    Got my SNES Mini. I walked into work for shopping and saw we got more of them in and grabbed one.

    I'm amazed that Nintendo went as far as replicating the plastic wrapping the controllers and even the cable ties of the original.

    Time to add DKC 2 and 3 to the SNES.

    Long story short, modding the snes mini's software.
    You can find videos on the subject here, or here, or even here, take your pick.
    Please note that this will void any warranties, and you're on your own finding the games ~cough, gutsmans post, cough~ to do the mod but that's how you do it

    Yeah it was incredibly easy to add games to it. Honestly the hardest part was dumping the stock firmware because it required a little finger dexterity.

    I think as of now a genuine 90's SNES if off the shopping list for my retro gaming collection and I probably won't rebuy any SNES games if they come out for the Switch.

    I hope Nintendo wasn't just registering the trademark on Nintendo 64 Classic to keep it out the hands of others. I'd really like a N64 Classic even though I own carts of all the N64 titles I care about currently and have a N64 console. Just hope they upgrade the controller a little with an analog stick that won't get loose and build in rumble.

    Enough emu talk, got me some real games today! Tiny Toons from Yahoo Auctions and the N64 games from casual walk-in to recycle shop! They had a nice Super Mario 64 as well but opening up i was greeted with a copy of Mario Party 3. Someone had stuffed the Mario 64 manual into the Mario Golf box so i got that at least




    I did get weak and buy a Super Famicom Classic Mini last weekend as well though. They got restocked at my local and there was heaps of them taunting me
    Glad i got it though, have been enjoying a lot of Panel De Pon/Tetris Attack with my wife. Not worried about hacking it, got my already sullied Wii for that business, and now i've got more controllers to use with it!

    ^ So is it easy and cheap to find nice condition carts in Japan? So much of the stuff I see locally and on ebay is loose carts that look crap.
