>The Tai Ding bot keeps an eye on preorders for you, and snatches one up as soon as they go live. The creators of the bot know there are quite a few people upset with this practice.

>“People have realized that our bot puts them ahead of the competition. We have a 93 percent success rate. Basically our bot is able to "Automatically Cart" and checkout an NES [or SNES] without the presence of a person monitoring the computer.

>It’s very much frowned upon by those who don't have the software and find it ‘unfair’ that others have the upper hand. The bot gathered a lot of attention last year around the release of the NES Classic. The attention died down after that but has begun to rise again during these past few months now that the SNES [Classic] is here.”

Yeah, not a first time that a game isn't release because of this.

All they have to do is do a bilingual packaging, though I don't understand, we did have the NES Classic.

Anyway, not like I would be able to get my hand on one, they sell out so fast.
>>
>>387969862

Will probably cost twice the price in CAD bucks and not even sure they can deliver here (I can't ship electronics from the US here).

And one other thing...it's out of stock also.

These things might as well not even exist. It's fucking impossible to get one without paying like 300 bucks.
>>
>>387970575
well, there are only 2 ways to beat scalpers

1) out supply em, make so much supply scalpers can not buy it all, but as SNES mini is not an ever green product, Nintendo know that if they over stock too much, that is something they wont be able to sell later on

2) cancel out ALL pre-orders, and run an stores only with ID pre-orders program. good luck convincing Retailers to do this
>>
>>387971061
3) have a basic ddos protection system that denies access to multiple orders coming from the same ip

Retailers are pretty much 10 years behind the rest of the web when it comes to technology, so I'm not surprised they haven't done something like this already.
>>
>>387971645
They're selling their inventory, so they don't care.
>>
>>387971878
Gamestop's entire website went down for like an hour and Target's website was not functioning at all for anybody trying to check out for at least a few minutes. Those are probably hundreds of thousands of dollars of lost sales, so they definitely do care. In the past, they've also tried to take legal action against the guys who write these scripts, but that obviously isn't going to stop them. Best thing would be for some arrests and prosecutions to happen against people who use these scripts, because what they're doing is pretty much the exact same thing as ddos'ing websites, which is an actual crime.

Use your head a bit.

This software was supposedly very inclusive that only a small ring of people knew about. What purpose do they have to tell people that theyre using said bot script? Thats shooting themselves in the foot. So theres likely two instances for which this dude decided to rat on them.

A. To dickwave, which can be incriminating since theyd be admitting to using a DDoS tool

or

B. To be a good samaritan and let everybody know.

And lets face it, the fact this script didnt leak means they were no good samaritan. This bot nonsense is likely a cover for something else.

Certain states have petitions where they cant limit what a customer buys. So stores cant do a 1 only rule.
