I don't think they'd put the entire shipment up as available to pre-order. It will be difficult to get one though. |
It's fair to say that the launch would be a failure if pre-orders were the only sales given the marketing push Nintendo has been paying for to raise consumer awareness.
You don't pump a new product line only to have nothing but rain checks at retail on launch.
Limited supply for the floor would arguably be the best situation; I'm just not sure retail outlets will bother putting stock in the locked displays as they will likely cycle through whatever inventory they have before they get the chance.
