SNES Classic Trailer & Pre-Orders Go Up And Are Sold Out In Seconds

The US release Super Nintendo Classic trailer has gone up and this retro feast confirms many details that were in the Japanese Famicom Classic trailer. Live rewind & game borders are coming to the Super Nintendo Classic. Last night pre-orders went up on Amazon and Best Buy and sold out quickly. Many were happy to secure one but many were sleeping, including myself. Hopefully the rest of the pre-order sites go live today and there is a brief window where I can pick on up.

If you are interested in getting on I urge you to check the Nintendo page for retailers that have yet to go live with pre-orders like Walmart & Target:

Looks like they are selling out in around 30 seconds.

Yep. I've a had a few in my virtual hands and then click buy either killed the site or it was snatched away by Gremlins.

I thought I had one at gamestop but the site crashed.

Right. I think the only options we have now are ... getting lucky to find one in a store.

So yeah, looks bleak.

There's hope. Let's see if Walmart sends me an email in a couple days saying "Ooooohhh sorry. We shouldn't have sold you that."

A little context there, Travis and I JUST pre ordered a SNES Classic at Walmart. I'm going to wait a bit before posting about it though as last time... well it didn't work out

So how comfortable do you feel today? I got an email that there had been a change in my order and freaked out a bit, but it was just a release date change.

What was the change? I haven't seen that email yet.

Travis Admin wrote on 08/28/2017 at 07:25pm

It went from a delivery date of Oct 6 to Oct 3

Did you order me one?

jdodson Admin Post Author wrote on 08/28/2017 at 09:51pm

Sorry, I only ordered 50. 49 of those are saved for EBay!

J/k I think Walmart just allowed pre ordering one.
