It wouldn't make any sense for them not to do a 2nd print. Probably not until January but there is some demand for the game.
Did places like target or Walmart get copies too?
Yeah it was over the weekend that word got out that there were only a few thousand copies produced and the scalping machine started working.
The scarcity of it is, much like amiibos, all due to people buying up stock to resell at a higher price because they have more time than money and people buying from those sellers because they have more money than sense.
Also the game is freely available digitally for $60 and the disc version doesn't include a manual or anything anyway.
And just like amiibos there will be loads of them pushed out to stores eventually and the price will go back down.
There is almost no reason for Nintendo to not print another 5-7 thousand copies. It costs almost nothing to manufacture a disc and case.
I might just get it digitally but I'll wait through February or so to see if more show up. I like having physical games.
If producing a couple of thousand copies were no big deal to Nintendo of America then we would have gotten a physical release of Fatal Frame.
Also Pikmin 3 has more than a few thousand of copies of demand and has been out of stock for over a year.
