I got lucky last Friday and walked into a Best Buy around 6 pm looking for a new monitor and found one in the console cage in the middle of the game section. Made my day!!!
My local Wal-Mart has 5 of these stacked up. That they haven't sold
Great review! I've already seen a lot of reviews of this console but I knew that yours would make me learning something new, as always. Thanks for taking the time to measure the input lag, which I find quite important. It is often overlooked in reviews and too much lag can really ruin the fun of replaying old classics.
I just got mine and it is badass
Nicely done session. It is now November 2018 and these and the 8-bit units are available at Target...I purchased one as a Christmas gift. Thanks!
Input lag depends on your tv and y9ur setup. I noticed very apparent lag on my dad's television. I took it home to my house and no lag at all on my tv. Extremely responsive and zero lag.
Noticing it and measuring are very different things. In most cases the lag is far greater than the original console due to modern televisions and emulation on the console. I've been surprised that even when I don't perceive any lag to see the results when I run my tests on the game.
Lon, have you tried testing the input lag on a CRT television? I too, do not notice the lag, which I suppose is a great thing, despite any measuring results.
I wish I'll be able to get one before the end of this year...
Great insight on how sitting on the floor playing SNES games replicates that experience of early 90's gaming.
Anyone know if the super Mario world game itself is like the exact same thing?
Best console in the world. Everything 8 bit, 16 bit, and N64 games, play on it. I love mine. Such a blast to play with and play on. I've been able to play games I never had a chance to play because of the Hackchi Dev's, and this console. The only thing I wish it had, is Wi-Fi capabilities. A browser/streaming abilities. That would be an all-in-one console.
Zero interest in the Nintendo retro gaming topic but still watched beginning to end ! Informative and entertaining as usual. I was more of an Atari, Asteroids, Tank Plus guy myself
Do you have the link to “hack” the ness to add more games?

Can you review the Insignia Flex 11.6" Windows tablet plz? It's at Best Buy. 1080p screen, atom x5 processor, 5 mp and 2 mp cameras and a detachable keyboard all for $200. I cant find any real good reviews.
Nice video Lon! and I love this piece of hardware. the lag you mentioned isn't noticeable. My only real complaint is that its 21 games instead of 30. I would have loved mario all stars, pilot wings, among other games to have been included. once again, nice video. I also made a SNES mini review recently. if anyone wants to check it out then please enter my channel and let me know what you think. take care Lon!
It is a shame the cart slot isn't functional given they could have released future carts with more games collections.
Novel idea! That would have been really snazzy...
Thanks for testing the input lag. Did you do it on pixel perfect mode or the other modes? If you do 4:3 Or crt filter you get some input lag. I compared unofficially on street fighter 2 on the snes mini versus the retropie 3 and I could hit my combos much better on the snes mini vs the rpie3. So I think there's a little less lag on the mini.
I secured the Classic NES thanks to a connection; can't get a hold of one of these though. Lon, what's your feeling on this forthcoming Commodore 64 Mini (THEC64 Mini)?
Nice review and good insight. I'm not the target for this for a number of reasons, despite loving the old games. I'm not the type who gets much extra out of the authenticity of the experience. To me, it is just about the game and not the ritual around it, not that I have a problem with anyone who does enjoy that. But the idea of sitting on the floor and looking up at the TV sounds like a bad time for a number of my joints, especially my back and neck. I like some modern conveniences, though I prefer wired controllers.
ravagingwolverine indeed
I was lucky get hold of one yes day. I find its cute its so small I still have original snes
Finally got one. I wish it had the Mario drummer sticker that much of the original consoles had. 😂
Great review as always! The Super NT looks like it's going to be absolutely amazing and for $190, it's going to be less than what some people charge for one of these.
Great review! I enjoyed it very much!
Keep in mind that most games on the SNES inherently already have about 2 frames of lag, so the emulation is adding an additional 3 frames over a SNES + CRT setup.
Beautiful and very nicely reviewed 👍🏻
The best thing about nintendo's mini consoles is the inspiration it gave to raspberry pi case makers.

Very nice review. Excellent.
Wii controls are the Best for the mini nes/snes
It will also work with Wii Classic/Pro Controller
See to me the controllers dont feel that close to the original controllers. Theres something off that I can't quite put my finger on it. The plastic feels cheaper maybe.
The controllers for the snes classic also work on the nes classic...
Wii controls too
Nice video! Thanks for the upload.
It doesn't have enough lag to hurt. It is a bit different, but I have no problem.
Nostalgia in simplest terms. That and the fact that Nintendo refuses to meet the level of demand because they don't want to risk having unsold product left sitting on the shelf. They've done it for years to artificially inflate demand.
I hate that these are impossible to buy still, short of scalpers.
Wasn't tough to get one at launch, everywhere had stock.
I just bought one the other day. They are not impossible to find. Scalpers just make it a little harder.
Shan Santee it looks great, has good official controllers and is easy to use but more importantly it takes 5 mins to hack and put on another systems and ROMs. I think it's great value for money.
Didn't they open up the AnalogNT Mini to allow it to run more than just NES games via the SD card slot? IIRC they had Sega Genesis even running flawlessly.
Yes I covered it in my review! ruclips.net/video/_y5XJugZRks/видео.html -- but the FPGA in the NT Mini is not large enough to simulate the Genesis. Hope runs high that the SuperNT should be able to handle it.
No wireless pads, no expansion. Just the looks and software are nice.
Have you reviewed any 3-in-1 clone consoles?
Gamester81 has some awesome reviews of clone consoles.
While looking for new clone consoles this update is up for pre-order
innexinc.com/retrobit-super-retro-trio-plus
The European version is cuter :)
Only for the people who lived outside of North America.
@@MVC2fan1 as a european I like the North America and Eu version
"Tens of dozens" ...hundreds, otherwise?
the US versions of these consoles are so ugly!! haha
But it's not that ugly.
Nah.the purple buttons are for me good like the red blue green and yellow buttons in the European version
Scan lines are crap. Show me the pixels!
Raspbeery Pi Retro Pi.
Hipsters that like to over pay is 100% why. Modded og xbox for the win all day.
Raspberry Pi 3 with Retropie basically makes this product a complete waste of money. I have SNES, PS1, N64, and Dreamcast with all the games I want. Many other console emulators on it as well.
Not really and not everyone wants to deal or have the skills to build one...the SNES it is very hackable and you could add hundreds of games not just Nintendo.
All you need to do is find a video on how to build a retro pi. If you can't follow the easy instructions, don't ever use a knife.
From other reviews, it sounds like the input lag on the Canoe emulator in the SNES Classic is much less than the lag on Retropie, but I haven't seen a head-to-head comparison yet.
Would love to see comparison of Pi3 vs Snes mini input latencies (??? Vs 80ms)
Nintendo's brilliant marketing team at work! they ran out of ideas and they can't innovate anymore and come up with anything NEW so they come up with THIS.... and brainwashed everybody. I heard the HORSE AND BUGGY is coming back in 2018!
