The first shipment was always going to be gone because of the precedent set by the NES Classic. You have scalpers who were out in full force and you had scared consumers worried they wouldn't get one like the NES Classic.
If Nintendo keeps steady shipments coming, then there shouldn't be as much of a problem. That said the demand for this thing likely outpaces every system this holiday -- Switch included.
I think they should consider having full size retro consoles at some point in the future too.
