SNES Classic To Have Rewind Feature

snes classic.JPG

Now you can play with power, super power... and back again!

Another announcement from Nintendo at Gamescom today was the Rewind feature in the upcoming SNES Classic Edition. It lets players rewind their gameplay to retry tricky sections, pick up missed items or simply run through an area again to see if anything was missed.

However, the rewind time depends on the kind of game: Players can go back a few minutes in role-playing games such as Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, while action titles such as Super Mario World offer around 40 seconds, ideal for re-trying short segments of gameplay.

The system also comes with additional features like frames that can be wrapped around the on-screen display for each game and suspend points that allows you to save anytime, anywhere!


The enthusiasm level is so 1990's!


The SNES Classic Edition hits stores this September 29th.

Even though I'm not a big fan of them, GameStop said they'd have a special announcement later today and that employees should watch for it. I'd presume that means in store SNES classic pre orders. If it is then can someone pm me? I have a lab class at college I've gotta be in when they'll probably announce it. The GameStop method might be the best chance at grabbing one in the us.

Maybe it's part of those 100 NES Classics they'll be giving away for Power/Pro members?

I only want Star Fox 2 to be dumped.
The Starfox 2 ROMs dumped years ago weren't full games?
they are marked as "beta" in the goodSnes rom set, but I never played it long enough to know if it was a full game or not.

Anyway, nice to see features like save state and rewind on the official product :)
well, save state already existed on VC titles, but rewind is new!
That's funny they are using different rewind amount based on the played game.

Like said many time, too bad it's already sold out.

Dylan Cuthbert, an ex-Rare employee stated no full version of the ROM exists outside of Nintendo's jurisdiction; the ROM here will be the complete version. All public ROMs were all 99% or something.

I know there are a lot of negative comments here, but like... Nintendo are actually putting some effort into making this something really nice. It's a hell of a lot more than they did for the NES Mini, and I hope this trend continues onwards to the N64 Mini.

It is nice, but at the end of the day it's just a emulation box.

Aye, and they could have sold it on the same footing as the NES Mini, as a pure and simple emulation box with nothing special. I suppose I shouldn't be happy that Nintendo is just doing what they should have been from the start, but y'know, we can all hope they'll just keep moving forwards.

(also didn't mother 3 have an unreleased n64 version? pls uncle nintendo)

Yep, an unreleased n64 beta. We can only hope it gets released during our lifetimes.

Walmarts pre order sale was a joke. It wasn't even up for 30 seconds before it sold out.

Then Amazon supposedly sold out, same with Best Buy. What a bunch of bullshit, I signed up for their notification system, didn't work. I mean, yes, I have on from Amazon UK preordered, and I know people say they get their products to the US just fine, but still. I know that I can still get one from the UK if I ask around here. Ugh, Best Buy idiots.

Nintendo will have some explaining to do about Québec
and they better have a SNES Classic for the Québec market because right now
its illegal for sale because there's two games in English
i doubt nintedo care, they will sell out if they have them in Quebec or not, hopefully more stock for everyone else :wink:
No, I'll keep it as a placeholder, should I fail to obtain one in at a US location :P
well if you get one and don't mind giving the UK one to a good home for RRP.....let me know :)(I will see if I can find a US pre-order to trade :rofl2:)
