One of the big surprises is the inclusion of Star Fox 2. This game was never officially released, despite being largely finished. Some ROMs were available via emulators, but there’s been no official way to play the game until now.

The SNES Classic Edition will arrive in stores on September 29th. Let’s hope that Nintendo is better prepared this time, as the NES Classic Edition was never easy to find before its sudden discontinuation.
