The majority of that 8m will most certainly be sent out during these next two months. Even if there still ends up being shortages, anyone who wants one can definitely get one with a little effort. |
3DS and WiiU would like to talk to you about lowballed forecasts.

Or do you think a parent will check one time online and give up on getting what their kids want? head out and buy an X1 or PS4 instead? that isn't the way it works. |
Well some parents will buy any videogame independent of what child asked or if it's available. Sometimes price, saler talk, etc.
duduspace11 "Well, since we are estimating costs, Pokemon Red/Blue did cost Nintendo about $50m to make back in 1996"
