 Recently Nintendo has given GameStop US-exclusive retail items, like the 3DS Circle Pad Pro and Xenoblade Chronicles. It’s possible that this is another Nintendo favor, but it’d be a pretty big one.

This orginally confused me as to why Nintendo would do something like this. But after thinking about it. Gamestop (along with EB Game) reports it sales and chains like Wal-Mart doesn't. So Nintendo probally wants to know the market penetration of certian items probally to give its liscensed developers, and units shiped it just has too much of a grey area, to properly report. Plus Gamestop is the a figurative anti-christ.
