maybe ioi was hedging the wii a bit so he does not overtrack when NPD comes out... but, still..
You can divert hw, you just need to plan it ahead of time. So no, King of Whale Nintendo did not switch Wiis. They made this decision when they delayed brawl because they knew that they were going to be taken NA's allotment. I think we will see REALLY high Japan HW for 2-3 weeks. Expect the same thing to happen in Others when the SSBB comes out in NA.
End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)
Wii- 72 million 3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases
360- 37 million Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak
PS3- 29 million Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut
