Maybe the answer is simple.. people where tired of standing in line because the ones with a Wii were standing in line already to get SSBB.

I mean, the people who wanted to buy a Wii were discouraged to buy one after they saw the huge lines at the stores at SSBB launch.

If that's not it, maybe Wii Fit is taking too much self space to output more than 100k Wii's a week.

it is possible that Nintendo did not release their elevated stockpile all in one week, they may just do it slowly over the next month.

End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million 3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

maybe Ninty didn't stockpile for the Japan SSBB launch and are stockpiling for NA's SSBB launch and holiday season

You could be right, afterall Nintendo did underestimate SSBB launch by undershipping it.

We'll know next week, if Wii sales stay the same or rise, then probably meant Wii was undershipped last week, if it falls then probably most people who wanted SSBB already owned a Wii

Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
