Looks like US preorders for the SNES classic are going up. Our turn soon too probably

 

[The Elite]

I thought there would be some sort of announcement first. Damn.

 

[Mimosa97]

No itshappening.gif?

I'm disappointed

 

[Black Republican]

yes, bring the snes!

 

[The Elite]

So weird that I had a dream that someone bought an SNES classic overnight.

Then I wake up to find out preorders went live in the states.

Why can't I use this power for good?

I'm disappointed

I'm more disappointed we don't have a Amazon.ca site to spam yet

 

[The Elite]

I wonder if they will make us wait until Friday. They seem to do that sometimes with Nintendo stuff in Canada.

Nah, it's happening today.

 

[arts&crafts]

Can we preorder electronics from the states? Or do they not ship to Canada.

Some sites you can. I've ordered from Gamestop before. But sometimes those same sites don't let you ship certain items to Canada either

Depends on the retailer. Amazon us, Gamestop* and B&H ship to Canada, but BestBuy US does not.

*careful for expensive suprise custom fees

 

[BY2K]

Previews for the thing are incoming.

Pre-Orders should start today, it means.

Alright thanks, I will keep my eye on the US thread as well, maybe I will get lucky.

The official Nintendo SNES Classic site now says "Pre-order now from these retailers:"

[DeathByBacklog]

Have we got links for the Canadian retailers yet?

I don't see landing pages at all for the SNES classic anywhere.

Yeah. I just searched...

Amazon
Best Buy
EB Games
Walmart
The Source
Toys R Us

Nothing.

I kinda want to play an official Star Fox 2 but I don't really want a SNES Mini... Hmmmm, hopefully it gets a Switch / 3DS release after these are sold out in a couple of months.

Don't get too excited though - nothing there yet.

[Sealtest]

Remember Amazon likes to keep these thing prime only

Oh boy, can't wait for it to be Prime-exclusive.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

Still have Prime. I'm ok with this.

 

[mohsinkhan]

Do we have an idea when the preorders will be live for Canada?

Rumour is EB at 1pm EST. No idea for anyone else.

Oh fuck. Today is going to be so unproductive.

Where's the crew gathering? How do I set up discord alerts?

Anyone call or visit an EB Games store yet?

I don't think they know much at the moment. According to the chat on discord.

 

[Savitar]

It would be nice to know for certain if it was going up today, or if this was another case of any time in the future but hey good luck. Didn't the NES Classic pretty much do that up here?

 

[Black Republican]

leave the house (or your PC) and lose your spot online! muahahahaaha

Nintendo Canada says available now for preorder. Amazon put up a product page but they haven't gone live yet.

Guess I'm F5-ing all day at work today

News for people who live in Quebec, apparently due to the law 101 (the one for French packaging and/or content) Nintendo won't be able to sell the Mini-Snes Classic here. As for the rest of Canada, it shouldn't be much of a problem.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Can we have a consolidated list of retailers?

Also, what's the official Nintendo.com page for Canada for SNES Classic? I want to see the list of retailers participating...

Source? That would mean avoid best buy I guess.

Why would this affect the SNES Classic but not the NES Classic?

Also, EBGames won't care, IIRC.

Would need a source on this. Nintendo products never have that problem.
