SNES Classic: A Link to the Past




Nostalgia at its finest!  The SNES Classic has some of our favorite Nintendo Classics built into one little console including: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.  It you have small children and you want them to experience a similar gaming experience as you did as a children, this is a good way to go.  I bought this for my little nephew and I to play together, and he loves it.  We play Zelda and Donkey Kong Country.  The first game he picked and started up was: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.  I was so proud.

The biggest downside to this little console is although it has a great game collection, it lacks some of the gems many fans were hoping for like Donkey Kong Country 2, Donkey Kong Country 3, Super Mario Bros 2, and Super Mario Bros 3 to name a few.  I am hoping for, expected, a 2nd edition to eventually be released filling in other great game titles.  Alternatively these great titles are available to download and the E-Shop.  Overall I give the SNES Classic a 7.5 out of 10 rating.  It is fun, nostalgic, but the game collection could be a little bigger.
