SNES Classic Hacking Has Made The Console Able To Play More Games

An SNES Classic hacking incident has made the world aware that you can put more games on the system if you have the right tech and the know-how.

The SNES Classic is one of the more notable recent releases in the world of video gaming, and despite it having 30 different games available on it from launch, some people aren’t satisfied with it. An SNES Classic hacking has been perpetrated to allow the console to play more games.

There’s also the fact that in order to get those new games on your SNES Classic you’ll have to obtain illegal ROMs for each game you want to put on, meaning you’ll also be putting yourself at risk.

So, while we don’t necessarily recommend that you do some SNES Classic hacking of your own, if you don’t think 30 games are enough you can try and do it on your own time, if you’re fortunate enough to have a
