Fret not any more fans of Nintendo NES Classic Edition console and Hatchimals interactive toy, the hottest gadgets in town are arriving this Sunday as confirmed by retailer Toys R Us. The company announced that a new shipment will arrive on December 4 and will be distributed across its stores nationwide.

The Palm Beach Post reported that it received an email from the Toys R Us relaying the arrival of the Hatchimals and the NES gaming system three days from now. This is a good news for consumers since the two toys are virtually impossible to find.

Toys R Us told CNBC that their Hatchimals are limited to one item per customer. Some of the stores have no stock at all. Hatchimals and the NES Classic are also out of stock online.

Huge demand for Hatchimals and the NES Mini Classic has resulted in very limited or no supply at all. Hatchimals are reportedly being sold for $190 on Amazon as against its $50 price at brick-and-mortar retailers Target, Toy R Us, and Walmart. The Nintendo NES Classic is also commanding astronomical prices from resellers on eBay and Craiglist.

Buyers are advised to visit deal hunting forums on FatWallet.com and BfAds.net to keep abreast of stock developments for Hatchimals and Nintendo NES Classic. They are also told to get a quick notification on any news.

December 12 is another shopping date that buyers should prioritize. This online shopping event will offer Black Friday-like prices. There will likely be hefty discounts on many toy items including Hatchimals or Nintendo systems.
