I got the mega man bundle.


I wonder if I can return the helmet for a refund.

If not I'll sell it off.

Like I am sure many other people. Since think geek is owned by GS I wonder if I can go to a GS to return the bundled items I don't want.

If its anything like gamestop's return policies on bundles then no. Congrats on getting a NES Classic, I am jealous!

I double checked after the fact. Yep they put a disclaimer saying you can return the entire bundle but not individual items as it would be "cheating" WTF?

Guess I am selling a $90 mega man helmet to try and off set the cost. Maybe I should go to GS and try and pawn it off with them since they own think geek I think.

Wow, what a desperate attempt to get rid of garbage nobody wants.

Damn. :)

Realizes I may have just offended someone who is wearing a Mega Man helmet whilst browsing the forums...

I wouldn't have hated the mega man pin set, but yeah.......

I'm 99% positive I've seen the rest of that on a clearance rack.

Yes yes I did.

Are you f*cking kidding me?

Nintendo.ca didn't send out an email or anything - they just updated their site to show that 'pre-orders are available now from these retailers'.  None of the three retailers they listed even have a product page for this item.  Real smooth...

Yeah, preorders opened in the middle of the night so that any person with a reasonable normal schedule would never get a chance at them.

I'm at my cabin this week, so managed to nab a preorder at a rural GameStop. Online preordering was a f*cking disaster. Walmart sold out, literally, in thirty seconds. Target was nearly as absurd. And GameStop crashed and never went back up.

f*cking Nintendo...
Games I Need: Bonk 3 (HuCard), Legend of Hero Tonma, Magical Chase, Soldier Blade, Super Air Zonk.

Got one to sell? PM me!

It's such complete bullshit, I just hope my amazon uk preorder is honored but I don't expect it to be.
