On one hand, if they go all in on something and it flops, the company probably goes out of business. They are super conservative in that regard in that they don't have another branch of the company that can prop them up if that happens like MS and Sony do.
But ya, whoever they have in charge of market demand or whatever is not good at their job.
I read a Regie interview a few weeks back that they thought the only people who would be interested in a NES Classic are people in their 30-40 who sorta remember what a NES was, and determined their stock according. And that if they would to treat it like a proper console launch, they would need to dedicate a factory to just making NES Classics.
