So, 425 of 'em on 5/29 then another 25 each on 3 random days about a month apart thereafter.

Yeah, like when Nintendo promised the Switch would meet supply demand ... 5 months later ...

Is anyone getting the 2ds xl?  It's sold out on amazon.com but still available here. Should be good.

Thought about it but can't pull the trigger yet. I'd rather have the white/orange model that the Europeans got.

Anyone hear on the SuperNES Classic on sale here in Canada please pm me. Thanks!

Jason P

It went on sale in the middle of the night and sold out instantly

Yeah, what the hell was that?  I signed up for notifications from Nintendo, Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc.  Didn't receive a damn word about it from ANY of them.

I received it on release day via Amazon Canada.  It is pretty sweet.  I thought about holding off to see if I could get the white/orange model later as it looks cooler but knowing Nintendo that would be impossible to fulfill.  The only thing that is kind of correct about the reviews is the glareback.  As long as you remember to turn up the screen brightness instead of worrying about battery life you will be fine. It is a solid design and glad I pulled the trigger.

Seriously, I don't even understand how Nintendo is still in business given the way they operate. Ridiculous.

Didn't Nintendo say they were going to assure more supply was on-hand so they didn't have a debacle like the NES Classic release?
Watch them shoot themselves in the foot once again come November when they say they are discontinuing it...right before Christmas.  :fp:  

I was able to get the NES Classic.  Never was able to find a second, legit, Nintendo brand controller for it.  Got a knockoff on Amazon and it's a total POS.
I rarely even play the damn thing.
