The fools who paid $300 for a Classic NES Mini. Hehehehehehe...

Well, that premium bought then a system 18+ months before most of the rest of us.  



Good thing i preordered just one .
I was really thinking of selling an extra unit for a high margin.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

In defense of scalpers.....

Its those high prices that generated a lot of the buzz around the NES Classic. That buzz created more and more interest in the system, which pushed prices even higher. Eventually, the buzz was so loud that even notoriously def Nintendo had to take notice. And now, they're taking steps to meet demand. So, while I understand the dislike for scalpers, I think it is important to remember that they have an important roll to play in the market.

Another way to say it, for the economists among us - scalpers amplify demand signals.

Sorry for your $300 purchase. 



Now I wonder if the NES classic will outsell the Wii U.

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true

I'll believe it when I hold one in my hands that I've brought for MSRP.

Well, that's good. That is extra money for them to earn, rather than leave it open to the scalpers.
