Toys r us.... god help us

gamestops tweet says preorder instore

I'm there. Says it's not available to preorder. Waiting to see if it updates.

 

[Calamari41]

So, like

Do contract manufacturers just outright refuse to work with Nintendo?

Or does Nintendo just not care?

 

[tier1dc]

Keep trying Target. I'm at the checkout phase again.

and it'll say out of stock when you process the order

 

[Merchandise]

Sue me for being okay with Nintendo producing five of these. Makes mine more rare *shrug*

 

[jmizzal]

gamestops tweet says preorder instore

going there now

 

[DaBargainHunta]

The real bloodbath will be when those weird-ass "GameTrust" "digital" Amazon preorders get cancelled - or worse, never fulfilled without anyone being notified. I'm super-skeptical. Overseas workers "confirming" its legitimacy is something I can't believe anyone is actually putting any stock in. I'd love to be wrong.

 

[ShadowKingpin]

FUCKING TARGET ERRORED OUT MY CART.

 

[Aaron D.]

Had it in my Target basket.

Wouldn't process the order.

Sold Out.

You SUCK Nintendo.

 

[Clockwork]

Why don't the retailer systems deduct stock based on when it is added to the cart vs when the sale goes through? If someone doesn't complete the checkout process then remove it at that time and add back to inventory (or after a set period of time).

This cart jacking business is completely unnecessary.

Nintendo just not care

 

[Common Knowledge]

Of course Target had to do that stupid shit, "Please enter your CC info so we know it's you" even though I had just pre-entered everything before this.

 

[YankeeDonB]

Yuck, Target let me get all the way to the end of the order and then errored it out. Let me resubmit a couple times but then started defaulting to out-of-stock.

 

[thetruth1983]

So that weird listing that was put up earlier on Amazon, was it ever confirmed that it was the real deal?

 

[Lyte Edge]

Had it in the cart at Walmart...sold out before I could do anything.

Got to the payment screen and tried to finalize the order at Target...gone. LOL.

I'll see if I can get one from Amazon Prime later on like I did the NES, I guess.

 

[rudger]

GameStop computers shut down when Amiibo came out. I couldn't even preorder Ness in person. Why would we expect them to be able to handle this?

 

[DoomGyver]

Nintendo: we're going to have plenty of Snes classic stock, instead of 50 NES classics at each store we're going to have 100 SNES classics for preorder at each store. That ought to fill demand!

 

[jacobeid]

Had it in my Target basket.

Wouldn't process the order.

Sold Out.

You SUCK Nintendo.

Same. I'm done. Just gonna use my retropie. Sorry Nintendo, I tried to give you money.

 

[BobTheFork]

Target won't charge until shipped right?

FUCK it took it out of my cart

 

[TheSuperSakura]

I want to cry right now. Had it in cart at walmart, and target and when I pressed submit order both failed me.

 

[Kaizer]

Sue me for being okay with Nintendo producing five of these. Makes mine more rare *shrug*

You're part of the problem lol

 

[br3wnor]

Lol I saved my info into my Target account and I still had to put it in. Didn't get one.

lol exactly what happened to me. Once I saw that I had to re-enter my CC info I knew it was over. Sure enough it glitched out by time I finished, oh well.

 

[Nydius]

Is it sad that I'm now more anxious than I was before the F5 lottery because Walmart has a track record of canceling orders/preorders after the fact?

 

[crimnos]

Getting all the way up to final submission and having it removed from the cart, now THAT is the Nintendo experience.

 

[Ellite25]

Cool now it got automatically taken out of my cart and I can’t add it back in. This is ridiculous.

 

[Afrocious]

Oh damn. GS preorders are in store.

Why would you even post this?

Do you know where you are? Read the fucking thread.

'hey guys i got mine im glad they're so rare haha get fucked kids'

 

[SummitAve]

Yep haven't been able to check out at target lame.

 

[BriGuy]

Fucking bots. There's no goddamn way normal human beings can order these. I'm just about done.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Got through to the final step at Target and it errored out. Fuck all of this.

 

[cordy]

I think I'm not gonna do the N64 one. This is too much crap.

 

[Pontiaction]

Had it in my cart at Walmart. Coworker tapped me on the shoulder and asked for help right when I was going to check out, so I missed the approximate 90 seconds of availability.

Had the product page loaded at Target. Added to cart and checked out immediately when I got Wario's tweet. Site errored out. Wasn't able to get one.

Wow, fuck this mess.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Yuck, Target let me get all the way to the end of the order and then errored it out. Let me resubmit a couple times but then started defaulting to out-of-stock.

Same it is fucking bullshit.

 

[burgerdog]

Toys r us.... god help us

I'm throwing in the towel. Good luck, guys.

 

[Sanjuro]

There is another one still in my Target basket. Fake empties for now.

 

[TheLastCandle]

Just preordered one at my local gamestop! Wooooooo! Get your ass to an actual store asap!

 

[Mihalis0013]

I spammed refresh on Target. Saw it was up. Added to cart. Did checkout as fast as I could. Wasn't fast enough.

I text my wife that I didn't check out fast enough and I couldn't get one and she replies...

"Ya well I did!!!"

 

[PowerThroughLov]

so amazon is going to have preorders available in ~10 min? even though they had some in the middle of the night already?

Why don't the retailer systems deduct stock based on when it is added to the cart vs when the sale goes through? If someone doesn't complete the checkout process then remove it at that time and add back to inventory (or after a set period of time).

This cart jacking business is completely unnecessary.

More load on the server. Ping when added to card -> database query -> Ping when bought -> confirm database

vs: Ping when bought -> remove database.

 

[Kadin]

Oh damn. GS preorders are in store.

Meaning you have to physically drive to a store to preorder?

 

[Doogdogg]

OUT OF STOCK

Fuck you Nintendo

 

[LostMyNarbles]

So fucking sick of Nintendo's shit. This is so stressful just to order one god damn item.

 

[Cels]

gamestop pre-ordering is in-store apparently

no online for them?

https://twitter.com/GameStop/status/900043899208687617

 

[WonkyPanda]

I don’t understand how hard it is to implement a captcha system for checkout on items like these.

 

[Glass Shark]

.

 

[darthbob]

Oh damn. GS preorders are in store.

dammit, im at work and can't go.

Target and Walmart both screwed me

 

[Trevelyan]

GameStop being smart about this. Heading there now.

 

[chaosblade]

Is there a company that hates their customers more than Nintendo?

After my first preorder got canceled I don't even want this thing anymore.

 

[Thabass]

Wow I got screwed twice. Walmart and Target. Fuck Nintendo for this fucking goddamn bullshit garbage.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

Just preordered one at my local gamestop! Wooooooo! Get your ass to an actual store asap!

Oh boy I can get to a gamestop in... 5 hours!

Cuz im at work.

 

[Merchandise]

GameStop store says their system is down so they can't do anything right now lol
