The game is currently listed for a release on 31 December 2007, though that is almost surely a placeholder date, with the GameStop site pointing out that, "Official pricing and release dates have not been announced by the publisher. Price and release date listed are estimates only and subject to change." Pilotwings has made only two previous appearances - once on the SNES, and once as a Nintendo 64 launch title. Both versions reaped critical praise, though plummeted at retail like lead balloons.
Yes, it is much harder to start a retro collection in 2022 than it was in 2017, but it’s still possible! You’ll see there are still quite a few SNES games that are fun and affordable.
I really enjoyed Commando as a kid and it’s not listed . I bet it’s cheap maybe? Beat all 99 levels just to find out you start all over again .
Any retro console is still worth buying in 2022 whether a Genesis, NES, SMS, TG16. Some systems command a higher price then others but a SNES is still reasonably priced and worth grabbing you can mod the NA SNES to play Japanese games throw in an Everdrive and you're set. I feel sorry for some of the consoles I see on Ebay that have holes in them, yellowed to death, modified with shitty mods that barely work. The SNES might need a little work great way to learn if yellowed just use peroxide and UV light and it will turn white again. If you have a hobby of repairing older consoles that are listed as untested broken for parts some of the repairs are basic you can save money that way when buying a retro console. I just bought a $20 NES listed as broken on Ebay disable the lock out chip and new 72pin connector and it works.
Turning 64 this year.....my days playing video games are Now over.... time to move on to Jesus Christ .....I wish all of you Happy New Year . Game on Dudes!!!
It was fun while it lasted.

Factor5's cancelled PilotWings project for Wii looked amazing. Perhaps it could be revived for the new Nintendo Switch?
This and factor 5's other canceled project rogue leaders (finished but still canceled) would have been good to have on wii.
A lovely tribute to the SNES' launch titles for its 25th birthday.
Finally! I've been harping on how awesome a Pilotwings game on the Wii would be since launch. It should perform better at retail on the Wii than it did on SNES or N64 too.
This could be awesome.
One of my absolute fave games for n64 so this is grand news - Snes version was pretty cool too.
