Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom pre-orders selling out throughout Japan
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
The NES Classic Edition has been a hot commodity since it was announced in July. It’s sold out at a lot of European retailers, and the same goes for the very select few in North America.
The Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom was announced for Japan last week, and the situation is similar there as well. Big online retailers stopped accepting pre-orders soon after they opened. The likes of Amazon, Rakuten, and Yodobashi have all sold out. We’ll have to hope that there will still be some stock around for the holidays.
Here are some additional photos of the Nintendo Classic Mini: Famicom by the way:
