I think people should wait for next week's numbers before blaaming these sales on shortages.
@kuraobi: Do you actually think Nintendo sacrificed Mario to put more 3rd party games on shelves?
I remember when DQS sold less than expected 1st week in Japan, the same excuses. Retailers don't pull numbers out of their ass, especially for a big game like this, they knew there was some demand...
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
