Thanks for this.

So, it could be selling a lot more right now with simple stock management. Reggie should be fired, that's basically NoA's reason to exist.

And once this is fixed it'll be Jan/Feb and demand will be too low to matter.

Electronic department managers at any store ( minus Gamestop and maybe Bestbuy) seem to know very little about games in general. So how would they know what the demand is for certain systems. They will order it, but how much should they order?

I am agreeing. Reggie should be out there with CEO's or whoever he talks to, telling them that demand is up. Selling it! But we have to give him some credit. Have you seen Vita's shelf space in most places? Then look at Wii U's space. Some how he has kept it going and the Wii U has stayed alive because retailers did not dump it's space. Although I give some credit to the Wii for staying kind of relevant. If it's space would have been cut, then the Wii U's would have a well I think.

Plus the 3DS still has two booths in most Walmarts. Target has a nice set up, but will have to do some mixing soon as well, along with Meijer and other retailers it seems. Lots of systems out right now as I have said.

Just work a little harder Reggie...Please!

Yeah people would probably blame the stores but at least for the big retailers, Nintendo should have staff devoted to this kind of messaging.

The obvious/fast solution is to recall the Deluxe models like they did with Basic.
