there is no way that if people can't find a wii, they would go for a 360 or ps3 for that reason.  well, they might a 360 if what they really are aiming for is video game console with good graphics.  ps3 price is too high.  people buy wii cuz it's cheap and seems fun.  otherwise, they'd rather save their $250 for something else.


not exactly. they spend their $250 for something else. I don't think that nintendo has to up their production as fast as they can, but i'm sure they're losing some potential wii owners because of those supply problems.


 Probably not, only in the short term, in the long term these people will come back to the Wii, especially around the next holidays and when the game library becomes dominant
