Hope they do a v.2 down the line with more games as there are so many ones I'd love to own...
Bad Dudes

Battletoads
Bump n Jump
Metal Gear
RC Pro Am 1&2
TMNT 2
Tetris

Those are just the ones missing off the top of my head I'd want. Really surprised Tetris isn't on here. Must be some weird rights issues going on behind the scenes as everyone had that one
There WILL be mods.

I'll probably buy two, and hack one.

50/50 on Bad Dudes being possible. Data East went bankrupt. Majesco now owns the licenses, and they are known for putting out their own retro products.

Battletoads and RC Pro Am are made and owned by Rare, so chances are slim to none.

TMNT is also unlikely as it's not just a matter of acquiring Konami rights again, but also TMNT rights, and that's likely not worth the effort.

Meh. Went to 2 stores near me (EB and Best Buy) after the gym (40 min before opening). Both had long lines. Said the hell with it. I'll wait until stock shows up online. Can't be bothered to wait in the cold for something nowadays.

Ugh - I was hoping this one flew under the radar for a few days. I will hit a mall close to me that has a BB, EB and WalMart in it to see how I fare. The open up in two hours.

Snagged one at Target. They only had 6 and apparently all Target stores on,y have 6. I went to a Walmart last night at 11:30 and was 7 in line and they also only had 6. I got up at 5 to get in line at Target and was first in line. Got the extra controller of which the store only had 3.

Ya the buzz will die down and everything will be restocked soon. I'm not going to worry much, I'll get one eventually.

Have to think that most of the campers are just in it for the resale factor to take advantage of the low quantity (as per the norm with anything Nintendo). They'll have their few days/weeks of fun gouging people until regular stock starts rolling in
