If stock has run out it means it is more popular than Nintendo anticipated, and whilst frustrating for people searching for the game it is better for Nintendo having to re-stock supply rather than have shelves full of a game no one wants.
Considering the game was released with fairly little fanfare I think it can be considered a runaway success.
OK fired it up on the Wii U and played a few online games, here is my findings:
1. Doesn't have the purple boost. 2. Doesn't have the extra item box. 3. Doesn't have the new battle stages. 4. Only 720p on the telly 5. Looks rough on the gamepad streamed at 480p, guess I am used to crisp 720p native handheld now.
In summary, I really don't think you have a clue what you are talking about.
Yes, yes I have hence how I was able to explain the differences between the two. The extra boost and extra item box both make Deluxe feel totally different from the original due to the extra layer of tactics they provide.
You don't seem to be able to comprehend this simple thing.
A half arsed news story just so you can use a headline giving credit to a videogame console made by your favourite videogame company. A man died ffs.
This is pretty tasteless stuff.
Edit: Case in point this guttertrash story resulted in this Superdankgamepla person creating an account just to start ranting about minorities. This is the kind of scum these types of stories attract.
I do remember when the game was first announced a few people saying the devs were wasters and would leave the game to rot as they had done that with other console versions.
People likely choose that bundle because of the game included so of course it should count.
Fifa 20 is included in a lot of Playstation bundles as was Sea of Thieves with Xbox One which is why it jumped up the charts last week. As long as it is properly recorded who cares how the game was purchased?
It is also a good indicator of how a console is selling.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a beast as always but it is Luigi's Mansion 3 sales performance which is the most impressive here. I guess the UK does love the green fella!
Funny thing is if every white character in the game was voiced by a black actor or an actor from another race then everyone would really lose their minds regardless of whether the hired voice actor was best at that role.
The simple fact is that never happens so we don't know.
Interesting you use the word "attacking" which implies my words are causing you harm.
My view has always been that words can cause harm mentally and therefore physically, and is not a nice thing to do but you don't seem to be able to comprehend this.
But I also never said I didn't do it. And at least I can know the damage it can cause, the fact that you don't is.......worrying.
Why are you asking me? You are the self proclaimed expert on the subject.
According to you we can all say what we want racial slur or otherwise, as long as it is not encouraging violence, because mere words do not hurt and if people are hurt or offended by them that is their own fault as they choose to be hurt or offended by them when they could simply choose not to be. That is your logic.
I think you shouldn't insult peope for no reason but I am not perfect and sometimes it is called for. Like if I said you clearly weren't the sharpest tool in the shed and your views are blinkered, short sighted and just stupid.....but you are OK with me saying that so it is all good.
When you are being a muppet as you have been with your views in this article. Something again that according to you I am perfectly entitled to do and your mental well being will just accept.
No insults are not OK, doesn't mean I won't use it when required.
It is still not the same as racist abuse which is what van Basten "joke" could be considered because of its conotations which he would have been well aware of.
You appear to lack empathy. That isn't the same as being offended on someone elses behalf but it is understanding why they would be affected as they are.
I have been insulting you yes but you would have to point out to me where I have used any racial abuse. Your lack of understanding on this point explains a lot.
To answer your question, the scum have been making monkey noises and using other language to describe the black players I will not repeat.
The good fight of not understanding how words can affect mental health?
Look at all those black footballers in tears on pitches around Europe this season for being racially abused by scum. According to Kalmaro they should just get over it and not be affected by it.
How did they "win" exactly? By sticking their fingers in their ears, shouting "lalalala" and not actually listening accepting facts?
If you actually read the comments it is not about people being offended on other peoples behalfs it is about how words can be offensive and words can cause hurt. Something Kalmaro just can't understand for some reason.

Most people will not. I would be surprised if 10% of the market bought it.

What did you win exactly? The people who bought the games didn't give two hoots about you and the rest of the whiners.
Are you now gonna buy the games and the DLC? That will show everyone!
Get a life.

It really annoys you that Ring Fit Adventure has been a success doesn't it?
Right now retailers would be begging Nintendo for more copies of the game.
Re: Random: Nintendo UK Continues To Advertise Ring Fit Adventure Despite Stock Shortages
@YANDMAN
There certainly is in the UK, not just for this game but the Switch console itself (regular not Lite).
A strong Christmas period for Nintendo in the UK it seems.

The reviews on Amazon UK also suggest a big hit.

That is a gross over simplification and missing the point.
Luigi's Mansion 3 is selling more because more people want it, end of.

Yes the Christmas period is notorious for there not being much competition where Luigi's Mansion is currently sitting 5th in the UK chart...

Re: UK Charts: Four Nintendo Switch Exclusives Make It Into The Top Ten
@CodyMKW
Can't imagine what halfwit actually agreed with your post because it saddens me there are two people that wrong.
I own both games and here are the differences in Deluxe:
Much improved battle mode that does not exist in MK8.
The extra boost that does not exist in MK8 and adds another layer to the races
A second item box that does not exist in MK8 and adds another layer of tactics to the races.
When one game has features another game doesn't have, they aren't the same game bud. To argue otherwise makes someone look stupid.
Re: UK Charts: Four Nintendo Switch Exclusives Make It Into The Top Ten

Incorrect. Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe are different games.

Re: Footballing Legend Marco van Basten Is Pulled From FIFA 20 Following Nazi "Joke"

You said: "It is impossible to keep from offending people all the time."
Offensive definition: "causing someone to feel resentful, upset, or annoyed."
You are just confirming words can hurt someone.
Re: Footballing Legend Marco van Basten Is Pulled From FIFA 20 Following Nazi "Joke"

You truly are one of the most blinkered, dumb people I have come across.

Bloody hell you are thick lol.
Re: Footballing Legend Marco van Basten Is Pulled From FIFA 20 Following Nazi "Joke"

You are talking absolute rubbish.
Ever read reports of kids killing themsleves because of the abuse they have recieved either through written or verbal words?
Words can hurt someone mentally which then affects them pyhsically.
