I agree that they don't need oprah to be succesful, but Oprah would certainly help speed things up.
Even if Nintendo doesn't increase their monthly production, they will still benefit from maintaining the "sold out" status for at least another year (and prolonging the media coverage of their "sold out" status).
Personally I don't see Nintendo increase their monthly production again from 1.8 M/month, since : - Nintendo is a conservative company. - Wii are not sold out in Japan - Wii are also not sold out in Europe - 1.8 M/month is a very big amount already.
