Amazon Japan now has 3DS XL's in the top 20! 7 Colors o.O including regular 3ds and other colors in the top 50!

MH4 having supply issues now, but capcom sent more into stores this week. Are these 3DS sales going to be like this all year now with pokemon's release?

Just to notify, 3ds's were all in the range of 20-60 past week or two. All ofa sudden 7 colors (xl's) jump back into the top 20 today!!!

I don't think nintendo is THAT stupid.

Idk how that makes them stupid...when you have two huge system sellers like Monster Hunter and Pokemon coming out back to back its reasonable to assume there will be some shortages of consoles.  Also Nintendo has to ship extra 3DS units to NA and Europe because they know sales have been decent at best, but when Pokemon comes out sales are gonna skyrocket.  For Japan I'd say the majority of people that want a 3DS already have one and the increase in sales won't be as big as its gonna be in NA/Europe.

Iwata will whip the horses to get dem 3DS in storeshelves !
No worries !

And to think everyone was predicting doom and gloom for 3DS. Sony would love a "failure" like this!

They are stupid indeed. How hard is it for them to photocopy those 3DSes?

I don't think there will be shortages, especially not everywhere.
Maybe in some big stores in big cities.
I live in a less populated area and all stores I've recently visited have 3DS consoles in stock.
