For all those that haven't got one yet, here's hope. A few days ago I sent an email to Nintendo asking why it was impossible to get a wii in shops and online in UK, yet if I lived in any other country I would be able to get them no problem. I have just had an e-mail back, here it is:
Dear Customer, thank you for your e-mail.
Nintendo is working at its maximum production level to supply as many Wii hardware units as possible during the busy Christmas period.
The demand for Wii hardware globally has been unprecedented and higher than Nintendo could ever have anticipated. Nintendo are now in a position in which seasonality demand trends are being broken, therefore the demand for Wii hardware is constant throughout the whole year globally. Due to this phenomenon it is possible that the demand for Wii hardware may outstrip supply.
As an indicator of the commitment to ensure stock reaches the market to meet demand, Nintendo have continually been increasing its annual Wii hardware shipment forecasts throughout the year. For the fiscal year beginning 1st April 2007 and ending 31st March 2008 Nintendo have raised their annual shipment forecast for Wii hardware by a total of 3.5 million units globally, Nintendo now plans to ship 17.5 million Wii units globally, versus the 14 million units initially planned in April 2007.
Production levels for Wii hardware are also at the highest they have ever been, with a maximum production capability of 1.8 million units globally per month.
We are doing everything possible to supply continued levels of stock and meet demand as quickly as possible. Unfortunately we do not have any information on delivery dates or which stores will get the bulk of these deliveries, however larger store chains in towns and cities will receive the most.
Kind regards,
Your Nintendo Team0 -
