Wii shortage for the last of 2007

Well if you gamers are looking to buy a Wii sometime in the next few months of 2007, you might be disappointed. It seems there is a tight supply for the IC chips and PCBs, and it will be tough for it to be fix anytime in the next 5 months of 07.

Due to the tight supply of components such as IC chips and PCBs, Nintendo's plans to expand production of its Wii games console, originally set for June, have been delayed, according to Taiwan-based component makers.
