Shitty employers, reserving the good stuff before consumers get a chance, get into the fucking line like the others..I'm afraid that they're all in the eyeshot of a camera. We might open one though, 'cause y'know, we need a display model, right? Besides, one of'em is mine anyways, I figure I might tamper with it before the time is due. Technically it's not outside of the facility, so... is that breaking street date? I don't know, I'm not a lawyer.
For now I'll just play with your emotions, since I have access to a likely shitty console before any of you suckers. ;O;

All sold out Day 1, but partially because Nintendo gave us about a thimble's worth of units.What would you say about general avalibility?

They're creating a false shortage of units to increase demand and maximise pre-orders, they've been doing this for years.Meanwhile, at a Nintendo board meeting:
"Alright, we need to sell as many units as possible!"
"I have an idea, let's manufacture 100 worldwide, then we're guaranteed to sell all of them!"
Hey, at least Nintendo's making a hundred switch consoles worldwide for launch. Compare that to the five NES classics they made at its launch and the other ten that have come out since then.Meanwhile, at a Nintendo board meeting:

Why do you think they sold for as much as they did and people were still happy to grab them? It's obviously done on purpose. If you can't get your hands on a unit, you will pay whatever price you're asked to pay when given the chance.Hey, at least Nintendo's making a hundred switch consoles worldwide for launch.

i remember you alraedy did it onceBut if you want a discussion on the nature of limited runs and artificial shortages, possibly delving into the psychology of the matter I am sure we can oblige.
