UPDATE: US pre-orders are going live, and while individual purchases are selling out almost instantanteously, Thinkgeek has some bundle options available. They're a lot more expensive than just buying a SNES Classic by itself, of course, but if you also want the bundled-in items they're a good choice.

*update: Amazon UK , Nintendo UK,  Argos UK and Very have now sold out of their stock*

If the sales of the Mini NES are anything to go by, you should probably have pre-ordered the Mini SNES, complete with 21 games, the day before it was announced. Well because time machines just aren't a thing yet, here's the next best thing: the places you can pre-order the Nintendo Classic Mini SNES before its launch date on September 29 this year. Nintendo has promised that it'll be churning out more of these than the Mini NES so hopefully we'll all get the retro Christmas we deserve. 

Current stock levels are unclear and it's best to check each retailer in our list. Amazon US currently has an info page but we'll update this as more retailers get pre-order stock.
