The NES Classic Mini launches on November 11th but unless you've already pre-ordered one, it's unlikely that you're going to get it on that particular date.

Amazon UK has stated that its launch allocation for the console - which contains 30 classic games and comes bundled with an authentic controller - has been gobbled up already, but it is hoping to fulfill subsequent orders before Father Christmas arrives:

Due to limited stock we are only able to offer one unit per customer per address. You will be notified via email of the expected delivery date closer to the time. We will be fulfilling customer orders in the order in which they were placed, and expect to fill all pre-orders by mid-December 2016.

Limited stock of a Nintendo product? Surely some mistake.

If you've yet to place your order, then check out our North American and UK guides on where to do so (in addition to Amazon, of course). Oh, and while you're here, you might as well check out the amusing trailer we made for the system:
