Manufacturer description
Original Nintendo SNES Classic. This is not a knock off, it's the original Nintendo released SNES Classic in great used condition. It comes with both controllers and power cord. It was modded with the kernel and has a bunch of extra games on it, not just the 30.
SpecPicks Verdict
SpecPicks scored Super Nintendo SNES Classic Edition Video Game Console Tested Works using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the retro consoles category. Nintendo's retro consoles lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.
