GCM: "As we near the start of the third year of the Wii, it is amazing that the console still garners as much attention and excitement as it does. Even in my small town, where buying an Xbox 360 or PS3 on their respective launch days was no sweat – the same stores still field constant streams of Wii calls, they still announce Wii shipments, and they still unlock doors to queues of rabid customers on Tuesday mornings.
And after three years, I cannot believe that Nintendo would still be limiting shipments to fabricate a perceived shortage – business practices like those typically only work for a few months before people begin to catch on (see: Beanie Babies).
No, I believe there still is an honest-to-goodness growing interest in Nintendo's casual gaming console – and every day, more kids, parents, and grandparents are intrigued by the interactive aspects of the Wii's motion-sensitive controls, by its affordable price-point, and by its freebie pack-in Wii Sports game."
