If you managed to buy a Nintendo Classic Mini NES from EB Games today, you were definitely in the minority. The website crashed within minutes due to the surge in traffic which left many customers unable to complete their orders. (There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.)
Fortunately, there’s still one last chance to pick up the Nintendo NES Classic before Christmas. Here’s what you need to know.
Update: EB Games is now completely sold out. If you need to get the Nintendo Classic Mini NES for Christmas, here are your remaining options.
EB Games has announced it will be selling the Nintendo Classic Mini NES again tomorrow (November 15) at 12pm AEDT:
This will likely be the final shipment of Nintendo Classics this year: if you absolutely must have this thing under your Christmas tree, be sure to visit EB Games’ website at noon sharp.
Here’s the link to the sale. Hopefully, EB Games has fortified its server situation to ensure against another crash. Only time will tell.

11.50am and can’t log in to EB account, just get a timeout message.
I tried yesterday at 12 for about 20 mins & again today for 1hr.30 mins. Today I could get as far as check out but it wouldn’t accept my password & rejected it every time I reset it. Wish I’d known Target & Jbhifi also had them
