Thank God. Finally managed to put through an order on the app. For people having trouble with the site, try using the app.

Managed to get one through the GameStop app for 7/3 shipping using Apple Pay. Payment shows on my card but no confirmation email yet.

Both console and controller both available on the BB desktop site right now. I'm assuming if there was truly limited stock they would've at least sold out by now, so it looks like Nintendo put their money where their mouth is.

Maybe they decided that they'd actually like to sell some of these money printers.

I'm not sure why I even got this but I ordered solely for collecting lol. And gotta say my luck while making eggs streak continues. Heard my phone go off and assumed it was a wario notification frantically grabbed my phone and placed an order. Was litererally in the same exact position when I was ordering my snes classic. And during that order I had the extra time to run and grab a gift card to use for the order.

Have a feeling the controllers will be relatively scarce. Nothing showing local for me on brickseek.

Looks like there's plenty of stock. Just placed an order on Bestbuy and got a 2nd controller!

Ordered!

Nintendo was true to their word, they have way more manufactured prepared than the original NES classic release ever did, and I actually saw SNES in Best Buy stores just last weekend, and the NES mini uses the same hardware too so there should be plenty. Ain't paying them scalper prices, hahaha!

Was able to lock mine in through the great Wario himself providing Intel.

Looks like stock will be good for everyone who wants one, to get one to the end of the year with none of the scalper nonsense.

Got one through bestbuy's website. After all this time, was it really that easy? I almost paid way over RSVP to a reseller last year.

You and I both, and then a friend was able to snag one through Amazon's Treasure Truck. I'm rather excited to finally be getting a second controller, because even that was tempting me at 3x markup. Glad I held out.

Is the new batch still hackable or has Nintendo fixed it?
Managed to buy one here in Sweden for only about $75.
Cheapest price yet thanks to a store wide discount sale (15%)

BB has the console still in stock and the controller sold out, interesting development. Either controller demand was much higher this time, or Nintendo potentially undershipped controllers again despite shipping a lot more of the console itself.

Can't remember which retailer but they said they would have consoles in store but not controllers at eveey store.

Easily got on at BB and had plenty of time for GameStop also online. Looks like supply is much higher

Huh, just checked on my end, you're right. Nes still up but, man, I'm glad I opted for the 2nd controller during check out.

Just placed an order through the BB app for one console. The controller was sold out at first but just came back in stock and placed another order for it.

Controller keeps dipping in and out of stock. Funny how there seems to be more demand for it than the actual console.

Famicom mini is available through Amazon.co.jp as well. Just placed an order for shipping to the US. I finally get a chance to own all three version of the NES classic.

Well, I think a large number of people from the first go around are also looking for controllers, so you have double interest.

I went to my local Walmart at about 230. I usually go shopping for groceries at like 430-5 in the morning so it was only a couple hours earlier than usual. They didn't appear to have them on display even if they had already sold them all since there were no gaps in the cases. I just got an order in at Best Buy but I honestly don't feel that confident in it.

They were in store in Game stores in the UK last week. My local has had snes minis on the counter for months so I expect that they will have stock of these for a while too,

Picked up a Famicom Mini but wonder if it's really going to be so scarce this time? I imagine the buzz has worn off, and it's not anywhere near Christmas.
