And I wasn't saying that, however if the Netherlands is over or under supplied Sony will distribute more or less units to the Netherlands (as retailers order fewer or more units), that probably means other EU markets like Germany, Italy, Belgium, Spain, France, etc may get more or less units.

Like I said, all you have to go by is that local store near you. The lead is 8 million and Sony stuffed the channel.

Microsoft's claims back then regarded Microsoft's sales to retailers.

In hindsight it's clear they underestimated their competitor as the gap was really only 6.7 million worldwide.
