| HappySqurriel said: The "Under-supply" conspiracy comes from 1 system Nintendo launched that saw significant supply restrictions, and even with this limited supply it was still the fastest selling game console for the 2 years it was sold out. The funny thing is that the analysts who claim Nintendo should have been manufacturing far more systems to prevent this limited supply are the same analysts who expected the lifetime sales of the Wii to be below its first year sales. |
Very well put, the guys who are saying nintendo limited supply would have produced far fewer units if they had been in charge. Coming off a console that sold just north of 20 million, no one was expecting the wii to sell like it did for the first two years, especially not the analysts who now claim nintendo manages supply to create demand. If that is their strategy, it sure didn't work with the 3DS as someone else already pointed out.
