The Wii is still sold out
On Monday, CNET reported on the Wii Fit shortage. But believe it or not, the actual Wii console is still in short supply, a year and a half after its release. If you’re like the people at CNET, you figured that after the holiday season the overwhelming demand for the Nintendo Wii would finally let up and you’d finally be able to buy the console easily online and in stores. However, the Wii is still essentially sold out online; CNET couldn’t find the console available to buy from major retailers like Amazon.com, Best Buy, and Circuit City. CNET did find a few places where you could buy a Wii, but they required you to buy an expensive bundle, like GameStop’s $400 bundle or Wal-Mart’s $500 bundle.
