Why do people blame Nintendo for success?
"they hate the gamers"
"there is no excuse for a shortage this late"
"blah blah blah blah"
On a regular forum, I might expect people to be ignorant about the level of demand for the Wii. But here, on VGChartz, on the eve of the Wii becoming the console with the #1 installed base world wide people continue to claim that Nintendo isn't trying.
Many, many people have been predicting a Wii shortage through the holidays. An analyst in February or March said that the Wii would likely experience shortages *through* 2008. Many people in these forums have been wondering if Super Mario Galaxy or Metroid or Smash would increase sales or if the system would simply be sold out. Even if it wasn't, there are literally millions of Smash Brothers fans who'd buy a system just to play that game. A little bird told me Super Mario Galaxy might be big too.
A lot of hopeful people have been suggesting that Nintendo has been stockpiling consoles. That's not likely true. They've never done it before and there's no business sense in doing it.
