Nintendo Leaving Money On the Table
More than a year after the Nintendo Wii hit the market (did any ever actually ‘hit the shelves’?), there is only greater demand for the gaming console. As with everything on the internets, some theorize this is some conspiracy or marketing scam. Well, I’ve argued all along that it wouldn’t be a very good one. Seems that some analysts agree, estimating that the Big N of Japan is losing as much as $1.3 Billion in potential profits in lost sales. The only shining cloud is the general consensus that Nintendo refuses to sell loss leaders and still makes profit on every console, game, and accessory they sell.
