It is actually under 4 months (March 19 would be 4 months). I have my doubts Wii is at 6 million just yet. You are looking at 1.8 million in Japan (using Media Create), 1.75+.45+.25 (so far in March) for North America I think..Say it is 2.5 in all of the the Americas. 800,000 for Europe through December 31, 2006. 5.1 million is bare minimum. But Europe has not stopped getting shipments for 10 weeks..Throw in another 50k/week at least and you are at 5.6 million, which is almost identical to what the site had before it changed today. However, it is not inaccurate, I just think since the front page changes 1 time/7-10 days it is set up in anticipation of those sales, then adjusted as 'official' numbers come in. Nintendo said they were planning on shipping 6 million through the end of March. I do remember reading that a small increase in production began in February and a bigger one was starting in April...so I can see them beating their projection by a 300,000 to 600,000 units (40k-80k increased capacity/week x 7-8 weeks)
