In certain ways, nintendo has some fault in that too, since the stock of MK bundles seems pretty low, in shortage in some areas. Yeah, probably neither the retailers or nintendo really expect a big push, but happened and they were not ready. And considering all the bonuses included on the bundle, maybe they are trying to avoid loses.
There are other problems too, like 3 months between the last exclusive and the next exclusive, the price cut on xbox. Most of us got over it, WiiU not be mainstream.
"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
