On a more serious note, I've played EarthBound today for so long, I feel all tense and mentally worn out.
Then you called your mother and felt better?

I mean, I want the game and all, but 3600 seems a bit steep

To all customers: Thank you for your patience. I was asleep when this went back up, but it seems to have gone out again... Does anyone recall how long it was up for?

Seems like it went up shortly before 11:00 AM PST and was up until maybe 3:00ish?

Sigh. It was in stock when I got home (4:20ish), but I was trying to figure out if I should buy two (one for a fellow NES friend), I came back to it a few hours later (now) and it's sold out again. Oh well, I guess there's always next time. CRY.

So is this seriously the only way to get this game? Wait every 2-3 months and be notified within minutes that a few copies of the game will go on sale for a few hours and if you don't know about it or miss it by an hour then you are SOL and you have to wait another 2-3 months? This is ridiculous! Is there ever going to be a time where I can just go on the website and order the damn game without having to be on at some specific 2 hour time window?

Sivak for the love god, if you make any more games, use a company that can handle the supply and demand! It is such a shame that you put so much work into this game and hardly anyone can even play it.

@ZachAttack the site says 2-3 days if I remember correctly. Have you sent an email to RetroZone? I'm sure they could address your frustrations

ahh I see that now.....I had the page where you purchase it bookmarked and I was reloading that, it used to say "coming soon" and now it doesn't say anything, so I checked here and saw it was released again then sold out again in a few hours. Hopefully it really will be back up in 2-3 days (we'll see). I just wish there was a little communication or something to let people know whats going on instead of just checking this thread 10 times a day every day for the past 4 months. I am getting to the point where I almost don't even want to buy it anymore because it is becoming more trouble than its worth

Two to three days for a restock I can handle.

I decided to get two since I have a fellow NES bro with a birthday coming up.

By the way, they're in stock now, I just ordered mine.

I kept to one for now because everyone is trying to get it, my friend's birthday is not until July.
