Nintendo Wii shortages for Christmas 2008 expected by GameStop
GameStop retail company CEO Dan DeMatteo said in an interview that more Nintendo Wii shortages are expected for Christmas 2008. To quote him: “I’ve never seen this type of demand before. I know they’re making more [Wii's], but we’re still short like everybody else. I think we’ll have a continued shortage this Christmas.”
When Mr. DeMatteo was asked when he does expect Wiis to be readily available at retail, he said: “I don’t see a near-term end in sight for Wii shortages, not unless they really ramp up supply. I think they’ve ramped it up 20 percent or so, but Nintendo is fairly cautious by nature. They ramped it up 20 percent and it’s still evaporating. ”
