Anyone that thinks Nintendo is deliberately withholding supply to release at a time when it is guaranteed to generate free publicity must be a fanboy idiot. The fact that the Wii sold a record-breaking 400,000 units during the week it's rivals biggest game was released, when it only sold 75,000 the week before, is purely a coincidence.
Those fanboy idiots probably think that when home shopping channels say an item is in "limited supply" it is just a tried and tested technique that has been repeatedly proven to increase sales.
Besides, why would Nintendo want to stimulate consumer demand by using effective sales tactics that would be, and have been, employed by numerous other companies? They're not in this business for money, they're in it because they love us.
