kids if you're going to a relatives house that doesn't have anything for them to do. But anyway, it will also come with an HDMI cable to connect and get this...it will come with 2 controllers while the NES Classic only came with one. The controllers are wires and are 4 ft long..so you will be sitting kind of close to the television..but who cares?!?!

There are no preorders available yet stateside, but you can sign up for the alert when it's available on Amazon, BestBuy or Walmart. This is on my must have list this year (I'm a big kid sometimes don't judge me) I have a feeling this will go faster than the Nintendo Classic released last year.
