Just guessing here as I haven't had a chance to look at mine - is it games with saves and/or save states?

I think the 4 circles represent the save states if you have used any, the circle becomes filled in blue if you save a state. No idea what the cart icon means heh.
 
How did you do that?
Used the Amazon app to go to instant pickup under Programs in the menu and searched for it under there. It took awhile to actually get instant pickup to show up on the app though. You have to add the store address as one of your shipping addresses.
 
My Wal-Mart order from 8/25 has yet to ship, so not all of us are so lucky. Crazy that it hasn't moved an inch in the process for a month even on release date.
 
So I'm playing Super Mario World and on the level Vanilla Dome 4, bullet bills come out from the sides of the screen. I went down a pipe, came back up on the main stage and decided to back track, just in case there was a coin I missed. Well in the second half of the stage, 6 bullet bills come out instead of 2. Completely caught me off guard, especially because the pop in was instant and in the middle of the screen, not the actual sides. Obviously this is due to the limitations of the original hardware, but regardless I finally died.

I'm sitting here like "bullsh-" WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE
*hit the reset switch, rewind, jump over the bills*

Rewind is amazing.
 
Man I'm loving this so much. Shame I couldn't get a second one for a friend but this is probably my favorite gaming collectible as of now.
 
I think the 4 circles represent the save states if you have used any, the circle becomes filled in blue if you save a state. No idea what the cart icon means heh.

Cart icon seems to indicate that game is capable of maintaining an actual save file in addition to save states.
 
My Walmart order finally shipped, says it's arriving on the 5th. Kinda weird they don't send an email notification.

Walmart pre-order from 8/25 shipped and I have a tracking number.

Good luck to everyone!

8/22Walmart order shipped. 😂 Will be here Monday.

Sorry I double checked and it was an 8/25 order. I swear it was 8/22.
 
Reeeeeally?

I got two of these and tested them both today. They are really awful. I know they are only $24 or $29 bucks....but I don't think they are worth the money.

The DPad is poor (cannot trorw a fireball in SF2:T....hell I cannot even do a Sumo Headbutt).

The buttons seem to be constantly dropping input as well. I was sitting about 20 feet from the unit when I first tested it then moved substantially closer, within 4 feet. Same issues.

Any one else have these problems?
 
This increase in Walmart orders shipping should give me relief but it's just making me even more anxious.
 
Just beware, Walmart.com usually slaps these giant stickers on all of the items they ship out. Have a hair dryer handy on delivery.
 
Damn I have the best girlfriend, she snagged me one at Best Buy while I was at work. :)

Asked my ex wife to help me out, she told me to have one of my other bitches get it. Hold your girlfriend tenderly my dude.


Oh shit. 3am Gamestop order just shipped. Bye Walmart 8/25 order!!!!

Does Amazon truck hold the order for you? Really hoping I didn't have to show up right at 12

Til the truck rolls out at 8pm.
 
if anyone is interested i printed the manual from super mario world as a test.
just get your pdf here https://www.nintendo.co.jp/clvs/manuals/en_us/index.html
and use printer software to print as booklet no scaling!

this was my result i think it looks pretty cute.
i added the airpod case for size. i love how it's also mini. I still need to bind it somehow.
anyway here are some examples ! enjoy.

Treasure truck! Got mine, picked up one for a colleague and if my October 11th pre order stays true, then my desk neighbor gets that one.


Saga ended.
 
Ordered it from Amazon Canada this morning and it will be here this weekend with free shipping. They have really earned more of my business, as between the SNES Classic and the Xbox One X preorders, this has been painless.
 
Walked into Best Buy a few minutes after they were open. They were still giving tickets. Got mine, was #124. Picked it up a few hours ago.

Guess this counts as walking in and getting one easy on day one?
 
Wtf my walmart 8/22 order is still processing. Why are they shipping 8/25 orders but not mine?


Something isn't right with my 8/25 order either. Says shipped but still awaiting shipment from fed ex and no charge. Package not really shipped yet even though it says shipped and Its been almost 48 hrs. Also says anticipated ship date 9/28 and nothing still.
