Eventhought i can understand the shortages trick i don't know if this is the best way to hype your console. Remember that 360 is dead in Japan, so any momentum gained by the realease of Tales will be probably lost in 2 weeks. lets say that there were shortages when Namco released Tales Of Symphonia on Gamecube. Would this factor increase the hype/sales for Gamecube? I don't think so. If a console is dead in a region for 3 years then a shortages trick doesn't do any good or any difference in my opinion. This kind of trick works when the demand is by the hundrends of thousands.
