Nintendo retracts statement
Nintendo of America has alerted that its statement that read “Despite spot shortages in some locations, well more than a million Wii systems will be available in the United States by the end of the year” has been retracted and should be ignored. Oh well, so much for that a million Wiis by January.
So what does this mean? Well, Nintendo did not say why the statement should be disregarded, but a lot assume that Nintendo is experiencing more difficulty manufacturing the Wii than they are letting people know about. That or they would rather divert shipments to locations other than the US.
Perhaps they’re satisfied with the recent NPD figures already? Maybe they’ll only be able to ship close to a million but not well over a million? Well, Reggie did say that they like to stay humble. Perhaps they felt that “more than a million” is too arrogant and boastful.
Well, for now, all we can do is speculate, and wait for further word from Nintendo. We’ll update you as soon as news breaks.
