Sooooo the fact that the SNES Classic has Star Fox 2 means I should be camping out at roughly 3am, right?

Too late.

Probably should get there around 9pm the night before.

You should be camping out already

 

[theMrCravens]

As cool as it is, this will obviously come out way too pricey here.
I hate our dollar.

You're already dead

 

[ohlawd]

wtf how do you get Final Fantasy VI on that thing but not Chrono Trigger

 

[Cmerrill]

I agree.fucking stupid.

I don't really expect it happen again, but if it gives you some hope, the NES Classic price in Canada was surprisingly reasonable compared to the exchange rate.

And now we have Canadian pricing: $99.99.
Best start training for the in-store battle royale for these things now.

Here we go

 

[Sealtest]

if true I can't believe NOC didn't put that premium on it.

 

[zroid]

$99.99 is reasonable!

 

[FearMyWrench]

Here we go

Can confirm; just got this from Nintendo Canada PR:

CANADIAN PRICING UPDATE: The Super Nintendo Entertainment System: Super NES Classic Edition will be sold at a Canadian retail price of $99.99.

 

[Fix-It Felix. Jr.]

I was fully prepared to pay $120. That's a good price all things considered, I'm happy about it.

 

[UberTag]

On the bright side, when we are unable to purchase the Super NES Classic due to lack of stock we'll be able to pick up a copy of Pokkén Tournament DX for the same price. How exciting!

 

[The Main Event]

Can confirm; just got this from Nintendo Canada PR:

Good news.

Now let the bloodbath commence.

 

[soultron]

I was fully prepared to pay $120. That's a good price all things considered, I'm happy about it.

Well, to be fair, you're going to be paying $113 or higher for it.

 

[Dazzler]

Holy geez. I have an existing Ontario number. I can just walk into a Koodo and ask for a Quebec number and switch plans?!

No. Go through a 3rd party seller like Best Buy. Tell them you're moving to Quebec and want a Quebec plan. When you get home, simply port your existing number over. It's that easy.

The staff at Best Buy know what you're doing, they just don't give a shit

 

[Oneself]

Good news.

Now let the bloodbath commence.

It will be ridiculous. :|

UK already has a preorder link. Damn.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

UK already has a preorder link. Damn.

Please please please guys, PM me or bump the shit outta this thread or create a new thread when preorder goes up!

I'm getting PTSD from trying to acquire NES Classic, running to Walmarts and EB Games and Best Buys and to see one in person was too much for me...

 

[CRA5H]

I'm going to be on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean when this comes out. God damnnit.

 

[N° 2048]

leeman right now:

Trade places? I need a vacation.

 

[Fix-It Felix. Jr.]

Don't rain on my parade!

but yeah, I'll end up with a grand total close to that range. Still better than $136.

 

[LastOne2100]

Oh god...I knew it would be coming but I pray it isn't as much of a disaster as the NES Classic.

It's Nintendo, who am I kidding. Probably already sold out.

 

[mileS]

Ain't even mad at the lack of Chrono Trigger. I have a DSi that has turned into a glorified Chrono Trigger machine. Replay it every couple of years. Great version.

but again, not even gonna get my hopes up.

 

[NetMapel]

My body is ready y'all.

 

[BaconHat]

Please please please guys, PM me or bump the shit outta this thread or create a new thread when preoder goes up!

I'm getting PTSD from tying to acquire NES Classic, running to Walmarts and EB Games and Beat Buys and to see one in person was too much for me...

Add me to that list.
I never want to have to redo the previous experience with the NES.

 

[Flare]

I need this. Oh god, why do I need this.

PS. Thanks for the Discord Canadabros.

 

[Fularu]

In for two

And for a pal one (the french guy in me can't stand the US look)

 

[doctorcdcs]

Theres only one thing we can do in a time like this.


*Turns on the Leeman signal*

Save us!

 

[soultron]

Are CA preorders going up soon? Evil Mario posted on twitter that UK preorders went up and down within 10 minutes lol

 

[c-murph]

Heading to best buy tomorrow. lmao 5gb for the amount I'm paying for 1gb. Hell yaw.

What's it usually cost for the initial set up?

 

[MegaManTrigger]

Can't wait to be able to not buy this, or best case scenario, win a chance to purchase the system.

 

[The Elite]

It's possible we won't see preorders, just like last time.

 

[True Fire]

I have a casual interest in this, but is it really worth the stress?

My Wii, Laptop, cellphone, Raspberry Pi, and microwave can already play these games.

Thanks for the Discord link. I'm pretty much glued to my work computer today waiting for when the preorders for the SNES classic go up...

Likely waiting for nothing...no word from any retailers yet.

Care to PM the link to discord?

 

[c-murph]

There's a classic SNES now? What benefits does it offer over say the original or any of the millions of emulators out there now? I'm assuming Nintendo went the NES Mini route and it just has preset 30 games again...

 

[Fumpster]

Just joined the Discord server, thanks for making that. I can't see SNES Mini Classic pre-orders going up anytime soon but you never know.

 

[kennah]

How do you change your number without changing your plan? I have the opposite problem. I live in Quebec and want to keep my Manitoba plan. Last time I tried it was $15 a month more for the same thing if I wanted to change my Manitoba number to a local one.

Rogers.

 

[socksfelloff]

wtf how do you get Final Fantasy VI on that thing but not Chrono Trigger

Final fantasy is a franchise with many new games for you to purchase. Chrono trigger is a dead franchise that square makes $0 on.

 

[JRBechard]

I'd be super grateful to get a PM to join in on that if possible.

Edit: Got it, thanks

Free

So Smyths Toys in Ireland has the SNES Classic up for pre-order. I pre-ordered to my parent's house in Dublin, and will get them to ship it to me in Canada, nice to have it taken care of. Will also pick up a North American one if I can

 

[BigJonsson]

SNES classic has a few top 10 games of all time on it, hope I can snag one
