I heard Targets are getting at least 20 and close to 50.

62 now at Target in n Brunswick nj

 

[krisrock90]

Does anyone know if Union Square one is out?

Union is such a hotspot that I wouldn't think so. Doesn't help that it's 24hrs. The Elmhurst one still has tickets.

 

[Celcius]

Standing in line at my local target in the rain.

 

[DigitalDevil]

Walked into a Walmart and got one about 6:30 this morning, got one no problem. I've been to two more after and struck out.

What's the general consensus on picking one up at GameStop today?

 

[DogDude]

Are the big retailers having them up online today or not even bothering

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Got my ticket, the Best Buy employer wanted us to wait around for 3 hours at first. After pointing out the ticket says it's good for 3 hours he said as long as we are back before 11, it's will be valid still.

 

[Inferno313]

Number 28 at my Target (Riverview, FL), got here at 6. Lines pretty long now, but I think everyone here got a ticket.

 

[The Right Deal]

University?

Sorry, meant suburban ave! Still not a huge line if they have as many as they say.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Local Walmart that opened at 7am had 14, and there were only four or five people when I arrived at 6:47. Working overnights paid off for once.

 

[tombo85]

My paypal payment apparently went through but the site said error. No email from thinkgeek tho. Hmmmm.

Same here

 

[J@hranimo]

Target guy came out and was like

"one per guest, we got 60 so all 20+ of you guys will get one."

AYEEEEE

 

[Elandyll]

Welp, in line now at Best Buy near WhiteMarsh MD just north of Baltimore with about 16 in front of me.
Sigh.

Still thinking its stupid to waste 2h of my life doing this, but when/if I get one in a few days it'll be something to laugh about.

I wonder what the South Brunswick line looks like.

 

[ZeoVGM]

Got a ticket at Best Buy this morning without issue. :O

Maybe I will have a chance, but it wont be until around 4PM that I get to a Target.

 

[RoninChaos]

The brickseek for target around my house is all UNKNOWN. No idea why it has not been updating, so I cant really monitor it.

Same here. Not sure if it's even worth the trip.

 

[DonutTurtle]

Number 12 at Toys R US. More people are starting to show up.

 

[GreenMonkey]

Manager at Target @ Ann Arbor,MI took us in and let us check out early. Very nice.

About 15 of us for 40-41 units.

Nintendo stocking better this time.

Manager said we could come back and buy later in the day also if they still have them.

 

[Infernostew]

#52 out of 160 at Target in Fairfield, NJ.

 

[MazeHaze]

Man I wish I could line up for one, but I work 6 to 230

Good luck everyone.

 

[Lkr]

Got 17 at Best Buy then drove over to target and I’m 63. Got a ticket at both

 

[paragonpro]

Just got a ticket! 3rd in line at target

Where can we find projected store totals? I think something leaked earlier correct?

 

[Cjdamon042]

My one from Amazon UK has just been delivered to my office! Now to wait for one of the runners to bring it round

 

[Schucky Ducky]

Got one for me at Walmart last night. And just now got a ticket from Best Buy for my coworker. Now to go back to bed until they open.

 

[outunderthestars]

Just got a ticket! 3rd in line at target

Same here. 3rd in my line as well. Everyone is excited.

 

[J_ToSaveTheDay]

Getting off of my shift at 7am Mountain. Gonna grab breakfast on the way home and then line up at one of two Targets in town, one of which is literally across the street from where I live. Not sure what to expect in terms of lines, I really only ever got a strong sense of what demand was like for Nintendo products in my hometown -- where it was obviously very competitive and cutthroat. Amiibo seem tough in this town, Switch isn't too hard to come by anymore (still sells out, but seems more over the course of a couple of days rather than within hours)... Didn't try for NES Classic last year, but SNES is obviously much better stocked.

Guess I'll find out. Won't be eating my breakfast at Target, so I'll probably be showing up 20-30 minutes before open. If the line's less than or around 20 people, I'll try my luck.

 

[SpotAnime]

Well initial numbers were right. My store got 78 units in. I'm #2.

 

[RoninChaos]

Looks like Nintendo is actually producing units. And/or people who got burned last time aren't even bothering to show up.

 

[ryan299]

No tickets at my target. They got 70 something. I'm around 30 in line

 

[zaryn]

In line at the Sanford, FL Target, just got ticket number 28, and they have plenty of tickets left. I failed to snag one at Walmart last night, so I’m glad I won’t have to stop by Best Buy or Toys R Us, too.

 

[DerekNYC]

I’m #151 at the Target line at Atlantic Terminal in Brooklyn, about 20ish people behind me before they sold out.

 

[RedZaraki]

Checked at 3 stores around 6:30 this morning.

Wal-Mart was out of units, Best Buy and Target had lines 30 people long.


I have to work. This is ridiculous. I'm not waiting in fucking line to get this thing.

 

[Havik]

Ordered from 2 different websites and recieved both today. Thought about selling one but checking online they are selling for around 100-110 euros atm so I think ill just give it away as a birthday present to someone.

I mean...where have you been?

 

[radcliff]

Got to target around 7am. There were about 20 people in line at that point. Line is about double that now. Manager just came out and said there is enough for everyone in line!

 

[Dreamcast2]

Target in City Point, Brooklyn seems to have had 33. Line was definitely longer than that.

 

[andylsun]

Got ticket 40/52 target Nashua NH

 

[ahoyhoy]

Left BB and went to Target. Rather than 0 information we got hot chocolate and tickets.

Target > BB

 

[Taco_Human]

Tried a Walmart that opens at 6am, got there right before opening and there were well over 40 people in line. Apparently they handed out tickets, so my friend and her little sister went to a different Walmart about 15 min away. No one goes there and there was one guy in line and it opened at 7 am. I was 2nd in line. Aww yeah.


I don't like my friend's tv though, its got serious input lag.

Grab one for me, I'm right around the corner from you

 

[SpideySenses]

I'm annoyed at Amazon UK, my order has always been scheduled for tomorrow but it began preparing for dispatch at the same time as people receiving it today, it's now been stuck in that state for over 24 hours whilst others had it sent last night. We're all receiving next day delivery, it doesn't cost any more money in delivery, they're just sitting on my order at this point.

 

[C-Drive]

My local small town Walmart opens at 6am - I walked in at 7am and got mine easy. Felt like Christmas morning.

 

[ktroopa]

this thing is just beautiful to hold, so cute and sexy lol. i fired up Super Mario World first and yes its perfect. did i well up with tears of 90's nostalgia when I hit that power switch. you bet your arse i did!

this will be christmas number 1 seller. fact.

 

[RedZaraki]

I mean...where have you been?

You seem rather smug about Nintendo STILL not delivering on stock.

 

[krisrock90]

Congrats to all who gets them and those who are unable to today gets them soon!

 

[ChanDangle]

Target in Tampa on Dale Mabry has 60+ and about 40 people in line. Tickets until 8:30 and first come first serve after that.

 

[thoseAREmySHOES]

About 9th in line at Target in Crystal, MN. One hour to go...

There will be no stock left by Christmas, just like the NES classic lol.

I am just saying this isn’t a new thing.
