Nintendo pledges more Wii Fit stock to UK

[Wii Fanboy]

Last month's reassurances over UK shortages of Wii Fit did nothing! Far from "coming in all the time on a weekly basis," stock of the fitness title seems to have dwindled down to an all-time low, leaving an entire nation starved of Wii Fitness and the streets awash with angry stay-at-home mums and overturned cars. This week's UK charts tell the whole story -- Wii Fit sank from third spot to outside the Top 40, and to fifteenth in the Wii's own chart. That's below Game Party.

Anyway, this dramatic fall from grace has led to Nintendo having to make further reassurances about the situation, with the company promising that supplies will be replenished as quickly as possible. "There are pockets of stock shortages in areas of the UK", a Ninty spokesman remarked to GamesIndustry.biz. By "areas of the UK," we trust he means "the whole damn country."

Wow. Who cares? Do people actually live in the UK?

Oddly enough, some people do. Including 2 of the moderators of this site if you'd looked carefully. :P

Heheheh. *snap*

yeah, and another 60million-plus, so just a few.

Its about time they got some more wii fit over here. You couldn't find a copy within 2-3 days anywhere and they're hardly filling up shelves fast again. Considering the massive demand that there is for this, nintendo are taking a risk in not getting the stock out quick enough, before potential buyers forget about it.
