| PS3owner said: I'm just screwing with you Nintendo fans, but with that stuff aside i still don't see how Nintendo cannot boost sales to meet demand. Is it really that hard to boost sales after 8months on the shelf. Is there some sort of special device that they can't keep in supply or what? |
I'm a Nintendo fan and I agree that this is ridiculous. Speaking as the poor sorry asshole who spent months Wii-hunting for friends, Nintendo can't produce worth crap.
Last December, along with the Wii being sold out, do you realize the DSL was also sold out everywhere, and Nintendo had an 8 month head start with it to ramp up manufacturing?
Nintendo has no clue how to produce enough hardware, period. It might be because they're so unused to selling a product that people actually want, but if the Wii still can't stay on shelves for two years in a row, then it's not JUST demand, it's incompetence.
"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks
