Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime has admitted that there will not be enough supply of the popular Wii Fit peripheral to satisfy demand this holiday season.
"With Wii hardware, I think we've got a good shot at meeting demand during the holidays," Fils-Aime noted. "With Wii Fit, I know we'll fall short."
Fils-Aime also added that he thinks 3rd party Wii developers are not reaching the full potential of the console and are therefore not finding the success they hope for.
"I will be able to say our licensees 'get it' when their very best content is on our platform," he says. "And with very few exceptions today, that's not the case."
Any price cut on the Wii coming?
"At some point, it will be time to adjust the [price]," he replied, "but we're nowhere near that point now."
