Could well be would explain why the DS still sells out as well if a shop only gets 2 a week. That has been out longer and still they can't supply demand.

DS sales are sick as f**k

Its simple business though :p make something for as cheap as you can and sell for as high as you can.

Thing with Nintendo, I would have thought that they are seeing a profit on every unit sold, not much changed from the GC apart from the $5 dollar technology in the remote.

The Nintendo sales here might make an impact on the next generation of machines they have showed you do not need masses of power graphics hardisk or anything. You just need games people will play.

The DS sales are huge but still after 2years i would have though they could make enough for demand. unless they are holding back stock so you get people think "Ohh i better buy one now they are in stock". It worked with me :) Everything in the Wii is cheap i would love to see the profit on one.

Personally I think if Nintendo are smart, they will flood the market at Christmas with this break in supply being just enough to maintain the price point static, i.e. no crimbo discounts.
