If you weren’t able to secure a SNES Classic pre-order — it’s likely that you haven’t given how quickly they sold out at Best Buy and The Source — there may be hope for you if you live in the Greater Toronto Area.

EB Games Canada’s official Twitter account has confirmed that the company’s flagship Toronto store, located at 267 Yonge St, will have 500 “walk-in” SNES Classic consoles available this Friday, September 27th.
