It has testpads on PCB, so there is hope for FEL and UART.
Nintendo most likely flashes NAND using standard and known Allwinner's
ways, I would be surprised to see if there is something unusual.

Is there some code around for R16 support?

There is some.
R16 is nearly an A33.

But NES Mini have no external interfaces except game controllers.
The only hackable interface found is re-solder a NAND ;-)

Or maybe it's possible to access the serial console.
