From the time it was released there have been several people who claimed that the Wii was readily available in North America ...

Some stores had big lineups other stores had none. You live in Japan?

No, but many of these people do:

Every single person who lives in Japan in that thread confirmed a sellout by the second day of sales in their area (most said it sold out immediately -- a few, such as Swerve, said it took over a day). Lots of them have tons of pictures to prove it, too.

Furthermore, Media Create, VGChartz, and Famitsu all report 80-85 percent sell through in 2 days, which puts Wii Fit in the top 2-3 percent of games.

Again: all the evidence we have at our disposal says this is wrong, and I just explained WHY it is wrong. The DQ IV re-sales seem to be right on target, however.

Ok tell Swerve to take pictures of stores where it's sold out. Good luck.
