Its controller added X and Y face buttons plus L and R shoulder buttons, which fighters like Street Fighter II Turbo and racers like Super Mario Kart put to good use. Mode 7 scaling and rotation gave F-Zero and Pilotwings their sense of speed and depth, and some cartridges carried extra chips, like the Super FX in Star Fox, to push the hardware further.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo models, one cartridge format\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNintendo made the original boxy console from 1991 and a smaller redesign, often called the SNES Jr., in 1997. Both play the same North American Super Nintendo cartridges and use the same two controller ports. The multi-out AV port on the back takes the same AV cable used by the Nintendo 64 and GameCube, which makes hookup easy if you already own one of those. The original model also has an RF output for older TVs. Every model needs a Super Nintendo AC adapter and a video cable to run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuying a pre-owned Super Nintendo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany original Super Nintendo consoles have yellowed over the years, mostly on the top shell, because of the plastic Nintendo used at the time. That color shift is cosmetic and has no effect on how games play. Look for a slot that holds cartridges firmly and power and reset switches that move freely. Controllers, the AC adapter and AV cables vary by unit and are included only if the title lists them. Every order ships free within the U.S. and comes with 30-day returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:details --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-facts\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHardware\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuper Nintendo Entertainment System console\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuper Nintendo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHome console\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlays\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNorth American Super Nintendo cartridges\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuper Nintendo AC adapter, an AV or RF cable to a TV and a SNES controller\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eController ports\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRelease\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1991\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaker\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNintendo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-faq\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this item\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWill Japanese Super Famicom or European games work in this console?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a North American console built for US Super Nintendo cartridges.
