No, I am not griping about spotty availability of systems or controllers. I think they have done a great job of getting product out while still keeping the hype high by making the system a bit hard to come by (and thus increase its desirability).
I am not talking about the price of the system. Yes, I would have liked a bit cheaper, but I don't think it is too bad for what you get.
And the lack of a second controller set, while annoying, is not really a "mistake." All systems today come with only one controller, and most people will know enough to buy a second (when they can find it).
Nintendo's only mistake is not allowing each Wii system owner to get one free VC game--even if it was an NES game. Can you imagine if Super Mario Bros. was included as a download? Or Duck Hunt? Or even the original DK? This would have gotten everyone hyped up about the VC potential. I will bet some people do not even realize that this is possible or haven't even hooked up their systems online. This would have ensured that everyone went online right away and gotten people into the fun of downloading VC games.
