Trying to buy the Nintendo Classic Mini NES from EB Games this week has, to put it mildly, a nightmare. And earlier this afternoon, EB Games published a statement outlining precisely why.
After their website crashed on Monday, EB announced they were increasing server capacity to handle up to 60,000 requests at once. They thought, at the time, that would be sufficient to handle the excessive demand for Nintendo's mini console.
Plainly, it wasn't. And in a statement published on Twitter, EB explained that they had over 7.5 million page views yesterday - a day when they would ordinarily have around 500,000.
EB Games 周二公开表示由于周一的访问用户突然达到750万，大大超出平时约50万访问量而导致服务器停摆。原因是大量玩家急切需要购买mini NES.而EB 表示由于需求超出预期，老任产量不足，今年内都没有办法出货。
