Anybody else 'round here securing a pre-order?

I snagged one from the meme stock store earlier today and JUST got the confirmation email so I think I’m good (fingers crossed I don’t get a cancelled order email later lmao)

    Couldn’t get through on any site last night. But, I’m signed up for the Nintendo preorder on 5/8 so I feel pretty good I’ll get one of those.

    And if not, whatever. They’ll make more, I’ll get one eventually.

      I tried BestBuy and Walmart at midnight but they were having issues and was sleeping by the time it was resolved

      GameStop I snagged because they didn’t start theirs till 11AM EST and I devtooled the “Not Available” button to be enabled and it worked lmao

        I can respect that 😂

        Can confirm that Best Buy was messed up, the page repeatedly crashed the app. Target had availability for about 45 minutes I think. Yeah, I know Target bad. But Walmart and GameStop also bad. Nintendo bad.

        …me bad?

          We all do the best we can, so whenever anyone criticizes your choice of consuming something, just hit em with ol’ reliable “no ethical consumption under capitalism”
