Nintendo is reportedly planning to release a Classic version of one of the most iconic game consoles ever created, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. If the company is to follow its tradition, the new system might be named Snes Classic Edition.
According to reports, Nintendo might launch the SNES Mini in time for the Christmas season this year.
SNES Classic Edition to replace NES Classic Edition
Reports suggest that one of the possible reasons for Nintendo’s abrupt discontinuation of the popular NES Mini is to make way for the SNES Mini. Last week, the company explained that the NES Mini was not meant to be a long-term console and was only a novelty item for the Christmas of last year.
However, the NES Mini was a surprise hit and became more popular than Nintendo has ever anticipated, causing for the stocks to be sold out most of the time. The company was not able to extend the Classic Edition’s production run.
