Nintendo probably didn't ship very many copies if it's being sold out at places. Nintendo does this sometimes, even with popular titles. They lack any type of confidence in some things and that stunts the game's sales.

However, I have a feeling this is a limited case.


Nintendo (and any other publisher) ships what retailers order. There is no "undership", there is undervalued demand based on pre-order numbers as that is what retailers use to judge how much to order. In this case, it seems that either the retailer didn't order any of the title or significantly undervalued the demand outside of preorders... which is understandable as its: a niche game, sequel to a poor seller, and a WiiU game.
