      Amazon lost my copy of mario 3d collection and then had to buy on ebay for 100 and then nintendo made more copies and saw them everywhere after 1 or 2 weeks after release. Then bestbuy messed up preorders online/in store. At this point gamestop is the most reliable and my gamestop only orders enough for preorders. No preorder =no copy. Can't believe gamestop is the most reliable.

      @jongronli1421 Pƙed 24 dny +1

      @@marksapollo With Amazon, it absolutely is a legal/contract issue. Nintendo doesn’t like how Amazon doesn’t take any part of the preorder money immediately upon preorder. Amazon takes preorder money on release of titles, regardless of the media format you’re looking at. Nintendo also has issues with the fact that Amazon starts shipping before the release date, but that also means, since they have their own drivers in areas close to distribution centers, the game can arrive before the official release date. So they’ve got a few issues with the way Amazon does things.
      With Walmart, it’s Walmart making a choice to get butts in the store day one to purchase and shop. Walmart regularly, for day one walk-ins without a preorder, drops the price by about $10 just for day one. Nintendo knows about and allows it, since Walmart is more of a general store that happens to carry games and electronics. It’s good for both businesses, especially since the $10 off is exclusive to day one and just for walk-ins. If you came in day one for a preorder pickup, you’re still paying full price. So again, Walmart is basically just trying to get butts in the store to buy the game and then do shopping. But they’re blaming Nintendo for the switch from preorders and online while trying to play the nice guys by giving 25% off to affected customers’ next online purchase.

    I think there are two possible explanations: 1, there were too many preorders and Nintendo didn't make the required number of cartridges - 2, Nintendo is arguing with online retailers about money, they either believe that Amazon etc is taking too big a cut, or Amazon / Walmart are trying to press for a bigger cut, and Nintendo withdrew their business. Still, with Nintendo, it could be anything really :)

    In terms of Walmart, Nintendo has allowed Walmart in the past to have titles launch at a lower price just for day one walk-ins, usually about $10 less. And preorders and online orders might limit foot traffic where people can come in and possibly do more shopping when picking up the game.
    So it could be Walmart trying to get more butts in the door while punting the blame to Nintendo and playing the good guys by giving a 25% off coupon.

    • @jongronli1421
      @jongronli1421 Pƙed 25 dny

      @@Laz3rCat95 That’s store policy issue that Nintendo has been butting heads with them over for a while. It’s actually why most current first party Nintendo games currently available through Amazon are actually available through third party sellers. One issue that they have with Amazon is the fact that the total funds for preorders are actually pulled out at launch. It’s how Amazon handles basically any preorder whether we’re talking games, movies, books, or audiobooks. Every other retailer takes either a portion or the full amount at the moment of preorder, whether you’re doing it in store or or online. So basically, they want Amazon to handle first party Nintendo games the same way any other retailer does. And that was bound to blow up eventually.

    • @jongronli1421
      @jongronli1421 Pƙed 24 dny

      @@Laz3rCat95 Another reason for Nintendo’s issues with Amazon. They start shipping before the release date. I mean every retailer with online shopping and a shipping option does that, but not everyone has their own fleet of drivers. So with Amazon, there’s a higher chance of the street date being broken.

    You touched on this briefly, but to me the answer is clear: Nintendo wants to direct sales to the eShop or their own website. We're in a year where Nintendo is trying to maximize profits when they may not have a major tentpole title or a new console. If Nintendo can sell it on the eShop or their website, they'll get an extra $20ish dollars from the sale instead of the store getting their margin. They need the games on store shelf to maximize sales, but if someone saw that their pre-order coming by mail was cancelled and they had to go into the store to pick it up (where it could be potentially sold out), I would bet the customer would be more likely to give up and just download it from the eShop. I know I'll put in the effort to go pick up a physical copy, but downloading from the eShop is just so dang convenient.

    Here is the real skinny. Amazon and Walmart online both allow anyone to sell on their platforms. Therefore basically resellers. If you’ve ever ordered from these sources, you know you might get a game from a different region than the one shown. This angers people. The preorder from Amazon was from a third party seller, I can’t speak if Walmart was the same. No company should allow third party sellers to avoid liability, this is a đŸ’© capitalistic move. I’m glad Nintendo is taking this stand.

    For one before you make a video do research. For one what happened with Amazon is Nintendo doesn’t like that Amazon wants more money and with Walmart is really Walmart fault because their online hasn’t been update so bots don’t over buy so Nintendo told them no. So before you make a video saying Nintendo is being Nintendo true but research before you talk bad. 😅
