Square-Enix worried about DS Lite supplies

[alexanderpas]

During a recent shareholder meeting, Square-Enix announced concern over the supplies of DS and DS Lite. Their reason for being concerned? They do not want supplies of the DS or DS Lite to run out when they are coming close to the launch of Final Fantasy III.

They believe that if there are significant system shortages, it will slow down the sales of FF III, a title they are very excited to launch, and believe will have strong sales on the portable. Nintendo has reassured Square-Enix that they are shipping as many units as possible, working to meet the 2 million units supplied each month during the summer period.

Lol, I doubt S-E will ever go bankrupt at the rate at which they're going. :P
Of course though, it's all about the money, yeah yeah @@;
I still think FF3 will sell pretty well, since not that many players got a chance to play it, & a lot of players actually didn't want to play the original because of it's graphics and stuff.

Gah I can't wait for it to be released. My DS is also coming back from Nintendo in a few days (had to ship for repairs).

I don't think Nintendo will have a shortage on DS's anyway. They are selling well, but not THAT well.
