Best products from r/miniSNES

The two most popular cases are the RDS case and the PDP case. I don’t own the PDP case but I did research it before purchasing the RDS case. Both cases hold everything that’s included. The RDS case holds the controllers in the top while the PDP case has dedicated cutouts in the foam for the two controllers. The RDS case is superior for storage because it has extra room after storing the basic items (console, controllers, power cord/adapter, HDMI cable). Most people tend to use that extra storage space for controller extension cables. The RDS case is also $10 cheaper on amazon.

To sum it up...

If storage and price are your main concerns, go with RDS.

RDS Case

If you don’t care about price, want a hard plastic shell, foam cut-outs for your controllers, and prefer the aesthetics of the PDP case then go with that one. Some people really like the look of it with the swappable game cards on the front. To each their own!

PDP Case

!!!!!!!!!!!!DON'T BUY WALL ADAPTER OP POSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get a Trusted Brand you don't want it to Burn your House Down or Fry your Super Nintendo Classic. A lot of these Cheap Generic Power Adapters Bought off eBay can fry what ever you Plug into them. Some of them can even fry the Wiring in your House. I wouldn't Risk it Especially since the Super Nintendo Classic will be so Hard to find a replacement. also Nintendo wouldn't Cover it due to Electric Shock. Not worth Saving a few Dollar's.

Here are some I recommend.

____

Official Adapter:


More thin Likely the SNES Classic will use the same Board in that Case it will only need 1A in that case the Official Adapter is the perfect Choose.

You mean a bidirectional hdmi switch?

https://www.amazon.com/Bi-direction-Manual-Switch-Passthrough-Supports-DotStone/dp/B01L8LLP2G

• Will it work? Yes
  
• Have it used one? No
  
• How do I know it will work? I read the product description and plan to use the same switch to hook us a NES and SNES to one monitor
  
• What if it doesnt work? Return it
  
• But...I spent $X.xx what if it does not work? Again, return it and stop asking the same questions. Laziness isn't an excuse and judging by your experience with analog signals I'll wager your old enough to help yourself. Time and effort spent finding a solution is part of the experience! Yes someone else may have done this already, or you could be the first! Take a possible solution and come back to this community with the answer.
  
  Edit: Given you have the disposable income to purchase a snes classic and free time to play said games.... You have enough money for a hdmi splitter and enough time (if you get a factory defect/ D.O.A product) to return it for a functioning one. Cheers
  

YEp it's pretty bad at about $35 if you don't need tracking (First class which is the cheapest method) I traded one to someone in Australia and was able to drop the shipping price to $23.50 by removing the AC power cable and HDMI cable ( we both just kept the ones that came with our units - I did send the AC adapter since the AU version did not come with one and the US one did) - and then watching how much packaging material was used and cutting 2 of the 4 flaps off the box on top and bottom and taping it shut) -- The USPS charges $23.50 for up to 2 Lbs. and then 2Lbs. 1 oz. goes up to $35 - and the US unit as it comes weigh a couple ounces over 2 Lbs. but removing the 2 cables gets it under 2 lbs. enough to allow it to be put in a box wrapped in bubble wrap.

IF you don't mind modding it - the easiest way would be to get the JP version from Amazon Japan for $85 shipped ( you have to change the site language to english and sign up for an account but it isn't too bad ) and it usually takes less than a week to arrive ) - https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B075MK6THW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AN1VRQENFRJN5&psc=1

OR if you don't want to sign up for an account there Amazon US has them for $91 ( https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Super-Famicom-Classic-Console-Japanese/dp/B075MK6THW/ref=sr_1_5?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1519695872&sr=1-5&keywords=snes+mini)

Then either sell the US one or Return it and then mod the Japanese version to English or set it up as a dual boot with both the Japanese set of games and the US set. ( OR keep both ! )

I got a bit carried away and wound up with one of each version - https://s26.postimg.org/74o3571vb/collection.jpg

This is the case that the GameStop email was mentioning about. It’s quite pricy at $29.99, and it comes with 6 game faceplates: Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, Link to the Past, F-Zero, Super Metroid and Star Fox 2.

They're up for pre-order at Amazon.

> They currently sell the 2DS for $80.

Apples and oranges. A 2DS has a high potential for other purchases beyond the the device (further games, accessories, downloads). A Hypothetical miniGB would be one-and-done.

> TV hookups would be optional

Didn't you just say cost to build it wouldn't be an issue? Adding this feature to a device that already has a screen that is a one and done device would be quite a jump from that of an NES/SNES mini that has a single output.

