That's ok, he just found out that Nintendo isn't launching with Pokemon so he's all set.
My Target has just gotten the Wii u Demo unit and they told me that was when they were getting the preorder cards too, so later today I'll be heading over there to preorder one.
[QUOTE="newown"]My bad ;/ I was like no pokemon launch title = no buy.Jaysonguy
So in other words you've never bought a Nintendo console.
Well I guess you wont ever be buying one so it doesn't really matter when they're available.
i liked pokemon xd on the cube a lot ;) better imo than any of the gameboy/DS ones.Has there ever been a console launch in the "modern-era" that didn't run out of stock at launch and become difficult to find? I'm willing to bet whenever shelves are re-stocked the WiiU will sell out quick like the Wii did. Part of me feels this was a strategy of Nintendo when the Wii came out. By keeping supplies low it made it look like the system was selling out faster than they could make them. roboccs
No it wasn't done on purpose, they kept stock low because of what happened with the Gamecube where they had too many lying around in the warehouses and had to stop production in 2003. And then once the initial Wii"s sold out they couldn't keep up with demand.
They're probably playing it safe again. There also having manufacting problems though.
yes there was a console actually 3 since gen 6- gamecube xbox ps3 then 3ds 3dsxl dsi those all did not sell out at launch 3ds did manage to sell out in a few days but not the same day or months prior infact no console sold out months prior to release this is the first one
I am tempted to buy one at launch as well, but it looks likethat time has past :(. I wonder how hard it will be to get after launch.
if amazon ever decides to list them, you can preorder from them ;)I am tempted to buy one at launch as well, but it looks likethat time has past :(. I wonder how hard it will be to get after launch.

Oh, I figured they had listed them and are now out, but they never listed them? That would be great if they did. I love Amazon.

i'm fairly certain they never did. but i have a feeling they won't, so don't hold out hope if another place starts taking more orders or something.if amazon ever decides to list them, you can preorder from them ;)[QUOTE="jeffster85"][QUOTE="NaveedLife"]

Amazon doesn't sell Nintendo hardware anymore.
The company got screwed over by Nintendo and their lies and now they just don't have that kind of relationship anymore, it's software only.

what happened between them anyway? I missed the news on that.It appears that Nintendo and Amazon have since squashed the beef between the two and now Amazon is back selling Nintendo hardware:

Sort of.......Amzon is fulfilling orders for other comapnies. They aren't directly selling any Nintendo hardware.
despite what anybodys says u still might be able to get 1 preordered via layaway at certain walmarts.. u have to go there in person. i'd try at least 3 walmarts before giving up. just last week somebody working there told me they were still doing the layaways

Walmart stores have reached their quota and they're locked in, anyone who says they can still preorder is wrong
I probably should wait to buy one anyway, but I am just so darn tempted right now. Unfortunatley it isnt even an option anymore :P

well unless that happened in the last week then that may or may not be true. i don't think the guy working at walmart would have told me that if it wasn't true. i was able to get mind preordered pretty recently too, about 2 weeks ago. i just don't think its right to to be giving ppl the impression that they should give up all hope when thats simply not the case.. its still worth a try. u may even be able to get 1 w/out a preorder.. if anybody doesn't show up for the day its released then their preorder goes to first come first serve if it hasn't already been paid in full which is usually the case for layaways which is why they do it in the first place.Please Log In to post.
