You may have missed out on buying an NES Classic Edition last week, but all hope is not lost. Rather than paying a premium price on eBay to get your NES Classic console by Christmas, you should check out a Toys R Us store near you this weekend. On top of that, Toys R Us will also have Hatchimals back in stock and ready for buyers on Sunday.

According to BFAds’ sources, Toys R Us will release Hatchimals inventory this Sunday at 8:00 AM, priced at $59.99 per toy. Hatchimals are pretty much sold out everywhere, so if you want to get one in time for Christmas, this might be your best chance.

The NES Classic retails for $59.99, and the system comes packed with 30 classic NES games. The console was one of the hottest items on sale during the Black Friday week, and it’s also sold out everywhere. Unsurprisingly, Nintendo had a tough time dealing with the unexpected demand for the gaming system, and some people are currently paying thousands of dollars on eBay for the retro consoles.

A leaked ad showing the Toys R Us ad for December 4th follows below. BFAds notes that employees from a Santa Cruz Toys R Us store posted a video on Instagram seemingly confirming the upcoming availability of the two products, but that video is now unavailable. A comment on product tracking site Zoolert also mentioned the new Toys R Us ad.
