Nintendo offers official statement on SNES Classic pre-orders. Hint: Not yet

Nintendo has offered an official statement regarding roughly when they’ll offer pre-orders for the SNES Classic Edition. The statement was released on Facebook.

The company indicated that they “appreciate the incredible anticipation” for the SNES Classic, and they “can confirm that it will be made available for pre-order by various retailers late this month.”

They also say that they’ll have “a significant amount of additional systems” available on launch day and “throughout the balance of the calendar year.” That’s the bit that still gets me, quite frankly. They’re only shipping this thing until the end of 2017.
