Ummm...it would actually be worse if Gamestop pulled preorders because of something else.
Notice he doesn't say "Gamestop has stopped preorders because they are sold out". That would've been a terrific opportunity to spin some PR.
The fact is, Gamestop has systematically stopped preorders.
You don't stop preorders. You keep them coming, and you ask for more. In turn, MS releases a report saying they are increasing their projections, just like Sony did, and up production.
If there are no problems with production, and gamestop has stopped taking preorders, and production hasn't increased, then yes, there is a bigger problem than low yields....in theory anyway.

Rumors are pointing to low yields though...twitter isn't exactly considered official.

 

As an anecdote, last night walking home, I got an email on my phone from gamestop telling me to preorder a ps4. No mention of xone.


They didn't stop taking pre orders online even after their 8AM site update. SO again there are no issues. The thing is Their online bundles are no longer Day One SKU's. So like I said it is most likely their Day One SKU being pulled only to eventually be replaced with a regualr SKU.

If there was a supply issue or bickering going back anf forth the SKU's online ould be pulled.
