If I happen to see it in stock @ MSRP, I will definitely get one. It's cute, but I don't feel like exerting any effort for a company to take my money.

stopped by a EB games with less traffic
they said pre-orders have all been allocated in local stores 2 hours after going live
wouldn't tell me how many per store but said there wasn't much to begin with

What's the difference from paying $300 now or $300 when it comes out? I don't really see a problem with it
How come when I read about the nes mini on the Internet most websites say it's impossible to get but there is lots of them on Craigslist for sale?

most stores don't limit transaction/account
scalper's delight
how Nintendo doesn't want to produce millions of these is beyond me
why make it $80 and basically limited run?
they can easily sell these for $150 and they will still be flying off the shelf

I feel like these retro consoles will be released in cycles with the N64 next. Then we'll see the NES 2.0 with a few more games and snes 2.0.

I don't know if this is total per store or total per lower mainland. All I know is that I was the 32nd person to place a pre-order and they said "we've only been open an hour and we sold half already."

Slight differences in the games, but more importantly, everything will be in Japanese within the game.

You can get the EU version preorder on amazon.it right now. About $200 CAD with a freight forwarding company. They will only ship to an Italian address.

https://www.amazon.it/Nintendo-Class.../dp/B073FNFTL2

Amazon is the only possible option for preorders now. The CSRs have no info. Walmart might release a few more since they just cancelled duplicate orders.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidth...on-pre-orders/

Last year when I lined up for NES on launch day (no pre orders last year). Eb games, Toyrs R US, Walmart, Best Buy in Victoria had about 20 each if I remember correctly.

Pre sale scalper edition units are already confirmed selling for $400 CAD. In case you guys haven't heard Quebec is not getting any so most residents will be buying at inflated prices.

The hype is real for this one! I will be lining up very early this year lol

I got a quote for 1200 in China (which is 226 can) as of right now and never thought I have to pay this much it

Not sure if it's going to change as it seem like the same price for base ps4 (which is only a few hundred bucks more in China)

Source.ca tried to open pre-orders at 9AM, today.

Non-stop hammering from everyone who wants one, and now the site has been down for more then 5.5 hours.
