^production rate is not increased/decreased by each months demand, if they could do that then there would never be any supply shortages, so there is no way they would increase it now and decrease it later this year.

Read my reply to you, as I said the minumum realistic expectation is 37.5 million, barring any Wii factory natural disaster anyway.

I didn't say it was in/decreased monthly, all i said is they could and should increase production.

 

Just out of curiosity (for comparison sakes) do you know how many PS3's/360's are produced each month?


 Yet your prediction for the end of year sales was 32-36 million (except you typed 26 by accident)... which totally contradicts your belief that they should increase production now. If demand was only high enough to sell 36 million by the years end then there would have already been signs of slowing, not stock shortages atm, and Nintendo would be planning a production decrease right now.

I think demand wise (at the current price point and with the currently released and announced games) they could sell 45-50 million by the end of the year if there was the right amount of stock. I am hoping the stock problems wll be sorted after this Christmas.... they are almost sorted as of now in Europe and Japan, although Europe will likely have some problems again in December (not to the scale of last year though).
