The San Jose Mercury News called Nintendo's Wii "The Elusive White Whale of Holiday Gifts." Since launching the Wii in 2006, Nintendo has ramped production from one million units a month to 1.8 million per month yet demand continues to exceed supply as we enter the 2007 holiday season. The Wii is popular because its $250 retail price for the console is the lowest of the three most popular consoles ( Microsoft XBox and the Sony Playstation are the other two popular games) and the games are more "family friendly' than the typical "shoot-em up" games of its competitors. The Wii also has two unique features: Built-in Wi-Fi access, supported by an online gaming service  Wii's "intuitive, wireless, motion-sensitive game controller" Nintendo Wii Some retailers limit buyers to a maximum of three Wii consoles per month to limit customers reselling them.  Amazon.com allows sellers to  resell Wii consoles and accessories here where the cheapest is currently more than twice the list price! Consider an alternative.  You may be able to buy the more expensive Microsoft XBox 360 and the Sony Playstation 3 new in the box for less than the resellers are asking for the Wii.
