If the NewsFactor Network is to be believed, Nintendo’s plans to ship 1 million Wii consoles has changed, with no further detail given.
Scouring Nintendo’s US website found no confirmation of this statement, but if it’s true, the question is… why? Of course we resisted the temptation to ask… Wii? Or did we.
Anywii… I digress. Could the reason be that Nintendo wants to redesign the strap to make it much stronger and sturdier so it doesn’t easily slip off people’s wrists and smashing into their televisions? Or have global sales been so significantly good, as they have indeed been, that stocks are being redirected elsewhere in the world?
Perhaps the real reason is the fact that the FCC in the US has given the Wii-mote an FCC code that says ‘FCC ID: POO-WC45’. You can see pictures at The Inquirer. If that was supposed to be a joke, I suppose it is funny… but very juvenile. Wii, Poo, water closets… it’s all werry, werry siiwii, as the hunter that likes to chase Bugs Bunny likes to say.
The real reasons will no doubt be flushed out soon enough, as will the veracity of NewsFactor Network’s claims. But for now, if you haven’t already got your hands on a Wii in the US, you might just have to wait until 2007.
