Considering I've seen people buy 3 copies of the Wii Play bundle during the holidays it isn't surprising. Anything Wii related is always sold out during the holidays, so if the base Wii Remote is out of stock people will just buy the Wii Play bundle. Even outside the holidays for the first year or two things could be pretty sparse, so they'd take what they could get. Not to mention it's a pretty easy sell for parents that you get another game for just $10.
