They will be available for pre-order late this month and a significant amount of additional systems will be shipped to stores. Still no exact date and I don't know what Nintendo's idea of a "significant amount" is, but it's good to hear they're making more nonetheless. |

I have an Amazon alert ready.

Nintendo has no excuse for producing low numbers of the thing after the NES classic debacle, other than they want to keep the media narrative of the hottest toy in town alive. Patently anti consumer, but that's par for the course for Nintendo.

Who cares if Nintendo doesn't make enough?
I think Nintendo is smart for not flooding he market. Keep people thirsty don't drown them. If you could walk into CVS and buy a mini Nintendo it would be so f***ing uncool it would be marketing suicide.

Emulators are great for people but it's obviously not impacted the cost or residual value of their products.
People like to act like they know how to run their business better but it's obvious Nintendo is king of creating the "have to have it" syndrome. I like the fact that things become hard to get and are rare. There are a million other things you walk past in a store because they are readily available and arer like "eh". But you see a Nintendo mini on the shelf and just about s*** your pants. This. This is gold.

They make perfect economic sense when you have a more expensive alternate product that happens to be freely available during the shortage (Switch). Especially since Switch provides continued game sales revenue to Nintendo. The Classic consoles are just a one and done sale.

They make perfect economic sense No, they don't. Under any circumstance. People want thing. There's not enough thing to satisfy all the people who want thing. Profit is lost. This is basic economics. |

Nintendo is classic for having shortages it's how they roll. People complain but they still want it and buy it when they can. Don't like it don't support them that simple. Nintendo is a global company they don't need your support go buy something else with your money.

I have an Amazon alert ready. I have that, Target, Walmart, best buy, and maybe one more. |
|
by the time you get the alert, the item will already be sold out.
only chance to get it is to refresh the page every few seconds. |

Of course the only thing I'd want to buy from Nintendo in the last 20 years is under produced and the available only to people willing to pay top dollar to scalpers.
