Saint - don't cancel it yet! Amazon will adjust the pricing automatically within 48 hours; if you cancel your original order than you do risk being "lower down the list" when the first batch of stock arrives.


Yeah, thought about it and no need to cancel right now. Will see what happens to price of original listing and take it from there. If it does indeed go down then I'll do the right thing and cancel t'other one.

:slol: whadda palaver.

And now sold out again. That's probably it now. Pack up boys, it's over. Leave those memories alone.

Apparently many people who signed up for notifications with Amazon and was relying on that didn't get one because the listing number was different.

Don't worry fellas, this happened with the NES Mini too. There'll be more stock made available, just got to keep your eyes peeled.

I lucked out by being around when the Nintendo link went up. Pre-ordered and ready to go, can't wait!

You can see why resellers do it though. I mean there is literally nothing to lose. Onus is on the manufacturer to make it as fair as possible, which would probably have to be the way Sony sold the PS2 at launch. The more barriers you initially put in place, the more likely these things go to true fans. Sony tried with the 20th Anniversary PS4 but that was a bit of a shambles as well.

I hope there's a backdoor in this one to install more games, just like with the NES version. Someone will crack it, surely, even though they're bound to have beefed up security a bit.

I have no doubt more pre-order stock will arrive at Amazon, Nintendo Store, etc, but you may also want to keep an eye on Play-Asia as I bet they'll make all three versions of the console available for pre-order.

Good stuff on the Amazon price drop. I figured they would once Nintendo posted it's own price.

Also thanks to whoever is updating the topic title. Not had great access to the internet (At work just now) so not been able to really keep it updated with all the goings on.

So...

...apart from non-first party stuff (for obvious reasons), are there any noticeable omissions from the set of 20/21?

I would have liked Pilotwings.

I think this is where Sony may struggle if they ever wanted to launch a mini-PSone; they published an awful lot during that period, but own very little of anything here in 2017. All that licensing is going to eat into their profit margin. And then there's the soundtracks.

Pilotwings is the most obvious omission for me. Maybe Chrono Trigger. Shame Axelay isn't on there.

Credit to Nintendooomed, all the hype this year has come from them. 2 hot properties with the old limited stock trick, whether intentional or not.

Pilotwings is the big omission, the DKC sequels as well would have been nice to have on there.
