Just got a cancellation email from Walmart.

 

[Arc07]

I got the email saying my preorder date was changed from 10/6 to 9/27, then 5 minutes later I got the cancellation email. Way to tease Walmart.

[IAmtheFMan]

Just got the cancel e-mail from Wal-Mart. Paid for it with a credit card, so nothing unusual with payment options.

me too.

Thank you for your interest in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System – Classic Edition. As you are aware, this is a highly sought after console that will launch later this fall.

Unfortunately, due to a technical glitch, the Super Nintendo Classic Edition was mistakenly made available last Friday evening ahead of the official release date. We, regrettably, will have to cancel this item on your order. We know that this is incredibly disappointing to you, and we’re truly sorry for this mistake.

In regards to the cancellation of this item, if you paid by credit card, your card has not been charged. Any authorization holds placed on your account will automatically expire in accordance with the card issuer's policy. If you paid through PayPal or with a gift card, your payment will be refunded when the order is cancelled.

The official launch date for this item is 9/29, please check the product page on Walmart.com prior to that date for any updates.

I do hope you’ll give us another chance to earn back your business.

Warm regards,

Looks they are all gonna get cancelled

 

[xillyriax]

[suplex]

Cancelation email here too.

 

[shiftplusone]

Yep, no cancellation out of the blue, at least it's something official but still sucks

 

[sixteen-bit]

The struggle continues.

 

[Chesskid1]

mine cancelled too, ordered within minutes of it being put up.

 

[Mashing]

The dream is dead. My order has been cancelled. I should be receiving two separate e-mails as I made two separate orders. At least I still have my Amazon UK and Amazon DE orders still in the pipeline.

 

[Overtech]

Mine just got canceled, too.

 

[NeededSleep]

Preorder was canceled by walmart

 

[Lionheart1827]

Just got a cancellation.

The dream is dead

 

[ElMexiMerican]

Looks like the mass cancellations begin, just got mine saying that there was a technical error allowing us to preorder.

 

[thetruth1983]

Free salt for everyone.

 

[valinthyne]

Well I guess at least it's fair and we all got the cancellation I guess?

yup just got mine :/

oh well guess my coworker won't be getting one from me now.

 

[Alfredo]

I also just received the cancellation email.

Disappointed that they don't even offer any credit for the inconvenience. Oh wellllll. Probably won't ever be able to get one now ((

 

[jacobeid]

Also canceled. Well, they got me to create an account with them. I will now happily continue my tradition of never shopping at wal mart for anything.

 

[cwistofu]

Got canceled.

I got in early too. Oh well, glad I've got my UK preorder at least

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Spoke too soon. Such bullshit.


Kind of reads like there will be no preorders, given their emphasis on the release date.

 

[LiquidAngel]

Same cancellation message. Sounds like everyone's got cancelled this time, billing "error" or not?

 

[Poppy]

FUCK

 

[FinKL]

Literally a minute after Wario, cancelled

The way this is worded, it actually sounds as if they don't expect to do pre-orders at all. Let's hope this isn't the case.

 

[Deadpool_X]

Damn...i just got canceled too...

 

[Ridley327]

Yeah, it looks like they dropped the hammer on every order at this point. Considering how cordial the email reads, there's no doubt that every order is going to get cancelled.

 

[moltonasty]

I guess all orders are getting cancelled, just got my email as well. womp womp..

 

[Mashing]

They should give us a gift card for the inconvenience. Amazon does that if they fuck up,

 

[Velcro Fly]

rip the dream

also a hearty fuck you to NoA

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

wow

 

[Armoured Priest]

Walmart preorder was cancelled. :'(

 

[R-User!]

Game Over.

 

[mjc]

Mass cancellations, there it is. Got mine too.

 

[Thabass]

Yep. Cancelled email here too.

So, I'm not going to put most of the blame on Walmart here. They screwed up on their end, sure, but I'm pointing a big fucking finger at Nintendo.

Just put the fucking thing up for pre-orders everywhere. This is bullshit.

 

[//ARCANUM]

 

[polyh3dron]

 

[Chesskid1]

last time there was an error, i remember getting a $10 or was it a $5 GC. walmart getting cheaper!

 

[ironjoe989]

Thank god I didn't cancel my snes mini from amazon.uk. What a bunch of punks.

If they cared about customer service, they'd find a way to keep the preorder. Oh well.

 

[Boke1879]

While this sucks. I still place the blame on Nintendo.

 

[Stinkles]

I have an email alert on Amazon, but I did that last time too and NEVER got a mail. So... this time Amazon. get it together.

 

[oneida]

They should give us a gift card for the inconvenience. Amazon does that if they fuck up,

if we don't know what happened we don't know Walmart fucked up.

 

[Dartastic]

FUCK YOU WALMART I ONLY ORDERED ONE AND FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ARKJGGKAADGSK

 

[ATF487]

The dream is dead. From Walmart via my inbox:

Sucks this is coming 5 days after they put it up.

No email for me yet, and my order still says processing but I assume this will change.

 

[Sillution]

I got an email saying its cancelled but on the website it still shows my order as processing still ;P

 

[Mr. Hyde]

I received it too. So did my friend.

 

[BronsonLee]

NO
WALMART DON'T CANCEL MY 85 SNES CLASSICS
I NEED TO FEED MY FAMILY

 

[LiK]

Everyone got canceled. GG RIP

 

[jacobeid]

Is there a way to delete your wal mart account? It's just another email address waiting to be exposed from a hack. I don't shop at wal mart and made an account specifically for this.
