Seriously?? Did Wii really sell this little? |
Nintendo couldn't meet demand with the Wii. It was still sold out everywhere 3-4 months after launch.
The console was coming after the Gamecube (itself coming after the N64) so Nintendo didn't expect such a success and consequently didn't produce enough units.
Pre-ordering wasn't as popular back then so Nintendo didn't have as many tools to gauge consumers' interest.
