Forums - Nintendo - Wii In Stock.. Thanks NOA.

There are Wiis everywhere! I thought the day would never come. I went all around town today looking for ToSDotNW and there were Wiis in every single store.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

The odd thing around me is there are no wii's in any of the stores i have been too over the past two weeks, but there have been wii's in stock for the last 6+ months.



Sunday night best buy had their stores open a couple hours after closing for reward zone members and they passed out wii vouchers. Even after everyone left the store there was still a stack of wiis left. I had to return the next day for a pick up and I didn't see any left so I'd be interested in seeing how many wiis would be sold this week as well. Lately I've been seeing more ads for them and this had been the first time I've actually seen the wii sitting in the store (I got mine waiting in line on a sunday morning so I had never actually seen it on the shelf)



“When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down “happy.” They told me I didn’t understand the assignment and I told them they didn’t understand life." - author unknown

Sold out again...that didn't last long.

I saw a guy buy 10 wiis at costco.



Yeah, they still sell out pretty quick. Well I guess it is nice that they are being restocked now nearly daily but they still seem to be selling out. As long as there is that Wii Purchase limit policy note on the item, instead of a financing deal like you find on the PS3 or 360, I think we can assume that there are problems with Amazon keeping them on the shelf to some degree.

I see Wiis in stock often nowadays. I guess there will be no major sell out like last year.

So I was at Best Buy today buying the new Call of Duty and they had a Wii display with like 50 Wiis. I was like wtf? this isn't normal..

Yeah, same with my Best Buy. They had something like 3 different displays overflowing with Wiis. I know at the Target I work at we usually get 4-8 in a shipment but recently we've been getting in around 20. Maybe Nintendo is really starting to pick up the pace in preperation for the holidays.

 



CIHYFS?
