Dodece, the only place I disagree with your last post is on "initial demand." While it's true that sales have never slowed down or so much as batted an eyelash with huge game releases and price cuts from the competition, I don't think everyone who's buying a Wii today is buying it for Wii Sports and Twilight Princess. Other games have been released and will be released during the holidays, which have created additional demand beyond what existed at launch. Word of mouth has also created additional demand -- as more and more Wiis get out there, people have their friends over and play, and that creates more demand.
The question is whether new demand is being created at a faster or slower rate than product shipments. My guess is the latter, but not by much. Mario Galaxy and other holiday titles could change that, and titles launching early next year could keep the wave going even further. Still, I agree that at some point, supply will catch up, and sales will decrease.
