Nintendo was smart and actually made TONS of wiis, not 10 like Sony decided to do with their PS3....
It's not stupid on Sony's part at all. If history is any indication, Sony is doing the right thing. Their first generation of PS2's were crappy and copped out after 1-2 years of use. Why market a bunch of buggy first-gen machines and have a plethora of dissatisfied customers soon afterwards? Honestly, I would not buy a new system the day of its release. Simply because they need about a year to sort out user-found bugs and upgrade the model itself.

However, if Nintendo is fully confident in their machine, then that's their marketing strategy. I guess we'll see if it works!
