Hopefully they get another shipment soon
I imagine the site going down for it (more or less) will help them encourage nintendo to make more, and fast

I want one of the legit old ones. I have so many fond memories of playing on it as a child.
Also I played original Zelda on one during Hurricane Katrina to keep my mind off of it. Then I slept through the rest. I was like, if I'm gonna die, I'm gonna do it while I'm asleep so it doesn't hurt. I was in Alabama at that time.

Stores had at most 30, most 10 or less, Amazon sold out in seconds and crashed...
Nintendo clearly did not expect to sell out almost instantly
Like mom went to the local GameStop to ask them about it
They had campers waiting for them
No preorders for it for anyone
Prolly a bad idea, Nintendo

My mammaw had one of those. The only game we had was Tetris but we still enjoyed it. It never broke either. I wonder who has it now. Probably my youngest aunt.
Whoops. Preorders on everything!
I love it when you can 'preorder' something at the store. And you're literally just going to buy it a minute later. That's happened to me a couple times. lol. I love getting DLC for preorders. Though it's really annoying when there's different DLC at different stores. I ain't got money to buy the same copy of a game at a million different stores!

Well, the classic's different from the original, and is new, so...
And I'm not sure if the NES had tetris

Tetris teaches valuable life skills. I packed my entire life into a car to and from college, as well as loading up a freezer to capacity once a month because of that game XD

I meant the original gameboy. The one that was like a gray brick. lol.
I also liked the Nintendo. The gray one with the rectangle controller. I'm horrible at remembering names on consoles. I played Mario, Excite Bike, a weird Dragonball esque game, that shooting game with the annoying dog. So many games.
