Imagine this. Nintendo release a new, shiny white SNES for a reasonable price. OK - it may be dead in comparison to today's consoles but the SNES has a very special place in my gaming heart. Yes, I have one of those...somewhere. Sure - you've got the Virtual Console but it just isn't the same. The re-made SNES I dream of would have these existing and new features:

  • Play all SNES titles from hardware; no emulation required - identical to the original console
  • Cartridge slot for local region (adapter for other regions) - play your original cartridges and save on them
  • Wireless controller that feels and controls like the original controller
  • Ports for other Nintendo controllers, should the player want to use those (including SNES / Wii Classic Controller)
  • Connect to your television using composite or component cables
  • USB and memory stick slots for saving progress, downloaded titles and other content
  • Online store consisting of titles from publishers who want to put their library of titles up
  • Profiles that can sync online - game progress, play history can be stored remotely
  • Frequent firmware updates - new features, more possibilities

That's all the features I can think of right now. Yes, this is all fake, so don't go jumping on me and hurting me badly. Things I would like to be kept simple but new features, providing they are relevant would make this something good to buy. A console that would be reasonably priced - maybe at the cost of a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 game for this hardware. Why would you buy it, though? For me, it would be something I can easily find, something that would last a lot longer than the original console, something that just plain out looks sweet. With a few additional features, this surely has to be win?
