It's another quiet week here at the Nintendo Voice Chat world headquarters. Nintendo did show off its new museum in a Direct, and it was as charming and interesting as you'd expect.

However, August 23, 1991 does mark the anniversary of the Super NES North American release, and there are always plenty of questions to answer.
