Forums - Sales - Wii Mega Shortage Confirmed

Yea the whole reason there are low Wii, and DS sales are because of the shipping problems, they can't sell them if they don't exist.

Add me for Pokemon, New Leaf, and Fire Emblem, Mario Kart 8.

I think it's cause they are holding them for people with vouchers.



If they did released 20 million all at once that would be insane.




Nintendo still doomed?

Congrats for the prediction, you earn a cookie...



I think I've said in some other thread sometime ago. They should have increased production around March, hopefully early March or a bit sooner.

The delay of SSBB sort of hint at that, by a long stretch.



It's a result of both Nintendo and stores flushing their supply chains to get as many consoles into stores before Christmas as possible. Normally it takes weeks for a console to travel from the factory to a store shelf, but they paid more to make it happen faster. Essentially they sold Wiis that would have been sold in January in December.

The supply chain should be back to normal some time in February.

Nintendo should not ship any wii's at all and keep them at warehouse until the'yve made 10 million by September they release all of them at one time to see what happens with sales.

That has gotta be the single stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life, congratulations leo!


I bet Eurodollarpounds that you are wrong.



Hey why not have Sony hold all PS3s till September? Then we could see what happens! :rollseyes:
