          Few hours ago? For Amazon…
          Member posted a much better price, gave them 2hrs to share it, they didn't.
          Just sharing the love, no personal benefit here besides seeing people get the best price

    How dumb are some people?

    • Holy shit :/

      • There are dozens of sales, most around $300 but even that is ridiculous.

        • Usb charged too, so you'd never know if it was UK or aus stock!

        • @Spackbace: Well there is the ratings stamp, which is often the difference collectors look for.

    • +1

      just as dumb as these people

    • Just look up Pokemon Go Plus and check those prices out as well… The sad thing is that these auctions exist because people will actually buy them at this price…

      • I'd say that one is even dumber because Nintendo are on the same results page on eBay, if you miss the obvious $50 BIN official Nintendo listing, I dunno, you probably deserve to pay scalper price.

  • Now just need another controller…

  • Thanks OP. Just did the purchase great deal.

  • Showing as 49 Pounds for me. Am I doing something wrong?

      Just not legally ;)

      Lol but yeah that comes up on every post for this :P

        • Pfft, you don't think I've never been negged? 😂

          Side note, your neg vote wasn't me ;)

        • @Spackbace: What's the big deal about being negged anyway?

          @djmm:

          Some people prefer to down vote a comment rather than just say something.

          It's like having someone lightly push you in anger - they think they've affected you, meanwhile you just go about your day!

        • @Spackbace: It's all about those fake internet points. :D

      • Novelty runs out pretty fast on these, save some $$ and buy a PS4 lol
        but real bargain for people who selling these for $300+ crazy!!

        • Eh, bit of fun at Christmas :)

          Probably still resell it for $50 after you've had your fun with it. Doubt these will get a price reduction locally for a while

      Why does everyone claim that emulators are a replacement for the real thing?

      They aren't. Numerous issues depending on game.

      • This is true. I've been plying some gameboy titles on an emulator on my phone, and it is pale compared to the real thing, even when the emulation is spot on.

      • +2

        On NES? It's such a simple system, the silicon has been thoroughly replicated by clones, I'd be surprised if we didn't have perfect emulation.

        BTW, this official Nintendo product is almost certain to be an emulator, just like their virtual console stuff…

        • The original silicon used will of been discontinued long ago .

    Erm, 47.24 quid at checkout for me…

    • Still 45.24 here

      • Maybe two quid more to ship to Melbourne?! ;)

    • ..and now it's 54.24 quid. I think I'd better stop looking, as every time I do they put the price up! ;)

  • mesmerising

    Really? Does it come with DMT?

  • Still waiting for Nintendo to release the N64 miniature version.

    Out of stock already? Oh come the f on!!

    People please stop buying more than 1 of these deals! Some really want these to play not to make profit!!

      Brodended huh? Well, at least they will all turn up on eBay for $400 soon enough.

      • ;_;

  • Is this even the first shipment?

  • +1

    Out of stock ! Bummer - first disappointment of the day - wonder how many I will have today :(

    • noooo be positive! :)

  • +1

    Aw man I missed out on this as well.

    They're selling like hotcakes. I missed out everywhere whenever they went on pre-order.

    Which makes me question why is there such limited stock of this?

    Regardless I'm hoping they release more to flood the market and destroy those annoying eBayers that buy large quantities only to make a profit by marking up the price 3 or 4 times.

    • Ironically the announcement of these has killed the 2nd hand market for the original NES which were going for ridiculous prices on fleabay.

    I bought 30 guys. If you missed out feel free to check out my eBay listings sheeple. Kindest regards, Broden.

    Just received this email. I guess Base.com have been OZBARGAINED!!!

    Dear OzBargainer,

    Thanks for your order of Nintendo Classic Mini: NES.

    We have spoken to the suppliers and have been told that this is in extremely high demand. As a result we will be allocated a quantity which we are yet to know the details of.

    Hopefully we will be able to fulfill all orders, But if we cannot the consoles will be sold on a first come first served basis. Customers who have ordered multiple consoles will have their orders reduced to one per customer.

    We are trying to find out more details and will keep you informed once we know more.

    You will only be charged for your item when we are ready to ship to you and may cancel your order at any time up to this point by logging on to your account.

    Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Kind regards,

    Customer Services
