		<description>silly controller?  i think not.  the controller is state of the art and even the PS3 tried to incorporate it in an unsuccessful way.  

the reason for the shortages?  My theory is that Nintendo is focusing on keeping their loyal owners of a wii, happy.  My Wii was defective and I called up the support line and they didn&#039;t give me any sort of a hard time.  They said that they will ship it and when I receive it in 2-3 days, to juts place the defective unit in the same box.  place the sticker that was included inside the box on the outside and free shipping was included.  I had my new unit in less than 2 days.

If they were focusing on just getting units into stores and in turn neglect their already base of customers, i believe that this article above would be focusing on Nintendo&#039;s lack of support.  So basically its a loose loose scenario when it comes to critical perspectives like yourselves to try and just hype hit-counts for your website.

Wii is a great system.  If you by chance get that 1percent with a defect, rest assured that Nintendo is keeping some replacements at base for you.  I think Nintendo is doing the right thing by keeping their existing customers happy.  Because in the future console wars, that phone call to customer service could make or break a future purchase for Nintendo.
