I would guess Christmas gifts and general remorse. I think the novelty quickly wears off and then you're left with the post-coital clarity that you just spent $60 or $80 bucks on a one-time fix on something that reminded you of that lost love from childhood but isn't what you actually needed to be happy.
I don't know about calling the Super Nintendo Classic superior. Because of the size of the ROMs vs onboard memory you can't fit the entire collection on the Super Nintendo Classic. However on the NES Classic you can most certainly fit the entire Nintendo NES collection.

I'd say it has more to do with how overbought and overproduced these things were. There was serious mania when they originally came out. People were hoarding them and trying to flip. I'm sure some of these aspiring resellers just returned the ones they couldn't turn around within their 30 day return period and all that stock just went right back to Nintendo.
