More talk of Wii shortages in UK

It’s the same situation around the world (maybe not Japan). The Wii is selling out like crazy. A Nintendo UK spokesperson had this to say…

“The demand for Wii hardware globally has been unprecedented and higher than Nintendo could ever have anticipated. Nintendo is now in a position in which seasonality demand trends are being broken, therefore the demand for Wii hardware is constant throughout the whole year globally. Due to this phenomenon it is possible that the demand for Wii hardware may outstrip supply.”

Nintendo increased their worldwide Wii shipments by 3.5 million in order to keep up with holiday sales. I guess that just isn’t enough though!
