How can it possibly have a *forced* shortage when it has shipped far more in any 12 month period than either competitor? And why should it do so when (and continue to do so) when it is clear the demand is now self-perpetuating, and each console "hoarded" is $50 or profit they don't get?

 

People probably think that Nintendo's only way to keep up the strong sales especially after WiiFit and SSMBB(others)releases is to force shortages so that people think there is demand when there is none.

Nah, blaming the Wii's high sales on forced shortages is fanboy damage control, meant to marginalize the Wii console, and expain how the Wii hardware is crushing their favorite machine, imo.

 

Either way, doesn't change the sales figures, so it barely matters. 

 



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
