Support NeoGAF

Thinkgeek orders should ship soon. They told me the charge shortly before shipping, but then again, they said they wouldn't charge + ship till next week.

I highly recommend Thinkgeek preorder people to check their local store Friday morning and return their Thinkgeek bundle if they find a SNES Classic. That way you still get one but don't support their practices. Everyone wins!

Anybody know if there'll be any controller extension cables available for those of us setting this up in the living room?

You've repeated the same thing at least three times so far. We get it.

Ironically, weren't you the one who first said you're fine with paying more for the bundles because it beats waiting in line?

Local Target finally updated and is listing 89 in stock.

Feels good mang. Can't imagine that many people lining up at opening.

Does Target limit to one per customer for launches?

What dcpi are you using? no targets near me have any stock listed.

Sadly Amazon.co.uk canceled my preorder without any explanation this morning.

 

[Harbinger of War]

are you sure they can ship to US? because i have a preorder with a US address....

Did you get one in months ago when pre-orders started? They might've added the restriction without canceling any grandfathered orders. But yeah, I tried adding to my cart earlier today and it wouldn't allow me to checkout.

US Best Buy order shipped.
Now I just need my JP one and my life will be complete.

They showed stock for maybe an hour and then it disappeared. It looked like maybe a glitch where they weren't supposed to show stock yet. Maybe they were adding the data then hid it. I wouldn't worry too much though. There are 4 stores in my area and not a one of them had less than 30.

Cmon BB/Walmart, you know you want to ship it...

Zmart in Chile restocked out of nowhere this afternoon and this time I managed to get my preorder.

It lasted for around 30 minutes before it sold out again.

Where do you live?

Maybe I'm overestimating SNES popularity but I envision that many being lined up before the sun rises.

is there a place to see all stock there or just need to go to each store?

Well, if there's not a strict limit the first few people in line could just grab them all :/

Aren't those all for the NES rather than the SNES?
There's a comment there saying they're the same but looking at the consoles the connectors on the front don't look remotely similar?

They're the same.

They're the same.

that pic makes me feel like it's a few more steps away from transforming into this

Has anybody got an update on those Amazon UK orders from months ago? I haven't received anything on that, I live in the US.

Mine is showing to be dispatched on the 28th.

 

[Ashhong]

Man..my Best Buy order is shipping to my ex girlfriends house who just broke up with me over the weekend. Gonna be rough getting that one back.

 

[Gartooth]

Walmart sucks, looks like I won't be playing mine until next week.

 

[ThePunisher]

For those wondering, you can check stock for Target at brickseek. DCPI is 207-29-7001. Just put that in with your zip code and it will check all the targets around you.

This also works for Walmart, but you have to use the sku, which is 741-65-9089.

 

[Earthbound64]

Cmon BB/Walmart, you know you want to ship it...

Yeah, come on Best Buy and Wal-Mart, let's go...

there's no usb ports unless the port for charge, that hori one uses the wii ports in the front with the included adapter.

 

[moai]

So has anyone hacked this thing like the mini nes?

yeah, i noticed they werent USB, the hori pic of the adapter looked like an USB so got confused

 

[Merchandise]

Yeah, come on Best Buy and Wal-Mart, let's go...

Yep, still waiting for BB. Hoping because I'm in the city they don't need a long delivery time

I should probably post the OT since retailers are releasing them early I guess.

Great to finally have this level back. It's worth the $80 alone for me.

Um that looks wrong! That’s not how it was on a real SNES! The whole background/foreground didn’t disappear like that whenever you touched a fuzzy! Wtf? Nintendo fucking up emulation once again...

I looked up the UPC on Brickseek. It was showing 0 for me until today when it finally updated. Most of the others aren't.

Where do you live?

Near Baltimore. It's a suburban area so hopefully it won't be too too crowded and it being a weekday should keep the kids away.

 

[The Llama]

Despite my two preorders I'm still tempted to go to a Target on Friday morning to make sure I get one... It's only 3 blocks from work...

Tracking on my Best Buy order updated, it says it'll be delivered Wednesday.

 

[outunderthestars]

Sadly it looks like I will be spending 3 hours or so in line Friday morning. Oh well. I'll bring my Vita and get some gaming time in as I wait.

 

[Uncle Obscure]

Has anyone with a Walmart preorder gotten anything more than a "Preparing Order" notification? This is maddening...

Mine's still preparing but they charged my credit card on Saturday. I'm cautiously optimistic it'll ship tomorrow or Wednesday based on nothing in particular.

 

[phantasmic_glaive]

Mine is for pick up but still says processing... normal?

 

[Klocker]

awesome ... thanks all above for the stock links.

will hope to get lucky

 

[tootie923]

Mine will ship on Sept 28th, to arrive Oct 5-10th.

 

[Uncle Obscure]

Nothing about Walmart is ever normal. ;-)

Mine has been "processing" since August 25th, but sometime over the weekend it changed to "preparing order." They still haven't charged my card, so, who knows?

 

[NeOak]

man, that "OT"

smh

 

[Fjordson]

Best Buy order is still "preparing". Getting nervous.

 

[bronk]

Best Buy near me showed 330 and Target near me showed 47. Best Buy it is.

 

[Nelo Ice]

Well guess I'm for sure going to cancel one of my preorders since stock is looking good. Preordered 2 just in case but whichever one of Amazon or Best Buy ships first gets my money lol.
