Nintendo’s NES and SNES Classic consoles are no longer in production
Looks like after the current stock is out, it’ll be hard, or possibly nearly impossible, to get your hands the Nintendo NES Class or SNES Classic consoles. Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo America, told The Hollywood Reporter, that both consoles won’t be returning to store shelves once the current stock runs out. “We’ve said that the current systems are the extent of our classic program,” Fils-Aime said. “We’ve also been clear that, at least from an Americas perspective, these products are going to be available through the holiday season and once they sell out, they’re gone. And that’s it.”
The company wants to put its focus on bringing its retro games to Nintendo Switch Online. Right now, though, the focus seems to be on select NES titles but we’re still keeping our fingers crossed they change their minds about bringing games from the other classic consoles. Or perhaps even bring back these consoles in the future.
