You build more demand for a product by deliberately manufacturing shortages and increasing the hype. If there's a news report that says "Wiis are going to be impossible to find this Christmas! Expect to be dissapointed!" chances are that a whole load of people are going rush around trying to find one even if they weren't even planning on buying one in the first place.
It was like a couple of years ago when Sony said that there was a huge shipment of PS2s trapped in the Suez Canal or something and that they might not get here in time for Christmas. Just strikes me as bullshit.
Toys R Us tends to put ours on sale on Saturday mornings, so best bet is to phone every Friday evening. I'm sure you'll get one!
