interesting that u didn't mention Super Smash Bros Brawl or Mario Kart, both of which have the potential to claim the #1 best selling game of the year, for the Wii

and how can the bubble already be bursting when the wii is still sold out?

i get 3-4 calls DAILY from a Wii ad on craigslist for 350 from 2 weeks ago...the demand is crazy

u can try to make an argument that the Wii will stop selling out this year despite wii fit/ssbb/mariokart/etc and then we'll call u crazy, but to say the bubble is already bursting is just plain wrong

we can already prove the bubble isn't bursting when it's sold out...maybe change it to predicting the bubble will start bursting next week or anytime in the future, but u can't say it's bursting today when it's sold out today

 

Hi thanks for that reply. Interesting. What I said was "The Nintendo Wii could very well be a bubble that is already bursting. " This is not based on ebay prices or shop inventory. It is based on the buzz and hype going on amongst ordinary everyday people. Before Christmas everyone wanted a Wii and everyone was talking about it. Now they are talking about other things. Nintendo said that they moved the January production into December so stock will still be tight for a while as there is no new inventory till February. The Wii will then be a regular off the shelf item till the end of it's life.

 Oh how you will hate us.
