I just received word from Amazon that sales won't start until tomorrow morning and they expect limited stock. :(
I may have to just stop at a store on way home tomorrow to see if it is in.

Yes, but more down the line.Its more because of lack of oportunity to buy than price, really.Not that it dosent mean I have the money to buy it XD
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Could you guys get pre-orders?
Amazon Canada mentioned to me that pre-orders would start tomorrow at 5pm ET.

Does anyone know if there're the possibility of checkpoints? If not, NES games are a nightmare. I'm not such a hardcore gamer xD.
If not, I'll probably buy it because of Nintendo love and collector purposes. Not sure though. If a SNES mini is ever released, I'll buy it day one. Games are way more accesible, and it was my first console, so nostalgia is strong with that one.

Nope - that is the same message I received. I guess it was PM not AM. Really surprised no actual pre-order. Sometimes Nintendo just doesn't help themselves.

Hmm my friend actually received the message and they copy and pasted it to me, it definitely said PM.
I'm guessing it would be though since that would be 2am PT. Although I'd prefer that since it would be super easy for me to wake up at 6:30AM (Newfoundland timezone) order, and go back to sleep :)

Double checked my email, "The NES Classic will be available for sale at 2:00 p.m. PT on Friday, November 11". I assume this is for all of US. Did your email say 5pm?

There are 4 save states for every game.So you can save anytime for any game, even for the hard ones, like ghosts and goblins!
I recommend checking a review to see if you think the system is for you.
