This is an interesting article that states that Wii's have been undersupplied to the US to protect Nintendo against declining profits.The USD has been regaining some of its strength vs. the EURO and JPY. The JPY has also depreciated against the Euro, further reducing Nintendo's profits. (historical FX data from OANDA)

A year ago, a dollar bought over 120 yen, and now it only buys 100. I wonder if the Canadian loony is strong against the yen, or just the dollar.
