Nintendo, let's talk for a moment, for some reason you decide that the NES classic edition should be very limited stocks online and in local stores mostly in single digits and also not letting it be pre orderable till the DAY IT CAME OUT.
Nintendo, I thought you learn from this after the whole amiibo thing happen when they came out.
you could make an argument that Nintendo did this to see if it sells well so they make limit stocks and is worried it might not sell well but to me that's complete bullshit because it was high demands and Nintendo KNEW that a lot of people want it so they should make lots of copies of the NESCE.
for people saying that this is a smart business practice to under stock I have to say that whole thing is bullshit and here's why.
1. Nintendo won't make money off from scalpers so it'll hurt Nintendo in the end espessuly when scalpers sells it for over 100 times the amount.
2. There are people that played the NES as children and they do want it to re live the memories or share it with their kids and the scalpers are sucking the fun out of everyone.
so I went to Meijer and asked then how many they had in stock when the NESCE came out, and take a guess how many they had in stock at the time.
3
3 in stock for every Meijer.
that happen when the Wii came out (back then it was $250) and it took me 6 months after the release to FINALY get it and I do thank mom for picking it up when it was available.
and then the Wii U happen and I did pay 20 to 30 dollars more then the release price but at least I didn't pay over twice the amount.
and then we had amiibos or DLC figures you can call it people mostly ordered over 20 amiibos of villager, wii fit trainer, and marth and hell one person order 100 amiibos of Rosalina. and it took Nintendo months to restock on the amiibos and scalpers are said since they're high on stock all the time and that good.
so who knows how long it'll take for Nintendo to restock on the NESCE maybe before black Friday or Xmas but if they understock again for the holidays people will get fed up and go, "Fuck it I don't want to get this no more" and It'll hurt Nintendo's business.
also if Nintendo does this with the Nintendo switch I'll be pissed off and be done with Nintendo all together.
