well it says local retailers. I can see that happening. I'm sure the orders from amazon, wal-mart, best buy, etc. are so large that they can't guarantee that the 20 the small shop ordered will get all of them on the release date. Maybe they will only get 10 release day and the other 10 a couple weeks later. I'm sure they did not plan on so many shops in the UK to be selling out and are re-appropriating the supply.
Basically, they're telling them that they may not get all they ordered and that they may piss off customers if they allow pre-orders before they know how many they have in stock. Sounds reasonable and expected for any item with high demand.
