I think stockpiling for the holidays is extremely important. They really dropped the ball with the DS Lite last holiday season. The holiday season is by far the most important time for them. For Nintendo it has always been that way. If Nintendo doesn't stockpile there will be huge shortage issues, lots of families missing out on the system. Now it's still not going to be readily available during the holidays, but at least it's not going to take a lot of luck or a super amount of work to find one (hopefully).
