Description The strain on Wii game manufacturing plants forced Midway games' delays and, in turn, reduced their expected revenue.
"The Wii has been a victim of its own success... The demand for Wii [game] product has put a pretty big strain on Nintendo's production capacity, and that has in turn, for us, turned into longer lead times for some of our Wii products," Midway VP of publishing Miguel Iribarren explained.
Iribarren added: "And that, during the holidays -- given products coming out in a short timeframe -- has resulted, for us, in reduced ability to get product to shelves... I think for front-line releases that's largely solved, but it's a bigger issue for re-orders right now."
