Nintendo announces the SNES Classic

[Chester Copperpot]

Going to buy a bunch. Hold on to them for a while post-2018, then scalp the fuck out of everyone because people still haven't figured out what an emulator is.

 

[Grabber]

Just nostalgia. Plus, emulators CAN have viruses, regardless of how "safe" the site is.

I used to have over 500 ROMS, NES, SNES and N64 emulators on my old computes. I'm not going to take a chance to download them and ruin a hard drive or something on my expensive gaming computer or my lower-cost laptops.

I'd rather have either this or a Raspberry pi 2, but, it is still the same thing as downloading emulators to use it.

Most stores have confirmed a midnight launch next Thursday night/Friday morning. Anyone going?

 

[Grabber]

Not at midnight. I'll be about 2-3 hours into my bedtime by then, lol.

IF anyone is going, and you're a kind hearted soul and can pick up an extra for a small fee, I'll be your buyer

Ryan, that means you....

 

[Chet Donnelly]

Lol...for sure. Doubt they'll let anyone grab more than one though.

Link doesn't work for me. Summary?

You have to put in your zip code and it will list nearby Target stores that have SNES classic in stock and quantity

 

[2QuikTA]

I saw on another board target stores are getting 50-100, Walmart getting 40+. If they keep shipments like that up, reselling shouldn't be an issue. I just want one for me.

Target stock. One in AH on Rand has 90 units

 

[Marko]

Forza 7 comes out next week. Gonna play that for awhile before snes

 

[Fish]

I might hit the Walmart by my work at midnight and see the chaos/try to get one.

Once again, if/when they make a N64 classic, I will be in line, armed, nobody better get between me and my goldeneye machine. No real good way to emulate N64 except for PC, and even then its hit or miss.

I swear if someone says retropie you get a throat punch. Go try emulating conker on one and report back after you fail and get pissed at the audio and video glitching.

Just got a tracking number from my Target pre-order. Arrives Friday.
