This compact SNES Jr. redesign shrinks the console and drops the RF option, leaving only composite and S-Video via its AV port. The cartridge slot is still a top-loader, and power consumption drops slightly to about 9W. Two controller ports and one expansion port mirror the original's layout. Below is the full connector layout.
Compact redesigned SNES released late in the console’s lifecycle as a budget option. Smaller form factor with top-loading cartridge slot but limited to composite video output only.

Notes & Compatibility
Cost-reduced SNES redesign. Composite video output only - S-Video and RGB signals present but disabled internally (can be restored via modification). No RF output port. No expansion port.
