This article shows you how to Save Games on SNES Classic Edition. You’ll need ROM (read-only memory) files of your own SNES games. If you’ve gotten your hands on the hard-to-get SNES Classic Edition, you’re probably curious about how the new save system works when you choose to stop the game.
With Suspend Points, you can save any game at any time and from anywhere, not just at a specific save point or by using the save screens in Super Nintendo games. Suspend points on SNES Classic are a lot like saved states on an emulator, so if you’ve used those before, this should be pretty easy to understand. With the SNES Classic Edition, Nintendo takes fans back to the 1990s.
It has 21 of the best Super Nintendo games, including Star Fox 2, which has never been released before. Some of these games are long and hard, so you might not have time to finish them all in one sitting. Nintendo lets you save your work, so you don’t have to start over from the beginning when you want to play again.

- While in a game, slide the Reset switch up on the console to create a temporary suspend point in the HOME Menu (indicated by the flapping wings).
- Press Down on the D-pad to move the temporary suspend point to a save slot in the Suspend Point List, then press the Y Button to save it.
- A saved suspend point is indicated by a blue or a yellow circle in the Game List.

What is SNES Classic Edition?
Nintendo made the Super NES Classic Edition, which is a home video game system that acts like a Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The console is a follow-up to the NES Classic Edition. It comes with twenty-one Super NES games already installed, including the first legal release of Star Fox 2. It came out on September 29, 2017, in North America and Europe.
The machine is sold in three different versions, each of which looks like the original systems that came out in Japan, North America, and Europe. The North American version looks like the grey-and-purple Super NES, which has straight edges and is purple, but the Japanese and PAL versions look like the Super Famicom/PAL Super NES, which had rounded edges when it was first launched.

Yes, is the short and sweet answer. There are a lot of save features on the Super Nintendo Classic, and games that have them will save your game just like the original disks did. You can also use a “save state” on the SNES Classic, even if the games don’t have a way to save.
