Again I ask, what Japanese retailer is going to want to order a big shipment of Labo for the holidays when it can't even move its initial shipment?

At that point Smash or Pokemon or Animal Crossing or Fire Emblem or whatever is going to be the thing to get for Xmas. I just don't understand where this mindset of "oh sure, it'll have middling sales for 6 months, but then it's gonna skyrocket just watch". People say that it's like toys, but they don't understand that toys don't require a $300 purchase to go along with the toy.

I think you're taking this way too seriously. Labo is doing just fine
