Look on the thread for some claims that though it would be reasonable to make 30 to ship 25M.

Because sure 1M on the factory for a 20M sales on the year would be acceptable buffer (plus the 2M or so on the shipping channels).

If some product with the shortages could make 100M sales why couldn't Nintendo do more than 10M on their forecast?

Nope not kidding, if you publically announces 30M forecast while intending to only meet like 20M that is a way to manipulate the market and it's a crime.

You really think they are lying seriously? If they have said this, they are obviously trying to make 25-30M. If they only manage to make 15-20M despite of their efforts, its not a crime. As you said, this is not even official PR.

edit. Oh so Nintendo's forecast is 14M, not 10M, so that some misinformation there. Also, lets see.... why cant nintendo do more than 14M? I wonder why....MAYBE CAUSE BIGGER COMPANIES HAVE A BIGGER INFLUENCE AND ITS EASIER FOR THEM TO ACQUIRE PARTS? Dont know whats hard to understand.

If they intend to make 20M and announce 30M that is a lie. If they make plans for 30M and end up selling 20M then it's a honest mistake.

Nintendo initial forecast was 10M that they reviewed up to 14M.

You can think what you want but still none of what happened before and during release showed confidence of selling 30M in a year.
