I don't think stockpiling the system is such a good idea. Because of its competitive price, the Wii is more an impulse purchase kind of product, when people want a Wii they should be able to get a Wii, if they don’t the urge might ware off and they might reconsider it and go for a another system instead.
Maybe stockpiling seems like a bad idea for the Christmas season, which seems to start in October since Bush took over America, but it is in fact a great idea. Videogames sell almost as much in the 2-4 months around December as they do the rest of the year, and how they do during the Christmas/Holiday season may determin how the public views them for the rest of the year.

 


"Maybe stockpiling seems like a bad idea for the Christmas season, which seems to start in October since Bush took over America"

Wait...what? Are you implying that since Bush was elected President of America, Christmas starts earlier...?

 


No, I'm implying that since Bush got elected President of America, the dollar was weakened vs every currency and average pay went down. On top I am implying more people buy on credit to which the stock market is also in poor shape(check it out) In addition sales have dropped vastly so stores start holiday promotion much earlier. That's what I'm implying, not placing blame simply using him as a marker for the statement I wasn't going to go deeper into it but that's the basic idea and any news channel will/should tell you basically the same stuff.

 

It was a simple statement meant as satire I'm sad that people don't think before they attack the statement which IS absolutly true. Christmas promotions seem to start 1 month earlier then they used to. I'm seeing back to school stuff in July, never used to see it till August. I saw Christmas displays last year DURING halloween, never used to see them till at least around Thanksgiving...I'm sure there's many factors in this but I'll be damned if a President who uses mass ammounts of money fighting a war isn't at least somewhat of a mark to why the dollar is being devalued(he's borrowing it..)
