The demand for Wiiu has been much higher than the 360 at launch.

I really can't see how that can be the case.  The 360 was completely unavailable in most areas of the US until the Spring of 06, and it was selling for a couple of hundred dollars at least over its retail price on ebay.  Wii U is available in about any store you walk into and it's selling for $25 to $50 less than its retail price on ebay.

or it could just be that theirs is plenty of stock for the wii u. nintendo stated they did not want to repeat the shortages of the wii. look up super chunks thread on the wii u launch vs other launches. maybe after ms had sold less than 30 mil of the original xbox they didnt expect to pick up as quick and didnt ship enough.

all we know for certain is that the wii u is currently selling faster than the xbox 360 did in the same time period.
