The Super Famicom is a 16-bit video game console created by Nintendo. The console was released in Japan on November 21, 1990; and later in Taiwan and Hong Kong. The console would be rebranded for the West as the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) and was redesigned for the American regions but retained the Japanese design for PAL regions with added "PAL Version" branding. Hong Kong in particular saw official releases of both the Super Famicom and Super NES PAL Version.
The Super Famicom launched with two titles, those being Super Mario World and F-Zero.
The Super Famicom sold 17.17 million units in Japan and would be discontinued on September 25, 2003. The best selling game for the console was Super Mario Kart.
