Nintendo Deliberately Pissing Customers Off. Where is My Wii?

I should be able to walk into a store right now and purchase a Wii, but thanks to Nintendo’s uncanny ability to piss me along with all the other potential buyers off, I can’t. I know I could buy a bundle online. I also know if I digg deep enough I could acquire one. I refuse to try too hard though. Do you know why? I shouldn’t have to! After a console has been out for more than a year, I should be able to walk into a store and buy one. Nintendo is intentionally creating a scarcity for the product and at this point, it just doesn’t make any sense.
I’ve decided that if a Wii isn’t at the next GameStop store I stop at, I’m forgoing buying the system altogether. If Nintendo doesn’t want my money, I’ll it into some electric underwear, or perhaps some gnomes for my garden.

I had the same idea today, “I should be able to walk into my local Funcoland and buy a Wii.” But no. No store can hold them it seems for more than a minute!!!
It’d be great if they were easier to make but aparently they need to sacrafice a virgin everytime they make a Wii. And Nintendo can’t keep hiding the bodies. So that’s why. The only place you can get a Wii is from Bob Ripyouoff on frickin eBay!!!
