Damn, attach some monofilament line, and it could be a Christmas tree ornament.

Just got one original NES Classic controller yesterday from the local Media Markt electronics store at € 12.99 (US$ 14.54) . They had dozens of them back in stock.

They tried to make me do a recap
I said no, no, no

Nice, those are great for modded Wiis, or for regular Wiis for that matter.
Btw great avatar, I'm also into vintage RCs.

Hey thanks. I plan on using the controller for some Wii virtual console games that don't need Turbo switches, since I find it awkward playing Adventure Island 2 and Dracula X with the button layout of the regular Wii Classic Controller. Plus, I can bring it to my friend who has a NES Classic Mini (lucky bastard preordered his one ages ago and got it at release day, haha).

And yes, I'm all in for old RCs, as long as they say Tamiya on the badge. Got back into the hobby some years ago with a Hornet, I'm glad it had been official re-released by Tamiya, so no worries about breakages and parts support, just fun running these old cars originally designed decades ago.
A Clod is still on my wish list.

What are your favorite R/Cs?

Well  Wall Mart just had the SNES Classic up for pre-order.

It lasted for nearly a half hour before either being sold out or the server just shutting down.

I was able to get a pre Oder in. Seems you could order two and have it sent to your house or pick up at a local store.

I opted for pick up at store. Only got one as it didn't seem like I'd need or want two.

I missed it, not that I need one . . . looks like it lasted 40 mins and they estimate they over sold . . . so that's great.  It's quite impressive to note the state retro gaming when a company can make 5 million "retro" units and sell out of them worldwide in a matter of minutes. TBH I'm surprised that they sell these for 80 and not 250.
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

I figured they would over sale.

I like many I presume am hoping not to be in the over sold catagory.

Did Nintendo send out an email to notify people?  Nintendo.ca said they would (email), but they haven't had any pre-orders in Canada yet...

Not to my knowledge.

You are not kidding I really don't want any of that.

And all the cheaper bundles are sold out.

Still cheaper then scalper prices.
