How is it a failure? If producing more units immediately would've cost so much that it would've resulted in few profits or even losses, you say they should've done it?
And Wii sales have not been low the past several weeks. Two weeks ago it was almost 200k in NA alone. It fluctuates wildly with shipments.
Maybe Nintendo figured that most of the people buying Brawl on day 1 would be the Nintendo fans who already own the system from getting Zelda or Mario, so didn't feel the need to send a HUGE amount of systems this week (it's still almost double last week). I don't recall even a single person here saying they were gonna buy a Wii this week for Brawl but couldn't find one, or any extra special news item saying that there were three times as many people in line for Wii's that morning because they all decided that Brawl was the thing that made them want the system.
