When SNES Classic pre-orders in Canada kicked off in late August from Best Buy online, initial stock sold out in literally minutes, for the $99 retro console.
Now, another opportunity is available for pre-orders, as The Source will launch pre-orders today at 9AM PDT/12PM EDT. An email blast went out this morning to their VIP email subscriber list, informing customers about the pre-order opportunity:
The SNES Classic Edition retails for $99.99 and comes with 20 games plus never released Star Fox 2, and two wired controllers.
The fine print says the console is “not available for shipping to a store in Quebec.” Last month, Motherboard reported the SNES Classic Edition won’t be sold in Quebec due to the province’s language laws, which require a French version of games.

i’ve been tryin g for 2h07. i had it in my cart! the site crashes all the time and now it’s down for maintenance! crazy nintendo!
The website is so slow and unusable.
I’ll just keep using my original SNES, NES, Genesis systems. I’ll use an emulator for games that I don’t have, but I’ve got basically most of the games that I actually want.
The button is greyed out and doesn’t work for me?
