The more supply is available there the better it is for the system.

Whenever supply is out of stock, you have a chance of losing the impulse buy from people just shopping around that maybe weren't really planning to get it. If the store doesn't have it then you let them rethink the decision about getting it later down the line.

The only time its a bad thing to have over-stock is when you are like the Wii U which had no trouble with stock issues...and that caused a backlash in itself.
