Hey is anyone else slightly p****d off about this lack of stock with the nintendo wii?i mean come one!! over a week after launch and everyone still out of stock! did nintendo really expect just 50000 to be enough? plus you get those prats who buy like 10 and put em all on ebay! i wish ebay would stop these people!!also shops are no real help. i pretty much went to every store today, asking about it. they all said they DIDNT KNOW when they'll be getting more!! what are they stupid ?? so deliveries just come randomly and unexpectingly to the staff?!?! EVERY DELIVERY IS SCHEDULED, some weeks in advance !!is anyone else really p*****d at this??
i mean, yh i am a nintendo fan and have been for years, but they are starting to annoy me very much. and some stores say the earliets you'll be able to get one is late january/february!!WTF?!
does it take this long to deliver?!But a part of me is thinking that its all just a ploy, and next week a few days before chrismas lots will ship.
Any thoughts

Yes, i was and still am VERY peeved by the lack of stock. Have been a nintendo fan since i was bought a snes at the age of 7, since then have had the n64 and gamecube dispite being told that the ps1/2 was better. I have had every gameboy/ds, and have really stuck by nintendo. I didnt pre-order as i thought
"ah, nintendo are a company that makes games for people, they are not so money grabing as other companies who also make tvs/pc operating systems, they will release enough for the demand..."
How wrong i was, they have turned into the bloody giants that i hate, they are now no better than "EA" and although i still want a wii, i am seriously considering getting a ps3. I will NOT pay stupid prices like those on ebay, and i actually hate all of those sellers who have bought them to sell-some people actually want to PLAY them!!! Furthermore this was going to be the first time i got a console on release day, but as there were so many preorders, when i phone all the shops as they opened on the 8th, everywhere barely had enough for preorders!!!
Sorry for the long response but it really irritates me, if i wait until Feb i may as well get a PS3 in March!
Well my heating has broken down so i am going to have a cold, wii-less christmas-YAY!

I'm making good profit with penny stock. Check here http://trade-pennystock.checkhere.info
Many new investors are lured to the appeal of a penny stock due to the low price and potential for rapid growth which may be as high as several hundred percent in a few days. Similarly, severe loss can occur and many penny stocks lose all of their value in the long term. Accordingly, the SEC warns that penny stocks are high risk investments and new investors should be aware of the risks involved but you can even make very big money. These risks include limited liquidity, lack of financial reporting, and fraud. A penny stock is a common stock that trades for less than $5 a share. While penny stocks generally are quoted over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the Pink Sheets, they may also trade on securities exchanges, including foreign securities exchanges. In addition, penny stocks include the securities of certain private companies with no active trading market. Although a penny stock is said to be "thinly traded," share volumes traded daily can be in the hundreds of millions for a sub-penny stock. Legitimate information on penny stock companies can be difficult to find and a stock can be easily manipulated.

What are you on about. Shops are getting stock in its just as soon as they do it quikly. Even know they know when they are resiveing stock they don't tell us or when they do they add a few days on the end. It is not Nintendos fault but the stores for poor customer service.

It's part of their strategy aint it!!!
They don't ship that many when they're released, so that there will be more demand than supply and everyone is gagging for it.......meaning they can charge a higher price.
After Christmas they'll just sell millions......you'll be able to get one for little cheaper too.
There's a saying in the marketing world "always make one less than you can sell".

Methinks thou should have pre-ordered.
I bought 2. One for me and one for the kids, that way I don't have to share.
