The word Surplus already denotes a lack of shortage.

Tell me you missed the point of my comment without telling me you missed the point of my comment.

Surplus just means more than is needed. Lack of shortage does not mean more than is needed. It can mean a number of things, and in this case, it means that scalpers didn't manufacture a shortage, which is news because last time they did.

But to me it implies they are making consoles that would never be sold.
