While the supposed Wii Fit shortages are nothing compared to the now infamous Wii shortages we’ve seen, at least one of those ever-insightful analysts now claims to deduced the cause of them, and he’s laying the blame squarely on the big N. According to Wedbush Morgan Securities’ Michael Pachter, Nintendo has shipped some 2 million Wii Fit units to Europe, while reserving a mere 500,000 for North America, which he surmises can only mean that Nintendo is deliberately redirecting ‘em in order to take advantage of the strong Euro. Pachter seems to think that Nintendo will still make out alright in the end, however, saying that, “they know that Americans will be just as fat a few months from now,” when it’ll have more units available.

If you were looking to snag a Dash Express, perhaps saving a Benjamin could be the excuse you’re looking for. We don’t know if it’s because these things aren’t selling well or if there was just some kind of pricing error, but the Dash Express — was originally set to debut at $600, but then dropped to $400 at release — is now on Amazon for $300. (And yes, it’s still going for $400 on Dash’s own site.)
