All 3DS versions still sold out... Seriously, you would think that Amazon might consider restocking, but they are probably cautious of being left with hardware, following NX release.

I would think it is more of a case that they don't see a repeat of what happened early on in the 3DS life.  Amazon heavily stocked on 3DS hardware, 3DS went slow for awhile, and when they wanted to return the extra stock but NoA didn't accept it with things like the hardware not being in prime condition, so Amazon was left with that stock to sell slowly, and leaded to the Amazon USA-NoA conondrum that leaded to no Nintendo product to be sold directly from Amazon till just recently.  So more than anything they may be trying to not suffer that again, in case that by the time they get stock, the Pokemon GO 3DS hardware boost has slowed down and they end up again with a huge hsipment collecting dust, till atleast November when Sun & Moon releases.
