 |  Nintendo, GameStop address Wii shortage The Nintendo Wii launched more than a year ago, and the system is still incredibly hard to find. This long after the system started shipping, people are still camping in front of stores as soon as they hear about new shipments. Friday morning, Nintendo of America's president and CEO, Reggie Fils-Aime, held a telephone press conference to address the continuing shortage of the Wii. http://crave.cnet.com/8301-1_105-983...?tag=cnetfd.mt |

| Probably doesn't help much when people are caught taking the Wiis from work and putting them for sale on Ebay: Quote:

 And to think, I actually have heard of Americans whining that they have to pay €175 for a Wii!  What it is like to try and get a Wii in America. Last edited by Shogun : 26th December 2007 at 08:02. | |
