I will run counter to a lot of people here.
I think that the Xbox 360 could be seen as a substitute item if the Wii has a third straight holiday season with limited supplies. This would especially be true if the motion controller and avatar systems come out.
Clerk to potential customer who can't find a Wii:
"How about an Xbox 360? It's cheaper. It has motion. It has avatars -- they are like Miis." Customer -- "OK."
Of course, Nintendo knows this and will make sure it has sufficient supply -- because the only thing that can stop Nintendo at this point is Nintendo itself. And with short supply again it would do just that.
