"God's"

Technically Christianity is Polytheism as it has two deities. One of Creation and one of Evil. Three if you count Jesus. Five if you count the seperation of the Holy Spirit Holy Ghost and Holy Father.

Eh... no, not correct at all.

Holy crap...Chains' game is getting around.

To all of you, he's been working on this awhile now. As you can tell, and it looks absolutely fantastic. Hopefully it doesn't go under.

As far as I know, their team is working strong again. They were in a bit of trouble for a while, but they've recruited again, and all is well.

No, that's a fan-made game that is being released for the PC. For all of you naysayers, I assure you that this isn't vaporware, but it will probably be later in the year or next year before it's released.

[QUOTE="mattbbpl"][QUOTE="poopiVONpoo"]

there are obvious reasons for nintendo to keep the supply low

1. to make it seem like the wii is still the most desired console on market

2. to justify the comparitivly high price for this piece of low grade tech

3. to ensure steady sales - no flooding of the market

bottom line to max out profit - just like any smart buisness would do, take advantage of leading position

Sigh... You don't have to pretend when your product IS the most desired console on the market. It's by far the cheapest console on the market. Call me when Sony and/or MS regularly outsell the Wii. Then we can talk about not supplying enough products to the market.

no doubt that wii wii has sold a lot of units since it has been released- no doubt there are a lot of people who have a wii or are in varied degrees interested in getting one - i am one of them - the point is that nintendo would like to sell as many as possible and rightly so, there are many ways of keeping a good rolling and denying a wanting market it s supply is one of them

That might work at in the beginning, but over a year into the console's life? I don't think so. The trick would be to keep the customers baited enough for them to hold out on the Wiis without losing interest. By now, with media exposure, casual appeal, etc., that strategy is useless. The opportunity cost is too high for Nintendo NOT to increase production.

This is an issue of supply and demand.

[QUOTE="Strider212"]Supply cannot keep up with demand. Simple as that.FearTheRain

Supply will never keep up with demand if the supply is too low.

That's a silly statement. Why on earth would Nintendo withhold units to its customers? That defies logic. It is in Nintendo's best interest to sell as many units to as many customers as possible. While they make a nice profit off of consoles, a large userbase will ultimately yield more revenue than just the console alone. With each console sold, customers will buy games, of whose profits some goes to Nintendo.

If you think that Nintendo is creating an artificial demand, you apparently do not understand much about the market.

That console came out over a year ago and it's still sold out. I work at Best Buy and we only get them in once a month. About 15 or so and they sell out within a few days because no one else has any for sale.

Why is Nintendo intentionally bleeding the market dry?

No, it in fact offers four ways to control, which are then customizable.

That's still quite limited don't ya think. Oh well, at least they're using it. Lets hope it doesn't feel tacked on.

How is that limited? You can play with basic motion controls or you can play conventionally. Shouldn't all games offer that kind of customization? Besides, just because the Wii boasts motion controls doesn't mean that it is bound by it.
