  Sonuva...damnit, I'm going to run out tomorrow and try to reserve it. It's big in Japan, but just as big if not bigger in America.

  Huge delays and mass shortages for Brawl, Nintendo REALLY isn't doing well. You'd think with the Wii shortages they'd have learned a lesson.

  Glad the store I pre-ordered at is not a popular store.

    That might actually be a bad thing. Nintendo are sending bigger shipments to popular stores, and smaller shipments to less-popular stores.
    Some of the less popular stores might be lucky to get over 50 copies sent to them.
    
    
    This really wasn't well planned on Nintendo's behalf. The fact that they have created such a small amount of copies of the game is really quite ... pathetic!

  This is sad for any video game company, but I never expected Nintendo to find themselves in such a position. It looks like I'll be making a quick trip to Amazon.com in about 15 minutes to try and reserve a copy of the game.

  Great. I wonder how long it'll be before people who didn't pre-order (such as myself) to get the game. You would think Nintendo knew better by now...

  This *bleep*ing sucks. I had it preordered for the December 3rd release, then when that got delayed, I shifted my preorder to a different game. I figured I'd preorder Brawl again later, but I've never had the time. I'll try and swing by Gamestop today and preorder it before it's not possible anymore.

  Well, I went to Gamestop today and preordered it. I said something about shortages and if there was a possibility about me not getting my preordered copy right away, and they said they hadn't heard anything yet and to assume I'll be getting it on time. So I'm hoping.

  For all of you who preordered in the U.S., this country is so, so much bigger than Japan, and I'm hoping Nintendo realizes this and will plan the manufacturing accordingly.

  Lol. Nintendo is just milking you saps now. They KNOW people want this stuff, yet they can't handle demand, time for them to put some of that money into manufacturing.

    You do understand that with the fact that your town isn't big on games to any degree, it can easily equal that your town will not get a single copy for a very long time.

  black doom | January 27, 2008
  I wonder what has caused these shortages...
  
  Well it certainly is one way to generate some extra hype. Not that Brawl really needs any but the semi causal gamer who play games because there peers do not seem to not know that much about Nintendo, making Brawl's popularity among the truly game obsessed Wii owners clear by this method throughout the world would be a stroke of genius.
  
  But I really hope Nintendo aren't using that evil genius kind of move.

  Only 30,000.... That is ridiculous!
  
  I can't believe that Nintendo, or any gaming company for that matter would have this problem. Especially with a game that is highly anticipated.

  20+ Million Wii's purchased at present. 30,000 copies of Brawl for launch... This would be why there is no release date for PAL territories yet...
  
  This will definitely be messy.

  30,000 copies may be bad for Japan, but that number certainly DOES NOT CUT IT in America. Nintendo is gonna need at least 500,000 copies ready for the North American release.
