[QUOTE="Big_Greg"Ok they refute it but do you honestly believe theyre telling the truth? ALL consoles since the beginning of gaming have been holding out to increase demand, the Wii is very cheap to produce so theres no reason as to why theyre hard to find.

6 million in less than 5 months means its very unlikely that they are holding out

[QUOTE="ChiChiMonKilla"]I agree the wii is trash but if it sells then it will get games because this is a business and at the end of the day sales are what count more than graphics. So devs will port some crap over that uses the wii-mote to make a buck not because they like it.AvinashTyagi
No they'll be getting the games, and PS3 and 360 will get the ports, or droughts, because Wii dev costs are much cheaper, and the sales will be higher, especially in Japan, the devs will refocus for the Wii if they want to sell

This guy knows what hes talking about. Cant wait for RE4 on Wii :lol:  How will PS3 and 360 have the most droughts? They have the most diverse 3rd party support.  Not to mention...Wii has only had one game score 8.0+ since November 19th...id say thats a drought right from the start.

[QUOTE="jedigemini"]Cows and Lems are too busy arguing over the minor differences in graphics in their consoles to notice that the Wii is stealing this gen right from under their noses. Big_Greg

Nintendo isn't stealing anything, I think now people are starting to notice that the Wii isn't all its hyped up to be. I had my Wii since launch and I havn't played it since January :|. Nintendo even admitted holding back on shipment to keep the demand for it high because once the general public sees too much of something they automatically figure no one wants so, yeah the Wii sucks for now.

I want to see a link, I am calling your bluff.

I have a link a few posts up but they dont admit, Gamestop just called them out on it and they refuted it. Obviously its true though.

Why? What's so obvious about it?

Right now they have the support due to games that were started before the Wii was launched, that's going to change, because Devs first and foremost are about money, and Wii is where they can make the money, Devs are currently just catching up to supporting the Wii, you'll see the support rise, recent announcements support that

It's our second "Nintendo holding back Wii shipments until April 1st" conspiracy theory of the day! This time, it's for a completely different reason.

GameStop's COO Dan DeMatteo posited that since Nintendo has met their sales goal for this fiscal year, they're putting off the next shipment until the next year starts, which is April 1st. DeMatteo expects to see Wii supplies pick up right about then. We hope he's right! Not necessarily about the conspiracy thing, but about the increase in Wii shipments. The 1st isn't that far away!

No, YOU learn to read. :roll:

Big_Greg

The first of your links is a rumor that Wal-Mart is building up its own stock of Wiis for a big push soon, not that Nintendo is witholding them. Then you link the same speculation by that Gamestop manager three times, reported by different sites. That is hardly proof of anything. And considering that I don't think anyone here knows much about what goes into producing and shipping Wiis, and what Nintendo's capacity is currently, nothing is anything more than speculation.

Every game company has been doing this since the beginning why would Nintendo not do it when theyre the ones who started it?
