@bombatomba: That is a odd training program.

I had heard rumors that this was coming but glad to see it's announced:

I like that it suggests to keep a fire extinguisher nearby while operating.  

I don't get it; if people are willing to pay big bucks to play pirated software on a cart, why not just get an EverDrive and be done with it?  Same price, but without the risk of fire damage.

it's not pirated, they partnered with capcom to do it. the fire warning is just them covering themselves because they think old technology is unpredictable and they can't be responsible for something that old. there's nothing about their game that's any more of a fire hazard than any other snes game.

Ah, I see now.  Thank you for the clarification.

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Due to incredible demand for the upcoming Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition system, Nintendo plans to ship the retro-inspired product into 2018. Originally, shipments were announced to cease at the end of this calendar year.

In addition, more units of Super NES Classic Edition will ship on its Sept. 29 launch day in the U.S. than were shipped of NES Classic Edition all last year, with subsequent shipments arriving in stores regularly. Fans have shown their unbridled enthusiasm for these Classic Edition systems, so Nintendo is working to put many more of them on store shelves.

The Super NES Classic Edition system features 21 legendary Super NES games such as Super Mario World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and Super Metroid. Launching on Sept. 29 at a suggested retail price of only $79.99, Super NES Classic Edition plugs directly into the TV using the provided HDMI cable, and comes with two wired controllers. For more information about Super NES Classic Edition, visit http://www.nintendo.com/super-nes-classic.

Next summer, Nintendo will also bring back the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition system with new shipments. More information about the timing of the return of NES Classic Edition will be announced in the future.

I like that Nintendo seems committed to push the SNES Classic for more than a month, but I can't help but agree with techwizard.  Hopefully hackers won't crack the system until everyone has one.
