Stop trying to spread sanity. Some Nintendo fans are allergic to things that make sense. With all this shortage stuff, though, people have completely overlooked the fact that there is no way this thing is worth $60 when it really should be $40 now and maybe $20 after Christmas. That's when I'll be picking mine up, because it is a fun looking little toy.

Why are those things at odds?
I understand Nintendo have tried to create demand here but it just seems a little silly at this point.
Thats why I was surprised to to time to check out twice.
I am sure people are going to hate this but... Part of peoples rage is their own doing. No one needs a NES classic. They will be out in the wild soon enough. Probably before Christmas even. Also its not like this is the first time anyone can play these games.
Still blame the scalpers. Get a real job.
Oh for fucks sake knock it off.
Nintendo is shitty at forecasting demand, and conservative about production run sizes, but they aren't trying to take demand. They'd be making WAY more money if they had more stock. When supply catches up after xmas a lot of potential customers will have said fuck it.
Scalpers hit certain toys around the holidays every year. This happens with everything Nintendo does and is fucking stupid.
No reason they couldn't stock a $60 nostalgia box meant for the holidays. It's intentional or tone deaf.

Nice score! I figured I was lucky to get the one and didn't bother trying again.
Well to be fair, this seems like a nice Christmas gift, so I can understand the urge to lock it down because getting one after Christmas won't do them any good. For personal use, ya I'm right there with you, but I'm in the hunt for Christmas gifts personally.
We are still a week away from black friday and people are going mad for this. The fact people are paying for scapler prices now, knowing that more are on the way is just silly. Why not wait and test your luck. Prices are not going to get higher. Actually as supply has been coming in the prices have been dropping even on ebay.
Eh, if it isn't really easy to get one around Black Friday I can see people freaking out and the prices getting even higher on eBay for the Christmas rush.

it wont. This is the company that thought it would be a good idea to release a limited edition handheld on Black Friday. So maybe they ARE just that frickin stupid....
Why does Wal-Mart show in stock for $240 ? What the fuck? I'm in a live chat to find out why, if it is really in stock, and if I can price match. I'm guessing the answer is going to be "No, no, no."
Sold & Shipped by ProElectronics Distributing Inc.
Third party seller, not Wal-Mart. It even says:

anyone want to teach me python for tomorrows run??
These disgusting scalpers trying to take advantage of people when the eyes are on the Walmart site. I don't understand why places like Walmart and Amazon are letting scalpers list their stuff. They really should make a rule against that.
Heh, wen't over to local Target (downtown Silicon Valley) and since launch they only received one unit for sale. No one knows when there will be more.
I'm having problems with my NES Classic and my A/V receiver. The console works when plugged directly into the TV, but when connected to an input on the receiver using the same HDMI cable, the TV gets no signal (and I hear no sound out of the speakers, either). The receiver is a mid-level Denon. Any ideas?
Your receiver might not support the version of HDMI NES is trying to use.
Although, I'd be surprised if it needs anything above HDMI 1.1
I had the same thing with PS4 and my receiver, just had to go direct to TV.
I'm so dumb. My monitor at work doesn't have speakers on it so there isn't any sound. Damn it. I went and got a monitor with HDMI on it for nothing. D:
Are you using a front or rear HDMI port? If front, try rear. If rear doesn't work either, dunno. Lots of other people have posted about front not working.I'm having problems with my NES Classic and my A/V receiver.

They work so hard to hide the existence of third-party sellers because they make so much off the back end, and you want them to start policing the big meanies who make the price bigger?
It takes roughly 3 months to create more production lines of just about any piece of electronics.I refuse to believe a multi million dollar company doesnt have at least a few moderately intelligent people that would easily see the demand for something like this and proceed to instruct to make more.
Seriously, no company is this stupid.
Yeah, and it's a waste if it's not going to be an ongoing line with that same capacity.It takes roughly 3 months to create more production lines of just about any piece of electronics.
I was able to get a controller off Wal-Mart's website today. I had it saved in the cart from my previous failed attempts. I just hammered on the Checkout button at 4:59pm EST until it finally went to the checkout process.
My delivery dates is estimated to be Wednesday November 23rd. Has anyone had theirs ship yet from previous days? Are the estimated dates accurate? I paid for the next shipping cost to get it a little earlier so I hope I didn't pay more for a date that isn't accurate.
Reposting from the Canadian deals thread, because this is the right place for it!
Finally got all my orders in.

My wife got through the Walmart selling today, but it's been sitting at processing since it went up. Guessing that's going to get canceled. Oh well.
