I'm probably the only that always thought this was the #1 reason the wiiU failed. Scalpers were in full force thinking it was going to be another Wii type scarcity, and when nintendo churned those suckers out, everybody lost interest.
Thanks for this. I thought my GCU was cancelled because yesterday I went to a bb store and my GCU wasn't applying to a clearance game I wanted, then today with this bundle I was like WTF!! Is going on!
It's bait. Basically they bank on people like us to end up buying something else since we don't want to waste our trip there. 6+ months later, they start another crazy sale, hide the games again and the cycle continues. I realized target was scum since the whole amiibo ordeal.
