Maybe shortage is a bad term, but they haven't really been able to replenish stock as quickly after December, I mean they did sell more than 5m consoles in a month so they are slowly working it back up.

Sony has been claiming shortages since the start of the year so I would believe their claims.

Apparently, Nintendo started talking about it a week or two ago, but I have no source really, first I heard about it was during their press release.

And even if they sold well, it is one of the lower Wii's months.
