wooks63 Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 The trouble with this news, if it's true, is I can see the following happening. When the PS3 and Wii launch in the States, Sony will be boasting/bragging about how more popular their console is than the Wii because shops have sold out, whereas Wii's will still be on the shelves. Also, all the tabloids will have massive headlines about it (probably paid for by Sony) and they'll conveniently ignore the real reason.
Nintendork Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Sony has no influence on the news media. They're not like Fox. However the tabloids in the UK have been giving huge props to Nintendo, especially the Sun. Many major newspapers consider Sony to be the coolest console because of the marketing.
DiemetriX Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 I don't need any games if it launches early. Just give me the wii!
raven_blade2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I hope they produce enough Wii-motes and Nunchuks. Im gonna need extra.
Owen Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I hope they produce enough Wii-motes and Nunchuks. Im gonna need extra. This will be the problem. The Wiimotes and nunchucks will be in shortage definately. Preorder these or get to your shop quickly, i can see many familys buying at least 2+ of each. There won't be enough to go round.
Nintendork Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ^ doesn't know that for fact. i think supply is going to be exceptional.. i'm not pre-ordering anything.
raven_blade2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ^ doesn't know that for fact.i think supply is going to be exceptional.. i'm not pre-ordering anything. Risky, risky... By the way I havent preordered yet either. If it was only up to me I would have, but I need to wait a little longer.
ShadowV7 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I still think they will only give out 4 mil by the end of the year,maybe some more if we're lucky.
DCK Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 There's no sense in storing stock like that, sell what you can sell. With these production numbers, I think we may well see a price drop very soon.
Owen Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ^ doesn't know that for fact.i think supply is going to be exceptional.. i'm not pre-ordering anything. I'm just going by what happened to the 360 controllers, cables, other equipment etc... If i'm not mistaken the Wii-Motes are even harder to produce right?
Blue_Ninja0 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 My centiments(sp?) exactly Please give us at least a choice of two colours (white and black) at launch, the black looks too frackin awesome and it works loads better with that blue light in the disc drive I wanted a black one too. For the same reasons you mentioned. Plus, i have a black DS lite.
