Sorry to hear about the snags.

EB came and went instantly, I couldn't even link it in time.

Looks like I was able to grab one off of Best Buy but friends who were also trying were unable to complete checkout. Congrats to those who got lucky.

Amazon.ca, you're our last (for now) hope in Canada. Maybe Walmart. Or The Source.

Good luck guys, I gotta stop doing this lol.

Had it in cart for bestbuy.com & .ca, target, and walmart and still wasn't able to actually get an order through on any of those.

I may have cost myself a target pre-order by accidentally F5ing while it was trying to complete the purchase. Though, given how long the spinny wheel had been going, odds are I was already long too late.

I mentioned right in this thread that I wasn't going to try to get one, and I still got suckered into trying today without being able to get one. Screw you Nintendo, why do you keep doing this to people who want your product?

That's one. Now I need a pre-order on a different site so I can get my mother one as an xmas gift.

Just a heads up in case they came back but I think the system was just that back logged.

Mine was probably spinning with no box or anything on that Verified by Visa screen for at least 3-4 minutes and then it finally went through.

Order details and email haven't been confirmed yet though so I guess we will see if it actually worked.

Edit: Order details are now showing in My Account but still no email. Looks positive though.

I wouldn't be surprised if they lock it behind Prime membership when it does.

Yep, exact same for me.

All the people bailing on it might have helped us get through...
