Nintendo Super NES

Nintendo · 1991

The same machine as the Super Famicom in a different case: boxier and grey in America, closer to the Japanese design in Europe, with cartridge slots shaped to keep the regions apart. The library is among the strongest of any console ever. The plastic yellows badly, and unyellowed examples command a premium.
