It can't possibly be made there. There's no room for all the Wiis sitting around. Nintendo is throttling Wii supply to create and sustain high demand, and perception of high demand. This seems stupid or inaccurate, considering games console manufacturers make money off first-party games or third-party games licensed via the console maker, while losing money on each console. Any games console manufacturer should want as many consoles in the hands of consumers as possible so they will buy games so the console manufacturer can make money.
Except Nintendo. Nintendo makes a tidy profit on hardware, for a long time, I think perhaps since their first console.
haha true. Amazon wouldn't do anything like this as they just lose out as they couldn't sell the books for it.
Will be interesting to see what happens when Amazon releases numbers for units/books/newpapers sold. will probably change its' tune then. MWSF 2009? Or someone will find hidden stuff related to book/newspaper sales in iTunes.
