Cancelled. Dang it.

Cancelled. Dang it.

That sucks. Who would the next biggest likely supplier be? If it's anything like the UK pre-order roll-out then start tracking that store as they seemed to be doing it one store at a time in the UK.

Did you actually get confirmation and then a cancellation. This is my perpetual fear with my preorder despite two follow up emails in the weeks that followed confirming it will definately go through this has somehow only made me worry more!

lol, I don't think I'm going to bother. Not worth the stress.

[Sarge]

Yep, confirmation and cancellation.

Yep, confirmation and cancellation.

What time did you place your order? I ordered 2, one as a gift for my wife's brother. Nine haven't been cancelled, yet...

Apparently the UK retailer Argos cancelled a bunch of orders without necessarily telling anyone. it might be a good idea to log in and check on yours if you ordered from them.

The cake is a lie.

Just chatted with a rep, and here was her response:

"Thank you for verifying your address. I have checked your order and I am sorry to let you know that this item is not available to pre-order yet. Due to a system issue the item got available to order, regrettably the item will be available until next week. I apologize for the inconvenience this may cause you."

I got the confirmation email at 11:02 PM CDT.

So

The cartridges were an improvement though, if only for the wrap-around label that made storing or displaying loose carts much more aesthetically pleasing.

Although that doesn't matter with the SNES mini.

Definitely. Most of my old Nintendo stuff is loose so having end labels is great. The European/Japanese carts also have that slight curve to them that makes stacking a little wonky.

So reading between the lines we might see preorders popping up everywhere next week?