> could be done through local wireless connectivity

Still saying cost to produce wouldn't be an issue? Already it sounds like way more than it's worth for nostalgia sake.

> I actually think the N64 Classic will be a harder sell because you'd need to buy at least two extra controllers

You mean no one would be willing to buy additional official nintendo controllers like these? Honestly, the N64 assuming it happens, can just as easily come with 2 controllers (which is plenty for a solid 64 experience). Hard sell? Really? Let's be honest. You (and everyone else on this forum) would buy 2 additional controllers without thinking twice, some would even buy 3 more... at least.

With the NES and SNES Classics, each use a 5v 1A USB power adapter. From what I've heard, they run fine on half an amp, but I would stick to spec. The PlayStation Classic is supposed to have the same requirement.

If you are thinking of getting something like this that provides multiple USB ports from one outlet, then that is fine. Since each port can meet the requirements of the consoles, you won't have any problems.

If you are thinking of getting something like this that splits the cables, don't do that.

That's what one of the employees I talked to said. Then I went to customer service and asked about it. I gave them the SKU number and it showed my store having many more than the employee thought. That'd probably your best best

The wii classic and Wii Classic pro both work very well. The club Nintendo promotional super Famicom controller should work too.
Sky Blue Hori Classic Wired Turbo Controller for Nintendo Gamecube and Wii https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001JEODG8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_WvPZzbG6AXZ02

This controller above works very well and the turbo buttons work flawlessly.

Just like the NESCE, Prima had a tie-in Playing With Super Power book that launched with the SNESCE. There is a HC and SC edition.

I don’t own it; I can’t speak to its contents. But I’m sure there are lots of reviews to consult.

Edit: Link fixed (I think)

I just bought some generic wii pro controllers from amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XH1FV3A/

They are no longer available, but I have loved the controllers, I rarely use the regular ones anymore. I am sure you can find similar ones.

You have to "install" a controller receiver. But it just plugs on the controller port. Nothing internal or strange. Plug, sync, and play.

I use the Switch Pro Controller with an 8bitdo retro receiver but it's also compatible with PS3, PS4, Wii remotes, Wii U pro controller and every 8bitdo controller. Works great!
You can update the receiver's firmware via USB, and all the buttons work as intended. You can even use Select+down to go to the menu.

Edit: Page says Pre order, but it's been available for months and it0s only 1299 on Amazon.

I had contemplated this very issue a few weeks ago. I have all the classics and a few other consoles in the kid's room. I ended up getting the Monoprice 8X1 Enhanced Powered HDMI Switcher w/ Remote. No usb ports, I have all the consoles plugged into the 12 port Amazon basics surge protector. Only gripe is the LEDs are pretty bright. I also went with this model because it had buttons on the front of it to select input. Made it easier for the kids to use.

Speaking of SNES books, does anyone know much about the SNES "Playing with Super Power" book I keep seeing everywhere? Is the publisher any good?

8bitdo SNES adapter. Allows you to hook up pretty much any bluetooth controller. 8Bitdo Retro Receiver for SNES Classic, SFC Classic and NES Classic (Bluetooth) - Super NES; https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076B995TL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_CDD2CbHKWV17B

Like this for 69.99 pounds: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B073BVHY3F/ref=mw_dp_olp?ie=UTF8&condition=all

Directly from amazon.uk and it states it has amazon global shipping

I understand and I know the NA version looks like the one we used to have. No problem, good luck!

Does anyone know if this will be compatible with the snes classic too? I already have an original nes30 gamepad that I would love to use.

At the moment, there is one by PDP; however, the release date is November 15th (Don't know why thou.). o_0 I'm hoping for RDS as well, guess we'll see next week. :)

Interested in cheap? I am. Some of the cheap ones for the NESC had lots of wireless disconnection complaints. The My Arcade GamePad did not so I got it. It's been really reliable so I'm happy with it. They make a fairly cheap My Arcade GamePad Pro version with buttons that should work on the SNESC (I think/hope). So I'll probably end up with one or two of them. The controller look and shape is completely unauthentic, but cheap will probably win for me...

And right now on my WiiU I'm able to play NES, SNES, N64, GC, Wii, and WiiU games with homebrew. You can also head to eBay to pick up a SNES controller that plugs into Wii remotes (or Amazon, apparently... wow) to play SNES games the way they were meant to be played. It's a golden age.

The PDP case is released this coming Wednesday. Review units have gone out and it looks pretty good.

