Mucho congrats. I'll be picking mine up after work (no worry about lines; I got a pre-order in during the Best Buy window). Enjoy that kickass new toy. :D

Wow, so Nintendo was really true to their word this time! I'm at Walmart in Orlando, and they just got a shipment of SNES Classic in. I was like, "Wow you guys actually have those?" as I watched them unpack at the site to store area. "Yeah, you want one?" "No thanks, I got one Friday." Never thought I'd see the day!

Still haven't gotten my american release yet, but my EU console just made it through customs and is in UPS' hands now. Part of me is considering just opening and using my EU version. I like the look of it so much more. Originally, I was thinking about getting 1 from all 3 regions to keep boxed and on the shelf. Not sure what I'm going to do now

Hakchi2's been updated to support the SNES Classic.
* SNES Classic Mini support.
* Automatic ROM conversion to special SNES Classic Mini's format. ~75% of games are working fine. You can use RetroArch mod for problem games.
* For expert users: you can select SNES game and press Ctrl+Alt+E to show hidden Preset ID editor.
* Individual profiles for different consoles, so you can use the same hakchi2 for both NES, SNES, Famicom and Super Famicom. You can select console type using "Settings menu".
* 7-Zip compression support for all platforms and emulators. You can compress or decompress any game using only one checkbox.
* Group operations. Now you can select multiple games in the main window, right click on them and do mass compression or mass cover downloading only for selected games. Hold control to select individual games.
* For expert users: NAND dump, NAND-B dump and memboot features. Don't use it if you don't known what is it.
* Some bugfixes and refactoring.
