I have never had an issue getting in demand video games or consoles from Amazon as long as I placed the pre-order. They have a very sophisticated stock system that knows how many units they have and have sold down to a single unit. Having said that, in theory Nintendo could screw them on stock allocation, but I pre-ordered Move, Kinect, the Wii, a DSiXL, etc...from them and never had an issue.
