‘Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate’ Demand Far Exceeding Supply
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate has been so popular since it hit store shelves that most people cannot find it on their local store shelves anymore. The exclusive Nintendo release, for both the 3DS and the Wii U has been so popular that Nintendo has actually had to release an apology for not having enough copies available.
The game has actually been credited for having a large role in the rebounding of sales figures for the Wii U which has had disappointing numbers since it hit the market.
Whatever the reason for the company being off on what they thought the game would do sales wise, the company has to be happy that it has had such brisk sales numbers.
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate will have a new stock next week for the Wii U and it seems likely that this time Nintendo won’t be releasing so few copies that they have to apologize again.
The 3DS version of the game will also be back on store shelves in Mid-April. The company has been doing damage control mainly because it simply can’t run into another nightmare where its fans start to lose faith that it knows what its doing.
Instead, Nintendo would like to be able to actually take advantage of one of their games being so popular, bu it is hard to do that if you are having to say you are sorry that you don’t have enough copies available for everyone who wants them.
While the company went through a modest advertising campaign, its safe to say they simply didn’t expect a game that had a following only among those who favored their consoles to sell quite this well.
That is just the latest good news for a company that has been looking for good news since the Holiday shopping season last year.
