SNES Mini

I guess 2018 will be the perfect year to buy both NES mini and SNES mini.

There's a Famitsu interview regarding the Super Famicom (Japanese version of SNES) Classic in which developers were asked on what games they wanted to include in the SF Classic. The options are interesting (taken from this thread at NeoGAF because I can't find other sources of information):

Arc System Works:
Daisuke Ishiwatari: Otogirisou (sound novel)
Toshimichi Mori: Xardian

Capcom:
Shintaro Kojima: Umihara Kawase
Hiroyuki Kobayashi: International Superstar Soccer
Ryouzo Tsujimoto: Earthbound
Kaname Fujioka: Earthbound

Atlus:
Katsura Hashino: R-Type III
Kazuyuki Yamai: Actraiser

Koei Tecmo
Kenichi Ogasawara: Tactics Ogre
Keisuke Kikuchi: Mystery Dungeon 2
Tomokazu Takeda: Torneko's Mystery Dungeon
Yosuke Hayashi: Actraiser

Square Enix
Ryutaro Ichimura: Front Mission
Yoshinori Matase: Sim City
Yosuke Saito: Wonder Project J
Naoki Yoshida: Tactics Ogre

Spike Chunsoft
Kotaro Uchikoshi: Banshee's Last Cry (Kamaitachi no Yoru)
Kazutaka Kodaka: Romancing Saga 2/Marvel Super Heroes in War of the Gems/SOS
Yoshinori Terasawa: He can't pick and lists a dozen, follow the rules!

Sega
Yosuke Okunari: Otogirisou
Toshihiro Nagoshi: Pilotwings
Mizuki Hosoyamada: Super Puyo Puyo

Bandai Namco:
Youzou Sakagami: Sim City
Yusuke Tomizawa: Cybernator
Katsuhiro Harada: Super Momotaro Dentetsu II

Platinum Games:
Atsushi Inaba: Chrono Trigger
Hideki Kamiya: Cybernator

Marvelous:
Kenichiro Takaki: Actraiser
Yoshifumi Hashimoto: Space Megaforce

One per company:
Hiroshi Matsuyama (CyberConnect2): Chrono Trigger
Masahiro Sakurai (Sora): Gradius III
Masataka Matsuura (Furyuu): Bounty Sword
Tsunekazu Ishihara (The Pokemon Company): Sound Fantasy (Unreleased game)
Chiyomura Shikura (Mages): Pilotwings
Akihiro Hino (Level 5): Another World

Some interesting choices here. Personally, I am surprised to see Super Puyo Puyo made it to the list because it's not the most popular variant of Puyo Puyo (the award goes to Puyo Puyo Tsu, which for SNES is indeed a great version). However, Another World is another surprising pick only because it's a Western release that should already have various versions of that game available. Sound Fantasy is a great addition mainly for the fact that it's unreleased from the creator of Electroplankton.

If you think Earthbound is an odd choice, remember that the Super Famicom Classic doesn't come with that game, whereas the SNES Class does have it.

Thank you for reading.
