“Truly a farce of epic proportions,” one reviewer says. Others are sharing their frustration about getting a console in their cart, only to be unable to complete the purchase. Some are pointing out how many people who were able to get a purchase through have already started reselling the consoles online for $250 to $400 each, well above the original $60 price. Some owners are asking a whopping $1,000 for the device.
When Nintendo first announced the product, it made clear that the console would be available in limited quantities. However, it seems those limited quantities were far more limited than many people were expecting. While Nintendo hasn’t confirmed when additional orders might appear, the company is aware of the launch shortage and will work to get more out as soon as possible, hopefully before the holidays.
With the success of the NES Classic Edition, many gamers are hoping Nintendo will also release a Super Nintendo mini and N64 mini. If that’s the case, hopefully Nintendo has learned its lesson and will prepare accordingly. Additionally, it would be nice to see the NES Classic Edition make another appearance in stores and online before the end of the holiday season.
