Japan doesn't seem to have supply issues. I am not calling the Wii a fad, but fads in Japan tend to have a pretty short lifespan, so demand probably has tapered off some. For instance, the bowling industry in America gets almost all their stuff from the Japanese, who were super crazy about bowling for a few years, but then dropped it like a bad habit.

Plus Nintendo is stationed in Japan, so they probably care a lot about their home turf.

 I don't know, it took the Japanese about 10 years to get sick of the Playstation "fad".
