Yeah and the launch allocation was a fucking joke. 50,000 in 12 hours is not impressive whatsoever. Nintendo need to stop pissing around with their fake worldwide launch and get their act together. The demand is waaaaaaaay higher and isn' t being met.

How is 50k worldwide launch?

Espeically since UK market is the biggest with Germany behind in europe.

That means europe got like 100-150k units at most.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

The US has already gotten at least 2 shipments since launch, if not more. My friend just got his on friday & that was the second shipment to Game Crazy.

I have a feeling Nintendo will miss its projections like sony. It won' t be as bad but they will probably miss the 4 million. TOo bad. They would have made a killing if they could keep up. 3 million looks more likely now, not bad but not particularly good either.

I hope i' m wrong.
