Stock piling for Christmas is foolish.

From Nintendo's perspective, it's better to get a sale today than a sale on Christmas.

First person who can figure out why gets a cookie.


 i never meant to imply that nintendo should start stockpiling for next holiday already.  All I meant to say was that if demand slows down a bit (aka not 450k a week sellout) it's not really a big deal because they will want to stockpile some for the holidays.

nintendo said it's going to maintain production levels as is until the end of the fiscal year at which point they will decided if an increase in production is necessary.   nintendo is a conservative company and they'd rather error on the side of short supply than to increase production too quickly.  if they are still sold out as fast as they can produce them expect a production increase so that they can take full advantage of next years holiday.
