I should have this on the Craigslist thread but it's gotta do with this.
NES Classic
Re: NES Classic
GameStop's site is going really slow. Has to be that they're getting slammed. Hope Ninty's got lots of stock!

Re: NES Classic
I'm sure they do. But they'll hold stock back to create the illusion of scarcity to increase desirability. It's Nintendo strategy 101 since ye olde days.Sarge wrote:Hope Ninty's got lots of stock!

Re: NES Classic
I'm not even surprised anymore when it comes to gaming stuff like this...it's just rather sad that people are willing to stoop that low though

Check ebay it's horrid.
The scalpers are hitting amazon so bad right now the page from the start would allow a click and put nothing into the basket to buy, and now it's straight up dead, white screen with nothing. I'm pissed.
I'll try next round and the next when the morons stop feeding the trolls. And if it bumps up against the Switch Nintendo can eat a dick I'll get it used -- CHEAP. Fed up with their policies of under stocking goods to create hype as it's just the actual consumers who suffer.

Re: NES Classic
Someone on my local Facebook group is hocking one for $280. Even with sales tax, that's 4.4 times what they paid.
Re: NES Classic
I've been on the fence about getting one, but this is stupid.
I'm just going to make an "NES Classic" folder on my Wii SD card with just those games to celebrate the occasion and call it special.

Re: NES Classic
First post in over two weeks not made from my phone, but from my actual desktop PC instead! Ah, the little things...
So, Kotaku ranked the games on the NES Classic, "not based on their influence or how they were back in the '80s and '90s, but how they play today."
This dude must've spent only 3 minutes with each game he didn't already know. Besides, you look at his justification for the rankings and it's clear he has some major nostalgia/historical bias going on, he just doesn't seem to recognize it. Would love to know if anyone on here agrees with this particular game ranking, because I'm not feeling it in the least.
