They only bothered to make around 1.5 million to 2 million of them with the rumor being they didn't want to tie up more assembly lines on Classics that could be used for the Switch instead. Think Nintendo still has the fewest factories working for them out of the Big 3 in terms of gaming stuff.
Also unlike most gaming companies, a limited run by Nintendo almost is always legit in terms of rarity.
