Sounds like nonsense. Why would a small store in Italy order 150 units of NES mini and 140 controllers. This isn't Nintendo's next zomg console... And not to mention that you said so yourself there weren't pre-orders avaliable WW... So why would a small store be reserving pre-orders when a) He knows Nintendo has done this previously, b) Orders 150 units based on what exactly? and c) Why would he risk customer dissatisfaction if Nintendo wasn't doing pre-orders?
Also whats even more interesting is that I just called my local ebgames and they said they only got 3 of them... So an eb games store in Canada which is the canadian gamestop gets only 3 but a small video game store in Italy gets 12? I am pretty skeptical...
But even if it were all true, it would continue to be dependent on Nintendo's estimates... Because it is Nintendo who needs to tell the manufacturer how much of each to make and then the manufacturer has to make them and etc. So if Nintendo predicts it is going to sell a blah amount, they will sign a contract with someone who has to meet a certain target by a certain time. I am pretty sure this has to be pre-planned before they officially announce it considering how we have had reports of manufacturers saying they will ship blah amount of say NX before the NX even got officially announced.
So when Nintendo announces it and the demand is higher than expected, they need to get more manufacturers or resign the contract which takes time cause they need more factories and etc. So even if it were all true, it would still be left to Nintendo's estimates and these things aren't made by using magic so they take time to get made and shipped and etc...

A lot of people has been asking for the console. 150 seems about right for a small videogame local where people go to buy videogames.
Nintendo knew that and decided to push this shit. No excuse.

If that's what you want to believe then go for it.
I am more skeptical
