SNES Classic Preorder Shitshow Discussion (Please Read Rules in OP)

I won't even be able to get to Gamestop for another 4 hours or so. No way pre-orders last that long. Love that I've wasted hours for nothing. Got "Cart Jacked" from Walmart and Target within seconds of them going up. This just really leaves a bad taste in my mouth for Nintendo. Really don't like supporting them when they've been making Consoles longer than Sony and MS, yet they're the farthest behind in both Internet Infrastructure and manufacturing hardware. How???
Nope, still out of stock since it sold out earlier.

Was able to Pre-order on Amazon last night via the alternate url. Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled.
Not as of yet.

Got one at B&M Gamestop. Had to wait around for their system to come back up. My store only had 12. Met some cool people while waiting in line, though.
Oh, sorry. I got a notification from nowinstock.

Yes, for four seconds (seriously) at 1 PM.
Nope... At least the image posted doesn't show it's a bundle... (79.99 preorder)

I'm not surprised.
Got one from GameStop!!
Arrived at GameStop at 2pm. They had 10, when I got there they had 4 left. Three people came in while I was pre ordering and got theirs. 5 more came after that and left empty handed. This is all in a 5 minute span. Their phone did not stop ringing the entire time.

Shit they couldn't sell otherwise.
GameStop: What are you gonna do, NOT order the bundle? That's what I THOUGHT. *pose*

I was able to get one at a Gamestop near me, they only had 10 allotted to their store according to the manager I talk with when I go there. I was the 5th in line to get one reserved lol. Had a fun time though, all the people there were all talking about their favorite SNES game, cheering when one of us got a preorder in. Good times and really made me smile to joke about games with some random strangers in there. Good luck to those still looking for one. If you have a Gamestop in a remote area go now. Don't wait.

Anything to do w/ Gamestop right now is slow. App sign-in, site, you name it.

Gamestop App? As in a app for a smart device?

Successfully preordered the third SNES at my local Gamestop. I was, however, annoyed by the fact that the cashier, overwhelmed by the experience, allowed an older woman in front of me to order two (on separate Gamestop accounts). Still, got mine!
ahahahha fuck off Gamestop
