Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Nintendoland is what Kirby above said, no one want's the deluxe bundle, undershipped. Other than that it would be doing even better this holiday.

^_^ I got mine for 220 new! Walmart special 25 percent discount. In my computer armoire right now. ( damn that word)

Retailers don't want to get burnt twice (maybe 3 times, after last holiday) ordering in too much stock.

I agree. I would be apprehensive as well, but now that there has obviously been a demand since the Zelda bundle, it is time to let go of the brakes and order some since they sell out in hours.

That is how retail goes, you see what is popular and you adjust. I will also say that with so many systems out right now, it is hard to make room. But when the whole Wii section is gone becaue the Mini's and regular bundles are sold out something is wrong. I blame manager's.

with 3 weeks left till xmas day they mighten not bother, demand will drop after the holidays and it'll be back to normal.

Another day, another thread on why the Wii U isn't selling well and blaming it on everything but the fact that people aren't interested. Vita fans have accepted this, why can't Wii U fans?
