Just that games don't happen overnight. Like I was saying in other threads, we won't really see results of this resource shift for at least 6-8 months. But, on the other hand, this means that x-mas '07 will have an interesting line up for the Wii. If Nintendo solves the manufacturing problem, I can imagine the Wii moving up to 5 million units in the Americas alone and 3+ million in Europe in the Holiday '07 (Nov-Dec) frame. OTOH, that's the upper limit if there is supply and insanely great lineup. 3.3-3.7M in Americas and 2.1-2.5M in Europe is more realistic. Japan won't be impacted as much because Japan never betted against Nintendo, so there will not be as much of a shift towards the Wii. But it's still will sell better because there will be less supply constraint. So, Wii will sell a better in Nov-Dec '07 than '06, but not insanely so. Probably to the tune of 1.5M - 1.8M.
