SNES Mini £69-£79 - Out Now!

Missed Argos, but just got one from Toys R Us

Why the hell did Argos give away £10? They would have sold out no matter what

The RRP is £69.99

No way mate the RRP is £79, no £89, actually if you're nice to me, £99. These people are just lentil-munching hippies thinking they can leave us to carry around spare change, the bastards. Shut up and take my money.

Does it do 3 or 4 player?

(Sorry if this has been covered earlier in the thread I didn't see it)

I don't think so. The SNES only had some 4 player games using a multi-tap thing right? Like Micromachines on the megadrive did. It comes with 2 wired controlers.

Aye that's right. The only multitap game on the Mini is Secret of Mana, which goes up to 3 player for co-op.

Oh I forgot Mario Kart wasn't 4 Player, that was street racer, was that 8 player on the snes? or was it on PSX?

Be careful paying up front deposits to GAME...

Yet another profit warning, hence the 'cash up front' pre-order scheme.

Street Racer was just four player on the SNES.

Man, could you imagine if they went under before people got their pre-order SNES systems...and also ended up £50 out of pocket. That rage!

I remember my copy of Micro Machines had controller ports on the cartridge itself. I think that was Micro Machines Military.

I don't know why anyone in the know would pre order anything from Game.

GameXplain got a brief hands on at at a recent event in NYC, they were allowed to see the machine, controllers (with longer cables), box but not play the games:

The US Machine is so fugly! PAL Machine and JAP Box Art for the win :wub:

That Japanese boxart really is a work of art.

Got one from argos and they've already charged me.

The SNES Classic Mini rollercoaster continues. Yesterday UK fans were surprised by the sudden arrival of pre-orders on popular retail chain Argos' website, and many duly placed an order, happy in the knowledge that they had secured what will no doubt be one of the most desirable video game consoles of 2017.

However, today we're hearing reports that the retailer is cancelling some of these orders without any explanation:

They cancel mine I'll be well pissed. Glad I haven't cancelled my Shopto order yet.

This is why people make multiple pre-orders and end up stopping other people making them in the process.

Play-Asia have Mini Famicoms up for sale: http://www.play-asia.com/nintendo-class ... /13/70akhb £79.13

If I had money to burn I would get that. The game listing does look a little better and I bet it's easy to hack it like the Western version and patch in English ROMs.
