You miss by 1.... lol

Where are the wii controller ports? All I see are the snes style ports in the images.

Yeah, I was wondering this. Are they doing wii ports again, and the pictures are all mockups, or are they just using straight snes pads?

I just don't understand these limited runs on popular items.


I don't understand limited runs of ANYTHING that sells out in seconds.


EXPLAIN IT TO ME.

 

[partime]

Super Mario World
Super Metroid
Contra III
Super Castlevania IV
F-ZERO
Street Fighter II
Super Ghouls n' Ghosts
Super Mario Kart


I LOVE too many of them! Most excited about Castlevania or Contra

Initial preorder wave on Media Markt and Saturn has closed, but that was to be expected. It should go back up a few days before release again. Preorders in stores may still be available.

Was it? Again, last year you could get it for several weeks there.

Nintendo logic.

 

[DataGhost]

pretty bummed that this is not let me play my snes cartridges

oh well

Don't think they did it for the NES classic and they probably won't do it here. Probably why it's pretty cheap all things considered

Seconded. Whatever thread we move to should be highly noted regarding his tooth

needs to be the only thing in the op

This feels like waiting for a bomb to drop.

Cool, thanks!

 

[mothball]

What different games does the Super Famicom Classic have?

SFC replaces Mother 2, Super Castlevania, Super Punch Out and Kirby's Dream Course with The Legend of the Mystical Ninja (Ganbare Goemon), Super Soccer, Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem and Panel de Pon.

 

[Mr. Diaz]

I've been checking for this thing for what seems like a week.

NOA, get it together.

Nintendo hates you

Honestly, they don't give a shit if they could sell more of these. The idea is that they raise brand awareness, and that the existence of the product somehow will make people want to buy a Switch and other Nintendo products.

Which would all be fine and dandy if
1) People weren't just getting fed up and walking out with a "fuck you Nintendo"

and more importantly

2) If people could actually fucking buy Nintendo's other products.

 

[ShadowKingpin]

OP, when is that photo of Tom Cruise's tooth going up on your post? This is imperative!

 

[Shiggy]

The Mydealz.de scalpers hadn't gone wild for it at that time though

Yeah probably but seems like would be nice. Im maybe to niche of a audience lol

 

[Blam]

I'll make a new thread if it's really needed.

 

[Spade]

Can't wait to see if US preorders go up before then next 200 pages (in the new OT)

 

[Relix]

100 pages. You guys really want this.

 

[DataGhost]

200 pages

 

[Kadin]

You could use anything that plugs into a Wiimote since it's the same input. So you could also use a Wii Classic controller or those Gamecube esque controllers Hori made for the Wii U if you prefer over the SNES controller

Well that makes it even better. I love my Classic Pro.

The hype is unstoppable, lol

 

[snake fish]

Fuck my lunch break is over good luck US GAF on Amazon/Best buy/Walmart pre-orders.

 

[Algebrah]

100 pages of everyone pressing F5

Edit: Excuse me, 200 pages!

 

[Netherscourge]

Welcome to 200!

We've spared no expense!

Because it works. Nintendo gets articles and people stay in a frenzy at 3 am refreshing pages.

Has absolutely nothing to do with copyright.

on a side note, Amazon Global Priority is kinda fast (expensive though) if they meet the ETA

Demand for this is going to be WAYYYYY higher than NES classic. I don't care what anybody says.

If they aren't quadrupling production then the shortages will be much, much worse.

 

[Hastati]

nintendo like crack again

 

[Naked Snake]

Media Markt and Saturn are already sold out in Germany, You could pre-order the NES Classic for weeks there. Wtf. -.-

Everyone learned a lesson from the NES Classic and nobody wants to repeat the mistake of not pre-ordering this ASAP.

 

[Kadin]

This past day has been some great fun waiting and hoping. Securing a preorder from GAME didn't hurt either. Now just give me that purple goddess!

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

NOA, get it together.

1. Realize that there's a very real chance orders won't open before release day.
2. Setup mobile alerts from Wario64's Twitter.
3. Sign up for NowInStock text, email, and browser alerts for all retailers.
4. Setup NIS's back-up Google alerts, and forward them to your phone.
5. Stop checking.
6. Start using thread for entertainment value.

Everyone who got burnt because they didn't expect the NES to be limited will be fighting to secure a SNES as soon as preorders open.

I know I won't be making the same mistake.

How can it get worse? There was literally zero availability of the NES classic.

 

[CJY]

Your math is off by 100%

Hardcores have it set to 100 posts per page

 

[valinthyne]

All I wanna do is play PUBG on my day off. Please Ninty. You dont even have to put it up, just say ANYTHING about it.

Larger pages = slower load times = slower buy times.

 

[Hastati]

10k repliesssss

Resellers on Ebay will charge ten times MSRP instead of three times. For starters.

You won't be able to get one even from scalpers.

 

[Earthbound64]

10,000 posts in a day.
Crazy.

Long live the SNES.

you're going to be top 5 in the last circle in a tense standoff and then the preorders begin
