Old Cartridges Never Die: Epilogue SN Operator Preorder Launching Soon
Epilogue SN Operator preorders open Dec 30th for $59.99. Play and archive your original SNES and Super Famicom cartridges on PC, Mac, and Steam Deck.
Your childhood memories are getting a modern upgrade. After more than a year of anticipation since its design reveal, Epilogue is finally ready to launch the SN Operator. It's a bridge between the analog 16-bit era and today's high-tech gaming setups.
Epilogue SN Operator Preorder Details and Features
According to reports from The Verge, the SN Operator preorders will officially open at 12 PM ET on December 30th. Priced at $59.99, it's $10 more than the original GB Operator, but it brings support for a massive library of Super Nintendo and Super Famicom games.
The device acts as a standalone USB cartridge slot, allowing you to play and archive your original carts on PCs, Macs, and the Steam Deck. This isn't just about playing; it's about preservation. Users can back up their physical save files and even detect counterfeit cartridges, ensuring the integrity of their collections.
Legacy of the Operator Series
The GB Operator debuted in early 2021 to critical acclaim from the retro community. By expanding to the SNES platform, Epilogue is addressing a larger market of enthusiasts who want to keep their physical media relevant in a world of digital subscriptions.
