    ZSNES scrub!

    Begone with your lack of cycle accurate emulation!

    Thou hasn't been given the moniker of an emulation casual.

    Check the modified date on ZSnes in that screengrab, 2007 - that's the last time I installed a snes emulator :pac:

    Smyths have loads of stock for click & collect now!

    Was going to hold off given what Nintendo has said about replenishing stock but wasnt taking my chances this time after missing out on the NES.

    Yeah loads up there. Each store has 15+ at the moment...

    Just went ahead and ordered from Smyths and get my Dad to pick it up. Was going to try and get one in the States, but the US version looks damn ugly! I'll have to wait until Christmas when I'm home for the Euro version, but it looks much better! Worth the wait I think. Should be a fun Christmas :)

    Looks like the console is going to be as receptive to custom game libraries as it's predecessor, so that'll make them even more interesting.

    You 2 are lucky - my order got cancelled!

    Shambles, they said that their head office left the online ordering open when it should have been closed.

    Why are these things so bloody difficult.

    Same here Scottish. Ordered from Ennis Road Limerick at about 2 this morning with 15+ available and got cancellation email just before 9 this morning. Pretty frustrating

    Just picked up mine. There was maybe 6 left in GameStop. Wouldn't say many of them came in.

    It really is mini!

    I think my pre-order is okay. They sent me a very garbled email with no subject line that went straight to my spam box.

    I pre-ordered back in June.

    Same! Amazon says it's waiting to be dispatched... ordered it back when orders first went live (Think that was June?)

    Picked mine up over lunch with no problems.

    Sheesh... those queues for FIFA 18 are insane, luckily I could skip it as they had a section of the sales counter just for click and collect.

    I was getting jeered by the FIFA crowd when I picked up mine last night :D

    God I just don't get FIFA. I'm not a fan of sports games but any soccer game that attempts to be realistic is just awful. Stuff like NFL, NHL and basketball translate well but unless football is arcadey like with sensi or ISS deluxe (which I lament when it turned into pro evo) it just doesn't work as a game.

    I should have preached to them the virtues of super metroid.
