If Nintendo has a third year of holiday sell-outs, it would probably be better than worse. It's an indicator as to how strong the product is. I don't think any product has ever been a "must have" item that nobody can find for three holiday seasons in a row. Nintendo would be making history. I don't care how much bad press they get for always being out of stock, if Nintendo is in short supply next holiday season, it all but guarantees that they will be more successful than the PS2. No matter how you spin it, "as successful as the PS2 can *not* be a bad thing.
