If it is supply issues please inform me however last weeks surge in sales and Europes Double-NA wii sales tell me it is not an isue of supply as it has been resolved lat week when wii sales rose signifficantly. So why is this week so poor for the wii in NA?

I'll say this, and leave it.

 

The Wii arrives on a boat. Supply is contrainted worldwide, at 1.8 million a month. Sometimes, one place gets more shipments than another. It happens all the time. Sometimes, the NA Wii shipments will be 40 or 60k one week, and 160k the next week. There are ebbs and flows when sales are totally dependant on the supply, which ISNT constant, and ISNT relative to the amounts of consoles other regions recieve in that particular week. NA doesn't have a stockpile of 60k Wii's setting on the shelves unsold. The consoles are made week by week, and some of NA and some of EU supply went to Japan this week. Shipping and console supply to different regions can actually be determined before they are created, as Nintendo knew when Brawl was coming out, for a while.

 

I hope this answers your question, however, since I'm sure 20 or so people said that too you before I did, and you didn't listen then, it makes me wonder why I even bothered.



I don't need your console war.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
