Nintendo only shipping 50,000 to the UK on launch day actually sounds about right when you think of the North American launch ...
The UK has (about) 1/5 the population of the USA, Nintendo (probably) shipped about 200,000 to 300,000 on launch day and followed with another sipment later in the week in the United States, and that would mean that per-capita the UK got a similar number of systems on launch day.
