Yes yes yes... it's a good problem to have in the grand scheme of things.
But there's no getting around the fact that Nintendo would make a crapload more money if they could get product on the shelves. And with respect to the hindsight is 20/20 comment. It doesn't take much foresight to understand that they needed a heck of a lot more then 1.8 million units a month for the holiday season.
How many other companies have not been able to keep product in stock for over a year? You can rationalize "unprecedented demand" all you want, it's still poor business management.
