Update - check in store target! GS and BB now sold out
I know - not pinball related but damn it these things were impossible to find before and a lot of you guys love the retro gaming like me. Right now it's in stock at gamestop free shipping! I just got one. $63 shipped to my door.

EDIT - Bestbuy still has stock (thanks @pdxmonkey)!
Quoted from DK:Just tried at 4:30am and they are out
DK is a great guy! I bet he gets two
Quoted from Join_The_Cirqus:menacefire is a great guy! I bet he gets two
I believe you can only get one per customer.
Thanks for playing 
Quoted from ercvacation:Just hack a wii for free and put as many nes and super nes games on it as you want.
so many ways to play NES games no question but damn it none of them include a little NES and gamepad directly from nintendo! Plus look at that box!
Really though if you just want classic NES games to play there are a 1000 diff and better ways. This is simply for collectors.
Thank you! Just grabbed one from Best Buy. Now I just have to find a second controller as it appears all of the genuine Nintendo ones are sold out.
Quoted from SilverBallz:Anyone hack their nes classic to install hundreds of games?
I bought a hacked nes mini that has 700 games on it, paid $100

There’s vids online how to do it.
Quoted from delt31:Can't believe people are charging $100
Quoted from Coz:I Guess it was supply and demand, I bought it when it was near impossible to find when it was released
Sorry I thought the hack was 100. That's fine then they are impossible to find. Not a bad price actually

I did this for a long time too. However, the input lag is real, and while you may not immediately notice it, once you do it’s impossible to go back.
what were the stock levels like for the official controllers? I know that with the original launch, it was like 30 systems at a store and 2-4 extra controllers
Just visited my nearby walmart. They have 24 available and a bunch of remotes. (Which I found out are wired)
I asked how long the wires were and the clerk opened the box to show me. Looks very short...does anybody know if there are extenders you can purchase to make them longer?
It's the only thing stopping me from getting this as a gift for the wife.

Order an aftermarket controller with a longer cord. The original is only a few feet long, unless you like playing 3 feet from your tv. The do make extender cables as well for under $10. I originally bought mine from amazon

Thank you sir! I was walking out of the store empty handed when I saw your reply. Turned right around and got a console and apparently the last remotes. This will be a nice stocking stuffer for the wife at Christmas.
Crap....turns out I bought two remotes. Now I have three because one was included with the console.
Anybody in Edmonton looking for a remote I have an extra one I can sell you at the price I just paid. (13$CAD)

if you can't find anyone locally or a friend that wants that extra remote, toss it up on ebay. you'll easily get your 2-3x your money back

I figured I could do that but don't mind letting a pinsider in need have it for cost first.
one of the target stores near where I work still have the snes classics as well. anyone need one of those still?

Oh man really? Yes...but Ill find one eventually, thanks for the offer though.
I’m going to try target on my way home from work. Got one coming from amazon uk as well but I guess I ca give one away if need be.

Is there any lag if you hack the NES mini?
Quoted from delt31:Guys go to Target. They're showing in store stock around me.
Thanks a bunch for the tip! My local Target did have it!
