The Super NES Classic Edition has a couple of hidden features worth knowing about. One lets you access the home menu whereas the other lets you reset the game you’re playing.

If you have a Wii Classic Controller, you can plug that right into the SNES Classic Edition. Then you only need to press the relevant button to return to the home menu.

As for one thing that doesn’t require any separate controllers, you can reset any of the games included on the SNES Classic Edition. Just hold the “L”, “R”, “select”, and “start” buttons for a second or two. That will easily let you reset the game.

The NES Classic Edition and Super NES Classic Edition are two different pieces of hardware, but they aren’t entirely separate. You might be interested to hear that both controllers can be used with either system. That means the SNES Classic controller works with the NES Classic (and vice versa).

One thing to keep in mind is that the NES controller lacks a number of buttons necessary for SNES games. You shouldn’t have any problems using the SNES controller with the NES Classic Edition, however.

For the original NES Classic Edition, Nyko created the Miniboss wireless controller. The company is returning with something similar for the Super NES Classic edition.

Around the launch of the Super NES Classic Edition, consumers will be able to purchase the Super Miniboss, a wireless controller for the system. It was designed to replicate the retro style and feel of the SNES while offering cord-free gameplay. A turbo button for fast inputs is also included, which also has home screen functionality by hitting that button along with select.
