>>12844398You're referring to the "stores always have them" thing, right?
Well, FE:A was different. They've been doing "scarce" releases for a lot of games recently. I had to drive to like, 4 different stores to find Animal Crossing New Leaf, and like 3 different ones when Lego City and Monster Hunter came out.
Pokemon they've always had enough. There's never been a point where someone could just waltz into a store on release day and pick up a Pokemon game. I mean they could pull a scarce release thing but I just don't see it.
