It's also important to note that the sales are ramping up for the other consoles because of the New Year holiday. However, even with the large increase of buying, the Wii U still slipped ~9K units. So, this isn't really a good thing. Once the shopping frenzy is over, it is going to have a pretty big drop.

Wii U drop suspicious.
I think something's up. It definitely should've increased this week. But it remained steady. I think something's up...
I think Wii U is having supply problems. Not saying it's soldout. But I think model people want (the Premium) is not as widely available as the Basic set. I know Iwata apologized for this in the last Nintendo Direct. But this seems like the situation to me.
Nintendo need to start producing more Premium skus and getting them out of the door. The Basic set seems to be in relatively low demand everywhere.

I highly doubt that. Nintendo has been able to replenish all stock in the US after a week or so of launch. I don't believe there was any serious stock issues in EU. And with all the Nintendo fans saying Nintendo was holding off stock for Japan, hence "low" stock and low sales everywhere else, I would imagine they would have plenty of stock for Japan.

It's also much easier to manage demand for Japan than it is other major countries. It's far more land locked and takes much less time from warehouse to retailer.
