I just built a Genesis Pi but wanna support the official release. I think they should have a captcha for when you check out.

Of course, still none in the U.K., after the US market preordered so many of ours...

I'm hopeful a U.K. pre-order goes live in the next 24 hours. Preferably quite late at night, since I'm working the night shift and might actually get the jump on everybody else.

What a crock of shit, I had a successful pre-order a month ago that got canceled because of Wal-Mart's incompetence, and now I can't get a pre-order anywhere because it didn't occur to me to be on my computer at 2AM on a damn weeknight.
Nintendo's stubborn lack of common sense with this and the NES Classic knows no bounds.

Seriously, the Earthbound series is like the Sami Zayn of the Nintendo company.

So how many of the 20 released games do you guys have a copy of either physically or digitially?
I think 12 of 20 physically and 2 of those 8 digitally (of course this is joint custody on some with my brother). I can't remember if we have an actual copy of Super Mario RPG or just on the Wii VC

So, what? You had to be at your computer at 3 am, ready to pre-order, if you live on the east coast and wanted to get one?
That's ridiculous, Amazon & Nintendo.

Finally a good part of having to work at 4 am. I'm happy for you :) But still, you're an anomaly, you know? And this is coming from someone who is up pretty damn late. Even if I happen to be up at 3 am, I'm not sitting at my computer waiting for a pre-sale of something. Just a ridiculous time.

But yeah I have no idea why these preorders go out in the middle of the night. Its not like this happens with everything cause when a Switch is in stock that happens in the afternoon.

Super Famicom Classic's library announced Additions to their library: Legend of the Mystical Ninja Fire Emblem Super Street Fighter II (instead of Turbo) Panel De Pon No Mother 2 interestingly Looks like the Fire Emblem included is FE3: Mystery of the Emblem, half of which is a remake of the first game and half of which is a sequel to the events of FE1 on the Archanean continent. This is in contrast to FE2, which takes place in the same world as FE1 and 3, but on the completely different continent of Valentia. Archanea eventually becomes Ylisse and Valentia eventually becomes Valm in Awakening. Surprised they didn't go with FE4: Genealogy of the Holy War considering that was arguably the most popular of the FE games on the Super Famicom. SFC Classic is also getting a soccer game. And the SNES Classic-exclusive games, besides Earthbound and SF2 Turbo, are Super Castlevania IV, Kirby's Dream Course, and Super Punch-Out!!.

You have to hand it to Nintendo, they're consistent as hell when it comes to making their products a pain in the ass to get. It's almost impressive.

So I called my local Gamestop at 1 on the dot, they said they didn't have a pre-order set up yet. I check on Twitter about a half hour in and apparently it goes live, so I call again and they're like "yeah we're going to sell out soon." How do you go from being in the dark to selling out in less than an hour?
Long story short, my wife teleworks so she drives to Gamestop and she hasn't confirmed whether or not she got it, but she was in line for a bundle that's $100 or $20 more than just the SNES. Does anyone know what the bundle includes?
Edit: It was sold out while she was waiting in line, that's a bummer.

Well my brother and I had the same experience on different computers. We had one in the cart for Target but had to make an account to checkout (don't know why) and by the time we filled it out, our carts were emptied. My co-worker had gotten one through his Target app and was charged for it but the order was cancelled 2 hours later. This is a big cluster f*** of an on sale.
