Nearest Target is about 45 minutes, I had BB, Gamestop and Wal-Mart in my area. Glad to hear you got your SNES tho!

Getting my switch required a preorder at gamestop and waiting about 3 weeks. It wasn’t ideal but I eventually got one. If the same thing happens with the SNES I’ll be perfectly happy.

That was my misunderstanding, I thought you meant 12am as in noon today. I knew they’d be on sale last night, but as I said in another comment, I had to be at work at 8 today. If the price of getting a preorder is waking my ass up at 3am (EST), I say that’s bullshit. Yeah I want things handed to me with minimal…

Also who’s arguing that it’s harder to get than an NES classic? I’m saying that it’s harder to get than it should be.  

How did you find out about this? I had this browser window open at 3pm EST and saw no such thing.

Agreed, the real test will be in a couple weeks if it’s available. But! Nintendo is demonstrably way worse at this than its competitors. I mean, you bring up the Switch, that’s proof. There were certainly retailers that ran out of ps/xboxes on launch day, but it’s not a chronic problem for them like it is for…

Interesting, I didn’t even realize another online sales window happened. But again, that’s kind of the problem.

Is this supposed to be a burn?

This is kind of the problem? I don’t want to navigate this kind of nonsense for the privilege of buying something. Like, will my store sell out immediately? Or will they still have it in stock in an hour? Or two hours? If I’d known I could’ve gotten it in a few minutes, then yeah, I’d have probably come in late to…

I mean, I’m happy for you, but if it was really 2017 I could’ve ordered it online.

Ditto. I only learned about the preorder once they were already sold out. And no way am I taking time off work to sit in a line outside best buy. I called all my local stores during my lunch break to see if they had any and SURPRISE they didn’t soo I guess I’ll just enjoy my roms instead? Sorry nintendo, I would’ve…

Nah, I don’t think lining up at 7 am and waiting for hours for a store to open is “without much problem...” I guess maybe for Nintendo.

I grew up in New England and I don’t know how this happened, but it’s true. Worst sports fans ever.

Thank you x1,000 for introducing me to this beautiful thing.

Wow you’re a real smug piece of shit aren’t you.

Actually he did “back” Ossoff, he just said he didn’t know if he was progressive or not.
