Especially if they go looking for a Wii that they can't find. It will definately start cutting into Nintendo's sales as the alternative that is in stock. I have seen it happen with other game systems in the past. Dreamcast picked up sales that Christmas when no one could find a PS2. So did the Sega Genesis when people couldn't find a Super Nintendo.
And like the Sega Genesis, its actually a worth competitor. But it happens, don't expect any of the peripherals to come down in price anytime soon (especailly that HDDs) They got to make back the money some how.
I'm just saying...
