Why are there shortages in NA then? I'm so confused by Sony's tactics. Are they abandoning the US, the single largest market as a country? It doesn't appear to be supply constrained in other areas, unless we assume that it is and it would have sold 3 billion without constraints. What is going on? Also, man others is really swinging PS3 isn't it? Well, name recognition is pretty important I guess.

Sony is using Nintendo tactics by keeping the market ''thirsty'' in NA

That's a moronic tactic that doesn't work in reality (nor does Nintendo practice it), and it would be especially bad for a console that has a direct competitor which can substitute for most consumers.

it helped Nintendo to have huge holiday sales in 2007/08

Did you happen to notice that they dramatically outdid those holiday seasons at the end of the first year without shortages?

wasnt the 2008 Wii's best year to date?
