Good luck with that. This is Nintendo. They're only going to produce twenty units. And half of them will be going to parasitic youtubers and bloggers just to rub it in your face. Can't believe people are still willing to support this company after all the shady and retarded shit they've pulled over the years.
If they put diarrhea in an exploding box people would be lined up around the block just to catch brown shrapnel fly into their faces. If one of their reps walked up to you and punched your grill out, people would say "can I preorder the other fist?"

I think we've already had some great rational discussion on these forums before you arrived about why this is largely a bitter misconception of Nintendo. They're not out to screw anyone over. They're just very fiscally conservative, and that leads to some decisions that can, at times, make it difficult for their consumers. Even very early in their forays into home games with the Famicom and NES they were always aware of Atari's fall during the early crash.
I'm not saying you should like or agree with Nintendo's strategy, but to dismiss it in the colorful manner you did is at best unhelpful to any discussion of the company or their products and at worst a misguided attempt at attention-getting.
I'd put it at attention getting as I don't see him covered in freshly overturned rock dust.
Nintendo has been taking crap for their behavior in the NA market since the latter 80s. There's a popular 15min~ story on youtube that John Stossel did back in the day covering the NES, how hot it was, why people seemed to care, kids draw to it, parents feelings, and also digging at Peter Main about why it was so insidiously nasty trying to get SMB2 and Zelda 2. There were even more paranoid and conservative then being 5 years off of the US/NA market crash so they shorted chips and it made a nightmare for months trying to get those titles.

I suggest you look back at the videogame history of this company. Period on that.
Every discussion needs someone to point out reality. It's not all candy and roses. To turn a blind eye to what they've recently been pulling is just being stubborn and retarded and just being a groupie. So this forum is all about praising everything?
Attention getting my arse. That must be the new trendy and popular thing to call someone when they don't agree with what the sheep say? And what to accuse new members of doing? Got it.
