So, consumer demand counts for nothing?
It's obvious that if they had more Wiis at launch they would have sold more. But it might just be the case for Switch: had they made/shipped more and they would have also sold more. Why? Because the demand is there.
You are also forgetting something else.
Even if Nintendo made a gazillion of them, they wouldn't be able to put them on shelves if stores didn't order them in the first place. And they order based on pre-orders and consumer interest.
The idea that Nintendo decides how many they sell is not really a good idea.
