After assuming that Nintendo would give up on the mini plug and play consoles concept after quickly discontinuing the NES Mini, we have an announcement of a Super NES Mini called the Super Nintendo Classic Edition. My argument against the release of this system was the belief that with the Nintendo Switch being the success that it is, that it was no longer necessary to continue the Mini line, which might be distracting. I was clearly wrong.<\/p>\n<p>The SNES Mini certainly features an interesting game line-up and physically looks fantastic, but it&#8217;s a shame that they&#8217;re still sticking with wired controllers. At least there&#8217;s two controllers this time.
