I put myself down for email notification from them on this item and not a word. Could it just be your location in Ohio? Their website is down.
ETA: Also was on a email list for Best Buy and Amazon. both of whom took pre-orders online Tuesday and I got no messages at all. whats the point of signing up for email alerts to not receive any? I am out. Fuck this mickey mouse BS. |

Snagged a preorder from Best Buy but trying to grab other online orders, one for my brother and another just in case one gets canceled. Having no luck. Hopefully when Nintendo gets sold to cover bankruptcy, whoever buys it will rerelease these in proper numbers to meet demand.

Are these going to only play the original cartridges, or flexibility to download? Are new cartridges coming out for it?

I got the alert from Walmat, AS I clicked the link it was SOLD OUT.
I WAS able to get one reserved thru Gamestop! You DO have to be in the physical store to have reserved one of JUST the system OR you can do it online for a bundle. (Their site is currently imploaded SOOO) They had posted on their twitter that they were starting reservations. Store restarted their system and BAM pre orders open! |

They will also be immediately hacked, and if it follows the example of the NES classic, it will have enough memory on board for way more games than the ones that are actually loaded. 
Think "Retro pi" but built and sold by Nintendo as legit hardware.
They will not play the old cartridge games, as there is no provision for a cartridge slot built into the system. If they are anything like the NES Classic, it will not be compatible with legacy SNES peripherals, (Super Scope, Mouse, OG SNES controllers), either. |

No NES Classics available anymore. So the only option is retro hardware or older possibly nonfunctioning hardware and cartridges. If Nintendo rereleased the classic I would buy one in a heartbeat. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Fucking lol at people clamoring to buy these things.
Do yourself a favor and get a Raspberry Pi, and load all of the games on all of the platforms up to PSX not just 20 preloaded SNES games. Oh and it cost me $60 and I didnt have to wait. |

SNES cartridges are no longer being sold. I hope ROMS stay prevalent so these classics can be preserved. The batteries for the saves are also long dead and I don't feel like replacing them. It's amazing how hundreds of games can fit on a SD Card, when they would take up a whole shelf of physical space. I Buy from the Nintendo Shop when I can for classics. |

Basically you can go from a game looking like pixel graphics, to vector.
