F’in Whee.

Alright, Nintendo. It’s been what, five months since you launched the Wii, and you can’t f’ing get more than ten units to any given store on any given week, which is enough that they sell out in less than half an hour? Pathetic.

Sure, I understand that it doesn’t really serve you to actually make them available to people who want to buy them. After all, there is a bit of a game drought going on right now. Since you’re not going to have any more games available ’till the holidays, why make them available now, when people will only get bored with the relatively few good games that are out for the thing.

I know you can look at Sony, and see the backlash they’re getting because the PS3’s available just about everywhere. But the backlash isn’t because they have stock available. People LIKE to buy things they want. The backlash is coming from the fact that Sony’s execs have made statements that have made selling out to be a really, really good thing, and they’ve failed to do so. Similarly, you guys said you wanted to have stock to make sure that it gets into people’s hands, and so now, when there are no Wiis to be found, you guys come off as assholes, too.

I mean, you’re not even dealing in components that are hard to make. The Wii’s pretty much all off-the-shelf parts. Get your act together, jackasses.
