Generally speaking, I think it's mostly an issue of hindsight being 20/20. Was it necessary? No. Could they spend money to ship units to heavier demand markets? Yes. Should they? Probably not, because that demand is almost universally outstripping demand.

This is a discussion that is involving quite a bit of guesswork in regards to the allocation of Switch units, but the easy way out is to wait until the end of July when Nintendo announces their shipment breakdown by region (Japan, Americas, Others). I am leaning towards the Americas receiving a higher percentage of the total units than in the launch month, but we'll see in 1.5 months.

I agree; people too often seem to think that Nintendo doesn't have an army of marketing and distribution personnel.
