    I read the next batch is due December 5th...


    Nintendo tweeted that they are working to keep up with demand and they will be available through the holidays and into the New Year

    Hopefully the demand makes them consider another release with another 30 titles... and also Sega and SNES.

    It's pretty funny that the damn machine is the same width as the old nintendo controllers now.

    What would be the next 30 games if a new one came out in a year?
    (not taking into account them holding back games, also tried to stay light on sports) They could really make 1 or 2 VERY strong units. You can take half of these out and backfill them with some fluffy/light titles.

    Battletoads
    Bionic Commando
    Bases Loaded
    Blades of Steel
    Faxanadu

    Super Pitfall
    Marble Madness
    Tetris
    Life Force
    Metal Gear

    Kung Fu
    Adventure Island
    Duck Tales
    Mega Man
    Blaster Master

    Dragon Warrior
    Mega Man IV
    Maniac Mansion
    Rygar
    RC Pro Am

    Final Fantasy 2
    Castlevania III
    Ring King
    Super Dodge Ball
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    Adventures of Bayou Billy
    Gunsmoke
    Contra
    Metroid 2
    River City Ransom

    I thought about it earlier... but there were rumblings that this was LE. I know a guy who works at Target who said they werent getting any more, and a few people in forums who said they heard the second shipment would be smaller and it would be the last of them. I thought about getting an ebay one while everyone still thinks they have a chance on Amazon.

    But Nintendo came out today and basically said they are going to make enough to go around.

    I can wait a few weeks. Some of these games have been out for like 1,600 weeks

    Just scored one a few minutes ago on Best Buy Canada's website. They must of dropped some more. After going back only 2 were left in stock. Keep checking out big outlet online store. A few F5's & I was able to score one. Free shipping but HST charge from Best Buy. D'oh!!!

    Many are going up on Amazon USA & CDN @ 5pm EST. Good luck to all. :)

    Please note, we have very limited quantities of this item, however we will be receiving additional quantities over the coming weeks. Demand is expected to be very high, and there's no guarantee that it will remain in stock for long. We will announce when additional inventory becomes available.
