Rumor: More talk of a SNES Mini coming this year
Posted on June 24, 2017 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors
A couple of months ago, we heard that Nintendo could be planning a SNES Mini / SNES Classic Edition. No details were provided at the time, but a release by the end of the year is apparently planned.
Destructoid now has its own report stating that the SNES Mini will be available this year – specifically in time for the holidays. The site spoke with three different GameStop managers who said that the hardware is coming. It’s unclear how much they know and if what was mentioned can be trusted, but one manager said that Nintendo partially wants “foot traffic”.
Nintendo revealed the NES Classic Edition in mid-July last year for a November launch. If the SNES Mini is happening this year, perhaps an announcement could be made next month.
