Yeah tried Argos all that happens is it just has a loading circle and nothing happens after that which I assume means sold out there as well. Unfortunately I would say a load of these people are only in on it to make a profit for themselves not for the actual fun of owning the snes classic which for me was my favourite console growing up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I *did something really naughty that I will not mention here* and played a bunch of these games on my laptop last night. I had really good fun with Mario Kart, winning the Mushroom Cup, then jumped to FFIII to hear Kefka's cackle, then over to Kirby where I spat apples at a tree, then finally on to Zelda which I actually never played, but it reminded me a lot of Link's Awakening on the Gameboy, but better. It was a few hours well spent...and convinced me that I absolutely do not need one of these, so I won't be caving in and ordering one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly amazing. I assume you mean the dark world ? I always used to set my name as 'you clearing in the woods' so the villagers and others would say 'oh hello you clearing in the woods' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted June 30, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted June 30, 2017 LTTP is still behind the absolute pinnacle of gaming that is OoT, but it's a superb game. SNES classic would be almost worth it just for that if you've never played it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To play it with the original controllers on a tv in HD. I know you can technically do that with an emulator, but it's too many components and a hassle. $80 for the whole integrated experience? Worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the "almost" in my post. I have a SNES emulator on my phone and can play it through my TV with a Chromecast and a PS4 controller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
