    Man I saw that Japan is getting Legend of the Mystical Ninja. I rented the shit out of that game growing up. I would have LOVED to have another opportunity to play it. I know I can either get a cart and system or whatever else. Still wish it was coming on the new mini SNES.

    You can get Mystical Ninja on Virtual Console if you're jonseing to play it.

    It's nice to know it is there, but I don't have any Nintendo systems currently.

    I keep flip-flopping on whether or not I want the SNES Classic.

    With the NES I have a decent collection of carts and an AVS to play them on, so the Classic NES didn't seem like a must buy, even though I did order one and ended up canceling it shortly afterward. (Which some days I regret, some days I don't...)

    But the Classic SNES Mini has basically all the games I liked on the SNES, so I could easily sell my SNES and carts and get that instead. Decisions, decisions.

    The only specific game for me that is missing to make it absolutely perfect is Chrono Trigger.

    Then again I still have my cart of it and the DS version, so I guess it's no huge loss.

    SNES Classic up for pre-order at Best Buy!!

    The site was acting screwy for me, telling me out of stock, can't ship to that address, etc. But I kept refreshing and eventually it went through!

    went through for me, thanks for the heads up!

    That's crazy, I was just watching this Japanese SNES Classic trailer thinking "gee I bet pre-orders will go up soon, that'd be funny if it was now".

    also said trailer revealed that there will be an instant replay feature that will allow you to rewind deaths etc. also custom backgrounds (and by custom backgrounds I mean you can choose from a selection of pre-made backgrounds):

    Neat, got in a pre-order.

    Kind of wish I had a NES Classic to complement it.

    ...fuck I shouldn't have canceled that NES Classic Pre-Order I got in at Best Buy.

    I've had alerts setup on those pre-order pages since the thing was announced. My thing beeped before I saw anyone even posting on twitter.

    I almost pulled the trigger on it, but then I thought about all the boxes of game stuff I have in a storage closet a few states away, and all the stuff I haven't even bothered taking out of moving boxes here. I doubt I'd play it for more than 20 minutes.

      Yeah, apparently the embargo went up on previews today.

      Immediately after pre-orders went up at Best Buy and Amazon.

      Which would have been a nice bit of synergy if both places hadn't sold out in minutes.

      I'm going to live vicariously through all of you here who manages to get a SNES Classic. Just like I live vicariously through all of the PA folk who managed to find a NES Classic. It does bring tears to my eyes seeing that there are some of you all who managed to snag them.

      I'm forbidden to buy a SNES Classic because my wife is so pissed off at Nintendo for botching the NES Classic which she really wanted and refuses to pay a cent to any scalper.

      I happened to be up at 2 am with the baby and saw Wario64 tweet out the new Amazon listing (different from the existing one for which I had signed up for an email alert). Managed to nab one. I didn't get the NES classic, but I'm pretty stoked to get this one. Gonna introduce my daughter to games on it.

      I didn't even get a nowinstock alert for this one. Not that it would have mattered since at that moment I was dreaming about naked yoga with Christina Ricci or whatever the fuck.

      None of the sites linked have listings. GG, Nintendo.

      Meanwhile, I called my local EB Games to see if they'd heard anything, but nope.

      Kotaku was insinuating that GameStop might go up today.
      Here’s a tip if you do want an SNES Classic: We just heard that GameStop told employees this morning to expect a “special announcement that will require immediate attention” later today. Keep an eye out.

      We never needed a "Witness Me!" button so badly.

      She's the exact same age as me, so she's kind of been my crush since like, forever (and I'll probably still be crushing on her when we're both 80 years old). Good to know I'm in good company!

      But yes, crossing my fingers for more pre-orders today. Best Buy's done, Amazon's probably done, that leaves what for the big players... Wal-Mart, Target, Gamestop? Any others?

      Back in the day I was a tabletop-hipster that played Rifts RPG instead of D&D. I didn't even know what an N-gage was until I found out that the makers of Rifts had chosen the N-gage to release their first electronic title.

      There was never a second as far as I know... go figure :rotate:

      I'm assuming these are the pages that'll show stock when they're available?

      I'm not trusting NowInStock to alert me anymore. Looks like me and F5 will be good buddies over lunch today.
