Well, I have just started seeing the commercials for it. Who knows how it will do. I think people might go for it, especially since it is backwards compatible, and it is Nintendo.

And also, Nintendo is supposedly only gonna ship 1 million units so hopefully they ramp up production after hearing this news.

Street date is November 21'st. I know my Gamestop will be getting them in on the 16'th. So if mine is getting them that early, chances are everybody will have them for the 21'st.
