The Official SNES Classic Thread

[OJ Simpsom]

I think this is one of the rare times where it was best to buy instore than online.

Definitely. Smoothest transaction on a popular item in my life.

I'm reading stories of pre-ordered units being shipped next week.

For any brehs who haven't copped yet...

You can purchase the SNES classic on the Amazon App via the Treasure Truck option.

But the Treasure Truck is only available in the following cities below.

Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, LA, Miami, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Nashville, New York, Orlando, Phoenix, Portland, San Antonio, San Diego, Seattle, and Tampa.

I was available cop another one here in Boston at 12:15pm.

Where's the option? In Boston too.

NVM, sold out.

Reading some stories on neogaf, it's crazy how disparate some of the stock is. You have people saying there was 29 in stock total at their store and others saying there was over 100 at theirs. I get that bigger stores in bigger cities should get more but still.

Heard one story about someone waiting in line and the person in front of them buying the last 10 in stock.
that scalper and that employee for letting that bytch do that



I hate scalping but impatient fakkits that can't even wait till the system comes out to see if they can get one are even worse. People overpaid all over just cause of impatience

Hopefully the person who bought those 10 has to eat that $800 and takes a loss trying to flip em

I don’t even live in the city but the Best Buy that’s closest to me had a crazy stock or they printed to many tickets. When I went back to the store to pick mine up bul who was giving out tickets still had a thick stack of tickets, but at the checkout I only seen like a handful left in the cart after getting mine. Dude at the register was saying “people are about to be madd hurt, unless we got more in the back”.

Looks like once Wario64 tweeted it out folks jumped on it.

 

[mannyrs13]

No luck locally. Guess I'm making that trip then.

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

I couldn’t get one but don’t really care at this point. Would’ve been nice to add to my collection shelf but I ain’t tripping over it.

Nintendo just announced they are ceasing production of the SNES Classic.

I think this is one of the rare times where it was best to buy instore than online. I was shocked how smoothly the Target store where I got mine handled this. They handed out tickets, made sure people stayed in line, opened their customer service area with 5 cashiers waiting to check people out, and the consoles were already in bags. Once in the store, it took 5 minutes for me to pay and leave the store.

It was about as YMMV situation as you're gonna get. I've read stuff like your story where everything went great to horror stories like that a$$hole being allowed to buy 10 units.

Walmart has delayed some pre-orders and told customers that if they're not able to get stock, they will cancel and refund on their behalf
Just absolute bush league customer service

The two Wal-Mart's I went to had about 35 each. I guess target had the biggest stock. I was expecting nes classic levels of fukkery. But I got one relatively easy
