my amazon uk order says it will ship tomorrow. /shrugs

 

[Spacebar]

Wal-Mart has like two guys shipping these things out one at at time. Amazon forgot all about the SNES classics because they're too busy showing off echos. Meanwhile, Best Buy has these things shipping out faster than getting food at the Chic-Fil-A drive through.

 

[Pontiaction]

My Target order status page used to say "arrives by September 29", then it changed to "between 9/29 and 10/10", and now it says "arrives by Tue, Oct. 10".

Guess they're not in any hurry, sheesh.

 

[mrchad]

For what it's worth, I had an ambiguous shipping status with my Amazon BOTW preorder up until my shipping email, which was the day before release.

Edit: forgot to specify Amazon preorder

 

[Agent_Carnage]

Called my local Gamestop and they will be opening at 10AM. I am not sure how many they will be getting.

Yeah, mine says the same for target. Very odd. Been preparing to ship for days.

Yeah that's how Amazon usually works with most game preorders.

We're good I'm sure, it's just that this thing is so sought after everyone's on edge. My Yakuza 6 preorder for example says the unknown like the SNES Classic even though it's got a confirmed US date.

 

[OmegaDL50]

Canceled my UK orders.

I think I'll be fine just walking into a store and picking this up.

If you aren't entirely serious and didn't cancel. I would buy one.

Besides I like the design / color scheme of the European and Japan version of the SNES / SFC

Yeah i said i think in the other thread that i don't even get the email till the day before and they never ship pre-orders or bill me till the day before. I don't expect to hear anything about my order till tomorrow if mine even ships since i got that email saying mine might come later because they sold more stock than they had which happens quite fucking often and irritating.

 

[BruceCLea]

I preordered my SNES Classic in a GameStop store and I checked the order and it says "Closed." Not charged my gift card or anything. What the fuck.

How do you check your order?

 

[BruceCLea]

How do you check your order?

I googled "check my order on GameStop" and I had the actual order number to enter

For the lazy.

 

[dysonEA]

Seems like everyone who ordered from Best Buy are getting shipment notifications. Yet my order is still in the preparation state since Saturday. Did Best Buy forget me?

I just got my Best Buy shipping notification an hour ago don’t lose heart!

 

[Sir Doom]

Cancelled my Amazon France. $116 total for SNES nope

 

[purpletentacle]

Amazon UK just shipped (to Canada)

No word yet on my second order from GAME

 

[thecouncil]

My 3 shipped from Best Buy. Notifications came with 2 hours between each one.

 

[OmegaDL50]

Question for you fine GAF folks.

How long does it usually take for overseas shipping via Prime. In this case Amazon France to US?

 

[jbueno]

Best Buy charged yesterday, order shipped today. All's good.

mine shipped earlier today, should be here on the 4th.

 

[Darknight]

Cancelled my Amazon France. $116 total for SNES nope

Im still not sure if there will be enough demand. I think the holidays are gonna make this thing fly off the shelf and be out of stock for a while.

 

[Chesskid1]

my fedex tracking from Target updated.. arriving Oct 6th

i think amazon uk orders (to US) will arrive faster

 

[Sir Doom]

Probably going to regret it later. But hopefully my JP order comes through

 

[Vooduu]

My UK order shipped.

 

[SheHateMe]

*checks account*
*sees charge for $90.63 from Amazon UK Retail*
*breathes sigh of initial relief*
*starts to play the second stage of The Waiting Game titled "Shipping Woes"*
*tenses up again*

*receives email from Amazon UK*
*"Your order of Classic Mini Super NES has been dispatched."*
*gets hyped for next week*
*sees the delivery date set for October 13th*
*dies at second stage boss and has to retry from the checkpoint*
*continues with extra nervousness to play The Waiting Game*

 

[ElMexiMerican]

Oh motherfucker, BB is using UPS Surepost. I hope I end up getting it Friday, but we'll see now.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Amazon US sure likes to take their time.

 

[SimpleCRIPPLE]

Got a call from Gamestop about my instore preorder. They were giving a heads up that they’ll only hold the console until midday Saturday instead of the full 48 hours like usual. So if you preordered from Gamestop, plan on picking it up Friday just to be safe and avoid waiting until Saturday if you can.

 

[leehom]

Cancelled my Amazon France. $116 total for SNES nope

Canceled my France order too. Hoping to purchase a UK one in the future for less.

 

[Geraldo_Ray]

*Sees Amazon UK charged my card, and shows "Preparing for Dispatch" under Order Summary*

No email yet though. Best Buy pickup is still on standby.

 

[allreal]

Amazon PREORDER UK order shipped. Thanks gaf, it was cuz of that initial thread that i got one. Hopefully i can get a US on friday.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

My Walmart order finally shipped.
Will be here on October 9th.
I don't want to wait on October 9th.

I'll check Friday if I can get one locally and, if I do, I'll see what to do with the Walmart one.

 

[Neonep]

Amazon UK sending confirmation emails.

 

[Merchandise]

My package arrived in my town but the scheduled day is still Friday. Might try calling tomorrow to see if I can pick it up...

 

[Killthee]

My amazon uk order shipped. Getting an Oct 13 delivery date, I’m in California and used Global Standard shipping.

 

[SecondVariety]

My Amazon UK preorder has shipped. It's crazy how early it became available, and the price (67.32 GBP with shipping) is surprisingly fair I think.

 

[GeorgioCostanzaX]

Anyone gotten an instore pickup update for bestbuy? I got two but my instore is going to,a fellow gaffer.

 

[March of the Crabs]

My local store is pretending I never pre ordered and I have a big test at 8AM Friday feels bad!

My friend has a UK one pre ordered at least that he can sell me but I was hoping for an NA one! I'm the weirdo that likes NA design better.

 

[AzureSkies]

Amazon UK order hasn't shipped yet (shipping today), but they've charged me for my order so I'm guessing it'll be soon.

 

[randomusername]

Getting my Best Buy order tomorrow! Can't wait

The NA design is better. At the very least the controller is and I'm not sure how anyone can possibly even debate that.

Mine just shows preordered, no charge, nothing yet.

 

[Maengun1]

my amazon status hasn't changed since I placed the order on the night the weirdo non-official listing went up. Stll reads simply:

Not yet shipped
Delivery estimate: We need a little more time to provide you with a good estimate. We'll notify you via e-mail as soon as we have an estimated delivery date.

Based on previous experience it definitely should have shipped by now were I to possibly receive it on Friday

[Persona7]

Oh motherfucker, BB is using UPS Surepost. I hope I end up getting it Friday, but we'll see now.

Amazon uses this often and I never get packages late. It really depends on how late UPS delivers to the post office. If it's after a certain time of day you gotta wait until the next delivery.

 

[Hopeford]

This is...odd. I canceled my amazon order like a while back, but I just got an email that it's getting shipped. Uhhhh.

[ShiftaDeband]

Walmart order shipped, but arrives on October 7. Jeez...

 

[Joey Ravn]

Amazon UK is now "preparing for dispatch". I was scheduled to be sent today, 09/28, so everything's A-OK for the time being.
