Despite Nintendo saying they would have a significant increase in Wii count at retailers this holiday season (and yes, I’m re-using the pun from the headline), it’s looking to be otherwise. Wii Fits sell out as soon as they hit the shelves, and Guitar Heros hardly have time to sit either. Gamestop CFO David Carlson says that the Wii is in “very good supply” at the moment but anticipates that will not be the case next month. I guess what he’s saying is buy now or pay later.

That’s odd. The Walmart near my house had about 15 Wiis the other day and probably 5 or 6 Wii Fits. I’ve been seeing Wiis everyone in Pittsburgh lately.
I work at frys and we have about 200 wii’s in stock at all times and get shipment of about 150 a week. We also get in wiifits atleast once a week.
I guess the guy at Gamestop can only speak for his company. Although it’s possible that demand may outstrip supply in the holiday rush.
