Thought the PS3 was the hardest console to score? Well, it is, but oddly, the early word is that the Wii is as well. We've heard a few stores with shockingly low Wii numbers. Gizmodo Japan reports that the Bic Camera in Tokyo's Shinjuku has only 100 consoles. When asked about the number of units ready for sale, a Bic Camera staffer's response was:

We got in 100 units. But that's more than we got for the PS3.

Well, no duh. Launch qualities are something like twenty times the PLAYSTATION 3. Giz Japan imagines that the low sale numbers are due to the majority of consoles being alotted for pre-reserves. Brian Ashcraft
