    Gamestop: Nintendo Holding Back Wiis

    Still having a hard time finding a Wii? Blame Nintendo. Gamasutra reports that Gamestop COO Dan Matteo touched on Wii scarcity in a recent investor conference call:

    I think [Nintendo] intentionally dried up supply because they made their numbers for the year. The new year starts April 1, and I think we're going to see supply flowing.

    Matteo adds that the company is "pleased" with upcoming allocations of Wii and Nintendo DS supply, hopefully indicating that party game lovers as yet unable to secure a console will have a better chance starting in April.

    Matteo and crew also touched on the current state of Sony hardware, calling the PLAYSTATION 3 Euro launch "very good" and speculating on a PlayStation 2 price drop. My take on the latter? Don't hold your breath!
