Since the days of Operation Rainfall......I have no idea. It is like they have a different demo tracking system. THey do not read the internet postings anywhere. They ask some random group of people if they want something. That group seems to say no, and then they make 100 copies. So we get limited Xenoblade Chronicles copies, amiibos, Devils Third ( awesome online multiplater by the way!!!) and no this.
I do not get it. |
its quite simple, they're aware that people are buying that specific bundle FOR Splatoon, because of Splatoon, and figure that they might as well discontinue the bundle since people in Japan will mostly likely buy another Wii U Bundle and then Splatoon as solo software if they want to play it
essentially Splatoon's popularity has made it irrelevant as bundle in Japan. you bundle a game generally to push sales and sometimes take a loss on that particular software to do that
Nintendo realizes that Japan fans will buy a different bundle and buy Splatoon as well anyway
sometimes thats how things work out. if Nintendo has a load of other bundles in inventory still then obviously it would make sense that they would attempt to push those instead of making more Splatoon bundles. you don't want excess extra bundles that are less desirable laying around, especially if you're doing well with the platform (at least in Japan)
