Good performance in UK. This means it did better than Ghost of Tsushima and Final Fantasy VII:Remake which is not too shabby.

But I tought there was supposed to be shortage because one retailer canceled it’s preorders...

Well several sites are out of stock in the UK such as Amazon, which doesn't usually happen with games. So I'd call it a shortage due to limited release.

It’s seems more related to stocks selling fast than limited release.

Well obviously it's both. Limited release is only a problem if the stock sells. The stock sold, so now the limited release is a problem. Still it's not like it's impossible to find, just harder than your usual video game that is available everywhere.

Perhaps this game actually is big enough to be Nintendo's holiday title.
