News crew attempts to film launch of Super Nintendo Classic, but no one showed up

The days of standing in line for new technology releases are apparently over, thanks internet.

Fox 5 out of San Diego attempted to run an exciting clip on the release of Nintendo's new NES Classic edition at a local Best Buy, but things didn't quite go as planned. There wasn't a big stampede or anything terrible, there was actually just nothing.

It appears as if only two people showed up to check out the launch, likely because most people pre-ordered theirs on the internet.
