First of all, this is my first post/thread, hello!
Now i wanted to get something clear. So Harrison says Nintendo manufactures 1.8 million Wii a month. Let's say they began producing 1.8 mil wii a month since september (it probably began earlier, but let's say september). That means for the period from september to december (4 month) Nintendo produces 4 x 1.8= 7.2 million Wiis.
Now I added the worlwide sales number for Wii using VGChartz data. I started counting from the week ending september 8th until now (week ending september 10th). The ten weeks in between Wii sold 2.472 678 according to VGChartz. Now if we subtract this number from 7.2 mil we have 4 727 322 consoles left for the following seven weeks. I think that's a decent number not?
Or does my reasoning exclude some major factors?
*edit*: For the remaining 7 weeks Wii would have to sell an average of 675 000 systems a week to reach that number. I don't doubt it wiil and probably surpass it slightly, but i don't think Nintendo will fall short of console supply as drastically as so many articles state.
