I see this "UK preorder not guaranteed" sentiment a lot. Any idea why? G L O B A L B O Y shipping goes to U.S. all the time.

It's because Trump posted a tweet saying he was going to do all he could to stop the evil PAL SNES menace from entering the great shores of the United States of the America.

OT, but Deep Jungle in Kingdom Hearts 1 might be the WORST designed area in any video game I've ever played.

So far the whole game just feels barren and lifeless (esp. Traverse Town, why are there no people anywhere?) and each "world" is maybe 5-6 small claustrophobic areas with terrible platforming. Why does Sora jump like he's on a broken pogo stick?

Can i pre order from deep jungle or are the heartless holding up pre orders?

JapanGAF: Since I didn't see any other data points for this, apparently this dude's Tsutaya started taking preorders for the SFC Classic yesterday, so we might see some other places start preorders today. Fingers crossed.

No idea what that means, but why is the 7980 yen crossed out? Are they discounting it or something?

 

[bosh]

every hour, huh guys

every hour

This hour is the hour

Pre-orders would make sense because they could gauge demand, and adjust their projections accordingly. Instead Reggie and Co. want everyone to waste their time waiting for a pre-order that might never come.

The least they could do is announce if there will be pre-orders. Like isn't that the right thing to do. Whenever Apple unveils a new product they tell you straight up when it's available for order. Isn't that how most companies work?

What gives Nintendo?

 

[Blam]

One minute. LETTS GOOOO

 

[Spade]

If not this hour, the next one surely!!!

 

[Wanderer5]

And.... And.... er.

Maybe they didnt expect everyone to lose their minds after 2 days. Im sure there will be preorders

USA not important to Nintendo confirmed

 

[buttdiver]

We must have misread the signs. 7 PM will surely be our time.

 

[Blam]

[bosh]

Can't believe you held it for 36 hours

 

[Netherscourge]

The funny comments are piling up in the Amazon Q&A section at least.

 

[bronk]

[Naked Snake]

Another rickroll incoming...

 

[ZiggyPalffyLA]

Can i pre order from deep jungle or are the heartless holding up pre orders?

You can try but you'll probably fall off a vine and land in a hippo lagoon. Good luck getting out.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

That's like some DMC5 type of shit. E3! Nope. TGS! Nope. PSX! Nope. Rinse and repeat.

every hour, huh guys

every hour

Everyones just super pumped for 3pm. It's a nice middle time, the hands on the clock are at a right angle, most of the day is behind, getting closer to quittin' time.

Start the countdown for 4pm, boys. It's an even number and everyone loves even numbers.

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

Not even a rickroll troll? Sad.

 

[facetheslayer92]

This is a legendary thread so far.

 

[jennetics]

All right, heading home from work. Wish me luck!

 

[Wanderer5]

I am going to take a crap, screw this

And the preorders are put up just then!

 

[hitme]

Guys I heard from the head honcho that is gonna be at 7

Is the head honcho your uncle?

 

[Raitaro]

don't not - double negatives!

YOU WANT AMAZON TO FAIL YOU!?

NO! (Sorry, it's late, I made an error. Honestly, I'm not mad...)

Can I have this?

lol

Presumably it'll be discounted to some extent, but that discount is yet to be determined.

My magic 8 ball guides me. I gotta give all the credit to that thing once it's right.


Also, just saw the previous page shopped pic...lol

Amazon UK isn't EU

Oh yes it is. For now anyway.

 

[panama chief]

Is the head honcho your uncle?

That's the only legit family member.

 

[faint.]

My uncle works at Nintendo and told me they're purposely holding back US retailers from pre-orders in order to artificially create demand.

[Setzer]

Didn't this happen last year with the NES Classic? Took Amazon US like 3 months after Nintendo announced it to put it up for pre-order?

 

[Josh5890]

Gaf just crashed for me and I paniced big time

We've made it two days, what are two more months?

 

[Whales]

My uncle works at Nintendo and told me they're purposely holding back US retailers from pre-order in to artificially create demand.

My uncle works at Nintendo and he told me there is only one SNES classic available for pre-order in NA

[Ovid]

Came back from the gym and I see that nothing happened.