How about ordering the much more beautiful uk version from amazon uk ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Classic-Mini-Console-Entertainment/dp/B073BVHY3F

I've got My Arcade's 2 button and 4 button NES Classic controllers. Both work really well. Hopefully this one will too. On the 4 button, everything is mapped the same as a Wii Classic Controller.

My Walmart order is still good to go for Oct 3. :)

Anyway I just got a Meesage from Eu Amazon that pre-order went up at 5:30am this morning on 7/26/2017 from my email, but when i went to link to https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B073BVHY3F/ref=pe_2515591_197852591_em_1p_0_ti it said out stock still. Was it a all ready out of stock or not real update for pre-order and amazon jump the gun on the update for pre-order?

Did you know Amazon will donate a portion of every purchase if you shop by going to smile.amazon.com instead? Over $50,000,000 has been raised for charity - all you need to do is change the URL!

I use this microSD card to USB adapter, which came with one of my miscroSD cards:https://www.picclickimg.com/00/s/MTA2NlgxNjAw/z/kHYAAOSwjDZYgO3E/$/SANDISK-NEW-Micro-SD-to-USB-Memory-Card-_1.jpg

looks like this when the microSD card is inside: https://www.picclickimg.com/00/s/MTA2NlgxNjAw/z/DhEAAOSw9GhYgO3J/$/SANDISK-NEW-Micro-SD-to-USB-Memory-Card-_57.jpg

then I plug this inside the OTG, I ordered this, which gave me two adapters with different angles and one of them fits for the snes. https://www.ebay.com/itm/333312241438

but of course you can also go for something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OCBXIY8

if you use the multi OTG, you can just stick your SD card or microSD card inside one of its slots and won't have to use any USB adapter.

I'm not sure if Nintendo's going to make one, but there's a really nice Nintebdo licensed PDP one for preorder here

Looking at Amazon they do already have several products like controllers out there, so I don't doubt they will release this. Then again, judging only by Amazon reviews for their NES GamePad Pro the reactions are very mixed.

Pricey, but this is 1st party: https://www.amazon.com/Club-Nintendo-Super-Famicom-Classic-Controller/dp/B004TL1K0A/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1502379984&sr=8-2&keywords=snes+wii+controller

[Amazon France] (https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B073BVHY3F) is where I ordered mine this morning, use Google translate. It did cost $130 with the currency exchange and shipping, but I like the look of this better than the US

There was even an official SNES controller that was available as part of club nintendo: https://www.amazon.com/Club-Nintendo-Super-Famicom-Classic-Controller/dp/B004TL1K0A/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1503322075&sr=1-1&keywords=snes+wii It's kind of expensive now, but it certainly was possible to use real controllers.

Amazon. I just looked up the order, It was $10.99 for 2 extension cables, both 13' long. There's plenty on Amazon that come with either 1 or 2 cords if you do or don't need both. I think there was a listing for $9.99 for two that are 10' long each, but the extra dollar was worth another 3'.

Try and pick up a nes classic controller to go with it as they were sold separately and will be a nice extra if you add nes Games later and he wanted to use the NES controller.

It ships internationally however you will need to create a separate account for Amazon Japan.

Nice, that means I can use my 8bitdo NES Classic dongle with it.

I really like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Classic-Deluxe-Carrying-Nintendo-Console-907-001/dp/B075MXXHCG

It's going to be cool using the SNES controllers on the NES Classic. I do feel bad for the people who dropped $70+ on the Club Nintendo Super Famicom controller.

I found one on Amazon, for $100USD. Seems worth it to me even if I can get the US one on gamestop for $80, I would rather spend the extra on the EU one.

Amazon

Controller

Receiver

Of course this is the SNES controller that closely resembles the SNES. There are other options.

This is the cheapest option if you want the controller and receiver, especially if you get it used.

$33.46 for hardcover. paperback is $17.99. Amazon link:

https://www.amazon.com/Playing-Super-Power-Nintendo-Classics/dp/0744018706/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1503439686&sr=1-1&keywords=playing+with+super+power

It fits the controllers fine. I have the club nintendo super famicom wii controller (https://www.amazon.com/Club-Nintendo-Super-Famicom-Classic-Controller/dp/B004TL1K0A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1505507544&sr=8-1&keywords=club+nintendo+snes+controller) and use it as a second controller for my nes classic and it fits in the case. The foam sort of molds around the sides of the controller since it is slightly wider than an nes controller. I would imagine the snes would fit as well though the cutout may not be exactly perfect. That foam kind of molds around stuff though so it would probably work fine if they don't release a new one and the snes classic is the same size or slightly larger. If it was smaller it might flop around but I doubt it is smaller.
