Then you can go argue that out with the CORPORATIONS THAT TRACK 80+% of the retail chains in the UK that sell video game consoles. Like I said, anecdotal data versus hard cold numbers. People are on this board every day talking about what is and isn't happening in the US to because they "Live there" but when NPD says something, most intelligent people tend to listen because they have MUCH more exposure to whats really going on.

So while your personal exp might say the console isn't supply constrained at all, the trackers say that it is, and We are all watching games like Wiiplay fluctuate over 40 spots up and down the charts week in and week out.

Im going to go with what common sense tells me in that case, Supply issues.

Are you really trying to convince me that the Wii (the console), that I see every day on sale in all the major retailers online AND in the high street (with all their big "WII IN STOCK" signs outside), is supply contrained because an analyst told you that? That is the worst argument I have ever heard....

To put this argument to a rest, yes the Wii has supply issues in Europe, but there are nowhere near that big like in the US. Meaning, the shops arn't sold out 2 hours after the shipment arrives, but the shipment doesn't hold til the next arrives. ;)
