Nintendo apologizes for Ring Fit Adventure stock shortages in Japan; promises increased shipments by the end of the year
Posted on 4 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Ring Fit Adventure has proven to be a bit of a phenomenon, especially in Japan. The game has been consistently selling in the 5-digit figures every week since its release with barely a drop-off, which is impressive since typically most games send to sell the most on release date, then drop off fairly quickly. Sales for Ring Fit Adventure could have been even higher though, as there have been multiple reports of stock shortages in many stores in Japan. Today, Nintendo has acknowledged and apologized for these stock shortages. The company promises to ship more copies each week, and will increase shipment numbers towards the end of the year.

Hello, my Norman Reeduses and Freaky Fetuses! This week on NEP, we celebrate Terry Bogard’s debut in Smash with lots of creativity flowing; we muse on ideas for licensed anime games like Food Wars Shokugeki no Soma, Trigun, Sailor Moon… We also kick the show off with some chat about general media—I promise there’s structure to this show. Galen talks his captivation with Luigi’s Mansion 3, Oni Dino is charmed by Destiny Connect, and general banter continues. “C’mon!”
