Now that we have decided to get our kids a Wii Nintendo game console, we can't find any, anywhere. Why is this so hard to find? I mean, why is Nintendo making so few of these? As far as I know, they don't have production problems, like Sony had with they Blue-Ray lasers for their PS3. So what's going on? Are they selling so many of these that even if they ship thousands per week, it's still not enough? Well, maybe it is the case. And I haven't been reading every piece of news about the Wii that's out there, so there probably is much more to this. I just hope it's not a marketing "tactic" to create some frenzy about getting the console, and that they have tons of them just waiting in a warehouse somewhere...
The kids have been nice, they have been patient, and now it just breaks my heart not being able to make them a surprise. I would have liked to offer them the Wii in time for the March break, but that did not happen. And on top of that, CRA (the Canada Revenue Agency) is having system problems, and there will be delays for processing the tax returns, so I will not be getting my return as soon as expected. Although I can probably find the credit to buy the Wii, but it still sucks...

As we are a lower market than the US, we normally get 10% of the allotment for each shipment.
Put that on top that the demand for the Wii is still higher than the supply and you get no Wii anywhere.
Glad you found one. Hope you can get it before the weekend.
Thanks for the encouragment. As you already know, I found my Wii!!!!! YAY!!!! (see my next Blog post)
