Didn't watch, but anyone saying intentional low stock is stupid.
The Wii was an insane surprise to everyone. Anyone would be low stocked for that. Add onto the fact it followed the Gamecube's low sales, it's no wonder the Wii was conservatively produced.
Same situation here. Look at the Wii U numbers. Do you really expect Nintendo to have like 10 million ready on day 1? They have no idea how this system will sell, and don't want ot risk financial ruin by making some insane number that never sells.
And that's not even getting into the actual financial real business world logistics of having large inventories on stock being not liked by companies and investors. And other factors that determine things.
