Nintendo either didnt have enough time to increase Wii production or it is stockpiling for MP3, SSBB, DDR etc. and holiday season coming up. Although, I dont think Nintendo expected Wii to sell this well so they didnt have enough plants, and increasing plant capacity takes time and money. Ask any economist and he/she will tell you that in short-term production you can only increase production slightly (more workers, working for a longer time etc.) but there is a limit to how much you can increase your production, it is only possible in long-term production to increase production by 50% so nintendo just needs more time.
