State of the Preorders (8/25) (No new USA information, new Japan information)

Here's the new deets: Nintendo Japan tweeted that they would open preorders mid September. I'd stop f5ing for a Super Nintendo Classic for another 2 weeks or so.

Amazon - Went up on a weird listing, people were able to order up to 30, we suspect Amazon will reduce all order numbers to 1, and make them available to preorder again. Pay attention to this one. Amazon Offers link Do not contact customer service if you already have a preorder, someone lost their preorder due to that. Update from 8/24, they fixed people's orders from the weird listing, and it shows the correct product. Just more proof those preorders should be honored.

Amazon JP - Likely a place to preorder a Super Famicom Classic, no page available yet.

Best Buy - The first one to open the breach. Sold out at 1am on 8/22, unsure if it will open back up again. No update.

B & H Photo - All I've seen is a customer rep saying they won't have preorders.

Ebay - If you want to pay 3-5x what the console is retailing for, ebay has stock for you. I really, really urge you to try everything possible and keep trying until Nintendo discontinues the SNES.

Gamestop/Think Geek - Officially sold out, had preorders in store, think geek bundles, and the gamestop app. No update.

K-Mart - There was a rumor going around that they'd have it. Basically another shitpost/troll. We have no good evidence/rumor for Kmart stocking it, preorders or opening day. It was not mentioned as a retailer on Nintendo's official SNES classic page.

Play-Asia - Might have preorders for the PAL edition and USA edition of the SNES Classic. SNES Link

Sears - See K-mart, basically no evidence to support that Sears would have them.

Target - Randomly seems to have orders open up again, but bots seem to get it in seconds. But if you're gonna refresh a page all day, make one of them Target.Target refresh frenzy! Target does not appear to have reopened during 8/23, they may be done for good.

Toysrus - Officially said no preorders on twitter. Maybe consider this a store to stand in line on launch. Nothing has changed to make us think they will be doing preorders.

Walmart - Went live at 1pm est on 8/22, sold out in literal seconds, only the Flash made his preorder in time. Unsure if there's even a second chance.

Super Famicom - Nin Nin games, Solaris Japan, Amazon JP and Play Asia haven't opened preorders yet. [Nin-Nin] (https://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/sfc-systems-accessories/24109-nintendo-classic-super-famicom-mini-brand-new-.html#/option-without) Likely we won't see these open at all until mid September.

I have no preorders, (and I must scream) what are my options! - Well here's what we think you'll be able to do:

Stand in line on launch day. At this rate, I would expect to go a minimum of 4 hours early.

You can watch Prime Now if your city has it. Follow the amazon twitter (apparently it's @amazongames) istocknow will work for tracking it as well.

There's more than likely to be an Amazon Treasure Truck, I'd expect them to be in the same 6 cities as the NES classic (Atlanta, Dallas, Chicago, LA, Houston, Seattle).

Nintendo will still produce units so maybe you'll find them in a restock (use brickseek!), and websites will likely have at least ONE more restock after launch.

(please let me know if I missed anything, I will edit OP, good luck to you all)
