Doesn't matter what George Harrison says. Forget about him. As hinted at a few weeks back, Nintendo are ramping up production of both the Wii and DS for the holiday season. Contained within the company's latest financial release is the news that while Nintendo had previously forecast global shipments of 14 million Wiis for the fiscal year, this has been revised upwards to 16.5 million. Same story with the DS: the original plan was to ship 22 million of them, but they're now looking at offloading 26 million. That's an extra 6.5 million Nintendo consoles hitting the market this fiscal year. No sold-out excuses now: if you can't get little Johnny a Wii for Christmas you'll have to fess up and tell him the truth. You cheap bastard.
