Good, hope it will receive the same hacks. Would love to put some ROMs of all the other SNES games I own but are missing from the device.

Already have the NES Classic. My SNES Classic is being shipped right to me at the moment.
I think its common sense that Nintendo would use the same hardware platform for both the NES and SNES Classic, modern hardware, even low-end mobile hardware is far ahead of either archaic platform.
The hardware should even be able to emulate Nintendo 64 games, so that gives me some hope for next year.
One thing that annoys me with the SNES classic is Yoshi's Island. The emulation on a few areas of that game is shit... And Nintendo could have made StarFox 2 30fps.
Hopefully the modding community blasts the SNES classic wide open so we can add some games that *should* have been on the console like Donkey Kong Country 2, 3, Mario All Stars.

Pretty sure it's already been hacked actually, given that its the same hardware as the already hacked NES Mini.
And yeah, missing DKC2, one of the best games on the system, is a terrible omission.

Software stack could be different though.

Someone seems to have dumped the kernel of the snes mini already, so the software seems to be largely compatible with the hacking tool they use for NES mini.
Interestingly a NES mini kernel would not run on the SNES mini system, but a SNES mini kernel does run on a NES mini, meaning that if you have a NES mini and couldn't get a SNES mini (or don't want to double dip or something) you could potentially turn it into a a SNES mini and back.

That's good to know.
I'll certainly be loading in more SNES games though to fix up some important omissions from Nintendo.
And I hope Yoshi's graphics bugs can get fixed some how via a hack.

No virtual console for Switch yet, so they can make a killing on old hardware? Jeez. Not even I can defend Nintendo for this one.

Those glitches were probably intentional seazure prevention. They did the same thing with megaman and some others with the NES mini.
You might be able to fix it by dumping a diffrent Yoshi ROM, not sure about that though.
