Buinesses never work like that. Ever. Nintendo played it safe with the NES and SNES. When they are successful they will make more. Nintendo isnt going to throw a lump of money of a miniature collector console and find out it doesnt sell. How stupid would that be? Did Nintendo know they were going to come across scalpers?  Did they think mini consoles sell? Did the brand come off a decrease with the WiiU?

Nintendo did what any smart buisness would have done and played it safe.

Are they making more Minis? Yes, why because there now is proof that Minis sell.

You missed the part where they discontinued around March or April and stated it was a limited run.  What fan that wanted one and couldn't spot one ever in stock at the stores would be happy with that response?  Basically they released a product which no one could find and then said we are done.  Sorry if you really wanted one.  Now they are backtracking because they know they were in the wrong.  Look I'm not arguing that they were wrong in not being careful on overproducing too much. 

What I am fucking pissed about is their entire handling of the situation.  They can go fuck themselves for how they handled the entire PR situation of the NES Classic.  Reggie can go fuck himself with his bullshit excuses.

Do you know why it got discontinued? Theres alot more to it than Nintendo just pulling the plug and saying good bye to money. Nintendo dont work like that. Sure the PR wasnt the best however what difference does it make if its good PR or bad PR? The situation remains the same. If Nintendo could i am sure they would have easily produced more if they could. Why would they turn down money? Because there are things on the buiness side we dont know about.
