Read the loving page you lazy gently caress. In case you won't, only Walmart has done it so far

I suppose I could. You could also go gently caress yourself.

Man maybe I should remove Wal Mart from my alerts because if they wake me up only to cancel my pre-order, I'll hate them more than I already do

My pre-order was cancelled for the same reason. It's possible there was a typo somewhere though because my wife was placing the order while I gave her my information verbally.

Mine was cancelled and it was 100% correct. All of the info was already in there, as I've ordered online before. I also ordered in the first 2-3 minutes of the presale. gently caress you and your piece of poo poo family of owners Walmart!

Anybody have or picking up the 8bitdo wireless controllers and Bluetooth receiver? I guess it's not officially supported yet, but I can't see why it wouldn't work. The NES one works. 80 bucks is pretty steep though!

I assume it has the same Wii ports since it supports classic controllers. I need to get an adapter as I just got a NES30 Pro from Massdrop. I wish I bought the Wii adapter when it was on sale during prime day, didn't even think about the SNES classic edition.

BTW just a curious question. Did you have your order ship to the store or to your address on Walmart?

There are pre-orders still open for some people but I am seeing more get canceled.

Did you buy from fnac? I didn't order the SNES Classic from them, but previous pre-orders of mine through them sent an email very quickly after orders with the subject line "Votre commande Fnac.com du [day of the week in French] [longform date in French]", maybe check your spam folder, it may have gone there since it's not in English, depending on your filtering. It should also be possible to login and check your order details, assuming you actually created an account to order (I don't know if Fnac even supports that).

And there's screenshots of customer service reps saying pre-orders will be open next week.

I have a feeling all of the ones from the first wave will be canceled and next week will be the first real chance to get some via Walmart.

FYI Wal-Mart saves your CC info without asking so if you're new to their site for shopping online be sure to log back into your account, click on the CC tab, and delete it. I've only used them once or twice, admittedly didn't use the world's greatest password since I only created an account because they force you to, and someone got into my Wal-Mart account a few months back and ordered a PS4 for store pickup halfway across the country. I was lucky I saw the e-mail about "my" order in time to cancel it.

My SNES classic order hasn't been cancelled and there is a hold on my CC for it so obviously they can't honestly claim they couldn't verify payment info. Interested to see if it holds or not. I'd rather get it via Amazon anyway, but those idiots NEVER e-mail me and they always sell out in 0.5 milliseconds anyway.

Out of curiosity, do we know for sure that the SNES Classic is going to have a USB plugin like the NES did? If they go with a proprietary power cord instead of USB, there goes easy hacking.

Also I used a saved updated credit card when I put in my orders with Walmart. All 3 of my orders were Site-To-Store. I have not received any notification of a cancellation yet.

Ya, I got an email from FNAC that same night. Haven't received any updates but didn't expect to until its release.

I had one shipped and one for pickup. Will see. So far no emails and the one I had shipped to me house was in my cart within 30 seconds of the order going live and purchase was completed within 2 min of that. So either they are just cancelling certain orders for specific reasons, or starting with the later orders and cancelling those first.

Or maybe they oversold what they meant to and cancelling the later orders.

:eng101: "Va te faire foutre" is the correct way to start that. also the "scalper" qualifier wouldn't be necessary, being American full stop is amply sufficient reason for the French to tell you off.

Walmart support lady said "it was a problem with our website" "we're getting more next week".

Then I told her I appreciated her help and didn't blame her, then bitched about them being the largest corporation on the planet and not offering a voucher to the people they hosed up on is unacceptable blah blah. Of course, that did nothing, so I guess I try again next week. :)

There's no consistency to the cancelations. Best I can see is Walmart is canceling at random. Target officially confirmed they will have pre-orders and Walmart seems to be saying they'll have it next week.

Worst case is Walmart does cancel all orders and we have to prepare for the next rush. But we would be in the same spot we were 24 hours ago.

That makes me think the pre-order wasn't by mistake, but either the cancellations or overselling of them was a problem with the website.
