Quoted from Concretehardt:JMHO but if JJP increases the amount of CE’s they will end up not having needed to do it. They will have some buyers drop out as they will be pissed and others will jump in, but in the end they would probably still sell 500+- of them. I do think that they are biting the hand that feeds them in the future if they increased the CE’s on this title, as no one would rush to buy the next CE if the game was hot and sold out knowing JJP would just make more. There would be no need blindly plunk down 12.5k on a game you have never played out of fear you would miss out.
JJP will bank $6,250,000 off of the 500 CE’s and that’s a lot of cheddar, this is a huge win for them... Jack you deserve this!.. now take some of those profits and get some cartwheel lessons.
500 is the right number on this one. I still have a feeling that everyone that wants one will get one when all is said and done. The mistake JJP makes is not running their CE's first when the hype is at its peak. Didn't it take them like 6 months to get their Wonka LE's on the line which killed the demand? Hopefully on GNR CE they can get everyone their games in the first couple months. The other thing is that hardly anyone has played the game. The game does look sexy as hell but will the gameplay/rules live up to the price tag? I know I haven't been this excited to play a game in a long time and hope that it plays as great as it looks!
