Nintendo has revealed details for the SNES Classic. The standalone mini console will feature 21 games, including Super Mario World, Earthbound, Super Mario Kart, and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. But the most surprising inclusion is Star Fox 2, the unreleased sequel to the original Star Fox for SNES.

The Super NES Classic Edition will launch on September 29th for $79.99. Like its predecessor the NES Classic, it will allow players to easily play retro games on high-definition televisions, thanks to an HDMI connection.

The full list of games included on the SNES Classic follows:

Contra III: The Alien Wars
Donkey Kong Country
EarthBound
Final Fantasy III
F-ZERO
Kirby Super Star
Kirby’s Dream Course
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Mega Man X
Secret of Mana
Star Fox
Star Fox 2
Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting
Super Castlevania IV
Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Super Punch-Out!!
Yoshi’s Island

The Super NES Classic is Nintendo’s follow-up to the NES Classic, which launched in fall 2016. The console was notoriously difficult to find due to limited stock, and was discontinued earlier this year.

Bummed they didn't include Chrono Trigger.
 
This actually looks awesome. The collection is nearly perfect apart from the omission of Chrono Trigger, but at least they got Secret of Mana, Earthbound(!!!!) and FF3 in there. I wasn't keen on the NES Classic but this is another story. Some of these games are masterpieces. And unreleased Star Fox 2! The SNES was such an amazing console....
 
Yoshi’s Island is probably one of the best platformers of all time.
 
Pre-orders all sold out in the UK within hours of the announcement. I hope they make more of these than they did of the mini NES.

But yeah, I NEED one of these.
