From its Japanese debut as the Super Famicom on November 21, 1990, Nintendo’s 16-bit masterpiece reshaped what players expected from home consoles. Across more than 620 richly illustrated pages, Super Nintendo Anthology chronicles the rise of the Kyoto giant’s iconic machine, capturing the moment it followed the NES’s industry-defining success and became a global symbol of power, creativity, and possibility—an essential reference for anyone fascinated by gaming history.
This volume focuses entirely on the console itself: its origin story, worldwide launches, and the full arc of its life cycle—right through to its swansong and beyond. It also opens the hood on the “secrets of the hardware,” breaking down specs, connectors, processors, graphical and audio strengths, sprite management, and enhancement chips like DSP. More than 60 pages explore accessories both official and unofficial—from Satellaview and Sufami Turbo to import adapters, homebrew tools, and the unreleased CD-ROM player—alongside interviews, developers’ perspectives, collectible treasures, and a tour of bundles and collectors’ editions released around the world.
