George Harrison of Nintendo has urged gamers to buy a Wii if they should see one as it would be foolish to assume that they can easily find one as the Holiday season approaches. Although the company has ramped up production, the Wii is expected to continue being in super high demand as the Holiday months draw in.
"There is no guarantee that we are not going to have 'out-of-stocks' this holiday season," George Harrison, senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications for Nintendo of America, said in an interview. "If you see one, buy it. Don't assume that you can come back later and find one."News Source: Reuters.com
Harrison added that the company was ramping up production, but that parts manufacturers were still trying to gauge how much they need to produce to keep up with demand.
"We're trying to figure out what's the reasonable monthly level, and as we've seen every time we ship product to the market, whether it's in Japan or here in the U.S. or in Europe, it sells out in a matter of days," Harrison said.
