Happy Birthday Wii, You Succubus

    Happy Birthday Nintendo Wii, you succubus.

     

    How does Nintendo keep up with its ridiculously low supply of Nintendo Wii and Wii products and still have consumers foaming at the mouth to buy them? Are we but marionettes with no choice but to line up in front of a GameStop at 2:30am on Black Friday just because Nintendo's president Reggie Fils-Aime says we should?

     

    (That answer is obvious and a little frightening.)

     

    Fils-Aime confirmed that Nintendo will someday consider dropping the Wii's price, but with the sales being so high the publisher is in no hurry. So what Son-Friend just told us was that yes, hypothetically the price could be dropped but they are just too much of money mongers to care.

     

    Personally, I identify with making money. But why not give us at least more Nintendo Wiis to drop our money on so that I don't get frostbite on my tits next Friday? If Nintendo tell me that this is just natural supply and demand, I'll shoot my Super Nintendo. I feel manipulated.

     

    So here is a summary: Yes, the Nintendo Wii is still impossible to get your paws on. Yes, you'll still have to pay the same price. Yes, you're getting pwned this Christmas.
