@Just_Ben, I doubt that demand will be met by May for the Wii. I haven't seen one in the "wild" around my parts since at least last year. Nintendo is putting the marketing machine behind Wii Fit and is going to be using that title and Wii Sports to attract casual or mainstream buyers. They already have print ads, online ads, and are already being featured on talk shows like GMA. Even if demand were to decrease a bit before May, Nintendo will be able to increase demand to at the least equal supply. I believe Wii supply in the U.S. will not catch up to demand until, at the earliest, the summer.
