Analyst on low US Wii Fit stock: Nintendo knows "Americans will still be fat in a few months"

If like many thousands of others in the US, you are still struggling to find a copy of Wii Fit on store shelves anywhere in your region, one analyst believes that it isn't because Nintendo couldn't ship enough to the country, but instead because they decided not to.

Wedbush Morgan's Michael Pachter reckons, reports BalanceBoardBlog.com, that a weak dollar and because Nintendo "know[s] that Americans will be just as fat a few months from now" when [it] will have more units available," means that it has nothing to worry about, as it earns higher profits elsewhere in the world.
