@robjoh They're roughly estimating 2.5 million in extra stock here at vgcharts (10.4 million shipped/7.9 million sold at the end of 2006). 2.5 million is a LOT of stock. That's 25% of all Xbox 360s ever made. I somehow have trouble believeing that 1 out of ever 4 360s to ever roll off the assembly line is now sitting on a store shelf. Go around to each store and see if it looks like if they have 25% of their entire stock they ever sold sitting on their shelf... that would have to be true for every store around the world as an average.
