Stock piling and diverted stocks to US. Why is this not so obvious to those of you prophesizing doom? Oh that's right, because you put blinders on and enjoy spreading FUD when the truth is ready to trout slap the blinders off your head.


School started.
Holiday over.
Annual slow period.
Diverted stock to US.
Stockpiling for global holidays.



Go ahead, pick your blinders up off the ground and put them back on, we all know you're going to anyway.

Bullshit. You suggest that people didn't pick consoles up because there wasn't enough units. It's a nonsense. According to y-koron Wii is pretty easy to buy in Japan right now. No doom - just slowdown - an effect of few reasons you've listed above this crap about US and Stockpiling... Do you really believe that Nintendo would move so much units off the shelves? They stockpiling maybe 20k a week. Not 70k. It's insane. You will accept everything but slowdown. All market in Japan is losing steam right now... Wii isn't an exception.

What did I just say? I gave you 3....count them 1, 2, 3 reasons for actual physical slowdown on top of diverted units and stockpiling.

If you look at actual global sales, you'll see that US stocks are up a little. It's also well known that every electronics company on the planet stock piles for the holidays.

 

75k average sales in Japan. A drop of 45k, not 70k like you claimed being the weekly differential. 20k units diverted to the US and 25k being stockpiled.....that's 45k right there.

 

So now I've mathmetically shown you how the drop can be attributed, I'm still accepting the drop to come from the other 3 options I gave. So I'm willing to accept it's slowed down due to the circumstances I gave. Are you willing to accept the circumstances I just presented or do you want to continue to look for anything and everything you can to negatively direct towards Wii?
