Due to popular demand, more stocks of the Nintendo Mini NES Classic are said to be piling up on different stores. Hunters of the console can now find it in Target, Best Buy, Urban Outfitters, Amazon and Toys R Us.

These retailers confirmed that stocks for the Nintendo Mini NES classic will be released as early as December 12th. Target has confirmed to update their stocks on Monday. This time, fans won't need to line outside Target stores, the console will be available on their website online.

To be exact, Target will start their sale on Monday, December 12th, at 8am AEDT, according to Vook. Yesterday, Best Buy was also rumored to have stocked up on the best-selling console, but the company later admitted that this news was sent out by mistake.

Sources reports that Best Buy will be restocking the Nintendo Mini NES Classic starting on December 20th, just in time for Christmas gift shopping. This was confirmed in a newsletter sent out by Best Buy itself. See the screenshot of the email newsletter below.

Once this tweet by Oscar Muñoz started going viral on the internet, Nintendo reached out to Best Buy to clear out any confusion. Immediately, Best Buy sent out another newsletter broadcast saying that the previous email was indeed sent too early.

While Nintendo warns buyers to refrain from purchasing the console from scalpers on Amazon and other selling websites such as Ebay, fans can still purchase from verified sellers on Amazon as long as it's sold for its Serial Retail Price. Amazon recently confirmed that they will restock the console, but has yet to release a confirmation on the date.

Earlier this week, the famous clothing store Urban Outfitters also stocked up on Nintendo Mini NES Classic on various locations. However, as expected, the console was flying out the shelves within minutes. This left more fans disappointed.

Nintendo needs to consider producing more of these little bad boys, or they will soon have millions of angry customers. The classic console will take users 30 years back, playing some of the first-ever video games that started it all.
