My GF informs me that mine from nintendo.co.uk turned up about an hour ago.

 

[CrowdChant]

Brickseek shows 12 at my local Walmart. All other Walmart in areas are showing out of stock since they are 24 hr locations.

Ladies smoking outside said they don't have any and Walmart doesn't open till 7. But they also said they don't work in electronics.

Think I'm just going to wait it out vs trying to chase down something. Everything else is not open until 10.

They had 6 nes classics last year.

Does anyone know how accurate brickseek usually is?
Or if some Walmart did not get shipments?

Usually pretty accurate, especially when I was trying to track down a NES Classic last year. For the SNES, the Wal-Mart I went to at midnight had the exact amount that Brickseek said: 26. They had them sitting on a table behind the Customer Service register and I counted them.

 

[Elandyll]

Welp...

Went to !y local Walmart last night at 11:30pm and got in a line of approximatively 40 people, whichhnI thought wasn't too bad.
Problem is, they received 33 units we were told.
Sure enough, ran out about 7 people ahead of me.

Now, I'll just try on e more thing before I say F it..

Target at 8am... Or Best Buy and getting in line early for 10am? Sigh

 

[Necro900]

Got mine!

It's TOO DAMN TINY AND CUTE. Now off to nostalgia-land

I hadn't realized before, because the bulk of footage that I've seen was captured from an American SNES Classic... but the UI of the PAL version mimics the PAL console's grey design, while the NTSC one has two big purple buttons at the bottom of the screen.

Spoiler

Europe keeps winning!

My first of three orders arrived in the UK (from Nintendo). The other two (Game and ShopTo) are coming later.

Ordered so many as I was paranoid about not getting one but I'll just keep one, gift one to my dad for Xmas and sell the last to a friend.

 

[XaosWolf]

UK here with my GAME order. Just got this email:

Bishal will deliver your Game parcel
TODAY
29th September 2017
between
13:47 - 14:47

Hurry the fuck up, Bishal !!!

Lol "Buz" is delivering my Tesco order between 10.30-11.30. Not long now.

Aw, my guy is just called Stuart. And he isn't due here until 15:20-16:20.
I also have Royal Mail and Parcelforce delivering a few more here so little do they know but its a race. (Unless Amazon Logistics is delivering one of them and then its 4 different couriers and higher stakes)

Spoiler

Each of these is claimed by friends and family members =P

I hope there is enough stock for her to be stuck with those

 

[ScaryShark]

In line with people talking about how much they are going to try and sell these for. I hate them.

 

[Docpan]

I live in NYC and wont be able to sneak out to try and grab one until lunch time at best. What's my brst bet? Nintendo store?

 

[esmith08734]

24 hour Walmart was a no-go. Going to try Target.

 

[Morgoth]

I'm sitting here at my local target. Been here since 3. Only one other person. The store is getting 86

There's a good chance she will end up like the image above this time around. C'mon Nintendo, manufacture the shit out of these snes minis

Nobody in our line are willing to say that they are flipping them. Most people talking about their childhoods and how much they loved the system.

Steal their wallets and/or phones. Failing that: hurt their feelings.

Best Buy is handing out tickets at 7am I believe.

Sounds pleasant. It died off but definitely irked me. Apparently they hit Walmart first.

It's LeAnn Ver-sayce?? I've got to buy a SNES Classic from her. We'll go to Spago afterwards and have chips and champagne.

 

[Zen Aku]

$400 lol. You can get it for like $150 on eBay if you're that desperate.

 

[jelmerjt]

LOL nice sticker. Not mine btw.

Can't wait to experience Earthbound for the first time.

6AM NJ line update: a ton of employees have shown up, but the line hovers around 15 people.

 

[clarknova156]

Question , supposedly Toys R Us is getting like 79 units per store (they didn't do preorders) and they open at 10. Should I go there now and see if there is a line or should I go around 9 and actually get some sleep? I live in a town of about 40,000 and there is only really two Toys R Us's within a 25 mile radius so.. ?

 

[Lkr]

Assuming everyone in this line is buying one I’m like 30th at a super target.

 

[nowheretorun]

It's USB powered. Just stick it into your tv.

Lol thanks! It's FRIDAY!

Two hours should get it done. I'd try and get there at 7:45 or so...

Just got to the Target closest to my office and there's about 15 people in line ahead of me. Struck out at the 24H Walmart on my way here.

Good luck today everyone.

 

[Blizzard]

I'm going to try to get to a Target by 7 a.m., wish me luck.

 

[ParityBit]

Well I had no luck. It was out at the Walmart 24 hour Walmart. Lets see if Reggie lied or not....

When are we looking at a possible restock?

 

[Fermbiz]

Trying to Get to Best Buy on Fordham Rd, Bronx NY... Was trying to leave early but I didn't hear my stupid alarm. Hopefully there's not much of a line when I get there....

Try Target, Best Buy, or even GameStop. Wal-mart appears to be the worst about stock. In my state the district had no shipment.

 

[B1gg_Randall]

What store?

Walmart in Charleston,SC. Someone getting in trouble for selling these earlier. Yikes!

Best buy givea out tickets at 7 am local time

Ugh, sorry I should have mentioned, I can not wait in line (work) so I was hoping to get there on my way by around 5AM. If it were a weekend I could have. Kinda like the pre-orders going up in the middle of the night, no way I could be up for those either.

 

[Ruze789]

Managed to get mine at my local Walmart that opens at 6am! Walked in at 6:05 and got one of the last 10, but I went to Electronics first looking for it and found out they were selling them at the service desk in the front.

Yeah, same luck at Walmart for me despite Brickseek showing 2 in stock.

Let me know how many people are there. I was thinking of heading to that one, but decided to go to the one in gateway center.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Best Buy in MD. About 15 people in line.

 

[dc89]

Mine has said delivering Saturday since the beginning. Hopefully a mistake.

Yea mine changed from Saturday to today as well. According to the tracking it should be delivered any minute now.

I hope we all get them soon <3
