Yeah, this is telling a different story:

Interesting that the cheapest "In Stock" listing is not a bundle, yet its $315.. 

Leo, what stores are you going to? (or did you take a stab at how the stock was looking?)

 

Wii supply was looking very healthy for a couple weeks there. But times change, people buy, shipments deplete. Stock was really good and it just got bought up. I'm sure there's more stock lying in wait for Black Friday. So Leo-j isn't way off in asserting that Wii stock is plentiful, he's just a little behind the times.

As for why things sell well on Black Friday, it's the first long weekend of the holiday season in the US. That turns it into orgy of consumerism. People spend like crazy and retailers egg them on to get them to spend at their store with special promotions.
