You may have noticed that many retailers have been forcing customers to buy the Nintendo Wii in one gigantic bundle with tons of games and accessories. Many customers are upset because they don't want to buy all the games that come with it, but they do it anyway because its so hard to find the Nintendo Wii.

That's not the reason why Nintendo is upset. They believe that the bundles are masking the true price of the Nintendo Wii which is actually cheaper than the Xbox 360 and PS3. People are losing sight of the fact that the Nintendo Wii is supposed to be the most affordable console despite it not being true right now.

 
 

The Nintendo Wii has been a huge hit in the US, but many people don't realize it's been even a BIGGER hit in the UK. Prices for the Nintendo Wii has been hovering at $650 US which is much more than the prices in the US. Just last week Nintendo sold 100,000 units over there.

Nintendo Wii has taken UK by storm and has now just passed the Xbox 360 which had entire year head start. That's pretty amazing for a console. People are still begging for a Nintendo Wii, but it's a little too late. Lets hope Nintendo ships out more so at least we can get one with our Christmas cash!

 
 

It looks like Nintendo is stopping their Nintendo Wii ads in the UK because the ads end up just taunting prospective buyers. The problem is that you can't find the Nintendo Wii anywhere unless you pay more than $700 dollars for one on eBay. Nintendo feels guilty so they will stop all Nintendo Wii ads for the time being until stock picks up after Christmas.

Nintendo is trying their best to pump out Nintendo Wiis but it just can't keep up with the crazy demand. Nintendo Wii is definitely something special. What other company do you know is stopping their advertisement just because they didn't want to upset their customers due to no stock?

 
 

It looks like Nintendo Wii is finally going to give Europeans Nintendo owners some special goodies. Nintendo now has a Club Nintendo for Europe which means Nintendo fans will receive Star points for every Nintendo product they purchase. These Star points can be redeemed for great rewards.

This is a great way to reward the really big Nintendo fans and will also increase sales. There is nothing like nagging your mother because your only a few Star points away from a reward. If you're in Europe, be sure to enroll in Club Nintendo and take advantage of the cool goodies. We know the Japanese are getting amazing rewards already.

 
 

The Wii Fit has been released in Japan and it's causing huge lines to form outside of electronics stores. This is in addition to the more than 300,000 preorders the Wii received. The Wii Fit is also causing people to start buying Nintendo Wiis as sales are soaring after a few months of behind PS3.

The Wii Fit is turning the Wii into a complete exercise machine which his new to the video game industry (consoles at least). The Wii Fit is a platform which will work your feet and legs. This complements the Wii remote nicely as they focus on the upper body.

The real question is how well Wii Fit will sell in the states. It is coming out soon in the US and should be extremely popular.

 
 

Many professional analysts now believe that Nintendo Wii stock levels won't be normal until April. Normal means that you can walk in any retail store and you'll be able to pick up a Nintendo Wii. The current situation is so terrible that you'd have to live at a retail store to get one.

Nintendo is currently cranking out 1.8 million Wiis a month for the worldwide market. Nintendo is estimating that they will sell 1.7 million Wiis for December which is quite a nice number which is totally beating out the Xbox 360 and PS3 despite there being no supply. Congrats Nintendo, but please make some more Wiis faster!

 
 

The holiday Thanksgiving period just passed which meant that many people probably were able to find the Nintendo Wii for Sale. This was confirmed when Nintendo just announced they sold 350K units in the past week alone. The only problem is that the 350K sold in literally hours, which means that there are still many people who did not find the Nintendo Wii for sale.

If this is Nintendo's best effort in trying to get more Nintendo Wiis out in the wild, then there is a huge problem. We are already seeing this on eBay where prices for Nintendo Wii for sale have risen over $200 in the past couple of week. We're talking an increase from $300 to $500.

Looking at the way Thanksgiving went, the prices will just keep going up because there is just not limit to the demand. This is especially true in the UK where you have to pay more than $650 US to even buy a basic bundle. We hope the US doesn't get to that, but who knows, people want to find the Nintendo Wii for sale!

 
 

A really key feature that has always been missing from the Nintendo Wii is the ability to play DVD movies. Most people already have a DVD player, but it would be a nice bonus if you're already paying over $250. However, Nintendo did promise to produce DVD playing Wiis these holidays. However, they have now turned their backs to it.

They are now saying that they will need to wait to next year. One reason is that they believe it will slow down the production of new Nintendo Wiis which is a big problem because there such a high demand for the WIi already. I guess since the Wii is already selling like hotcakes, there is no reason to push the DVD player just yet.  Another reason they mentioned is that the rolyaloties for DVD playing features are still too high for Nintendo.

It's unfortunate we don't have this feature, but they are promising next year. Maybe the DVD feature will coincide with a price cut. We'll just have to see.

 
 

It seems that many developers are apprehensive about these holidays for the Nintendo Wii. We all know that the Nintendo Wii is selling really well, but does that translate into Wii owners buying tons of games? That's the questions Julien Merceron is asking.

He thinks that this holiday season will be the true test to whether Nintendo Wii will be the next HUGE console. Game developers spend an enormous amount of time and energy to develop games. This is especially true for really large and epic games.

The problem might be that the casual market may just end up buying the casual games and not for the more in depth games. The answer is unclear, so we'll just have to see how these holidays turn out. Maybe it will make or break Nintendo.
