Those are worldwide shipped numbers until 30 June 2009. Probably some of those went to the European launch. Here is the original document.

The game didn't come out til July in Europe.

It was released on 10 July in Europe and they had to send the copies so they would arrive on time for the release. I'm not saying that this happened, I'm saying it's a possible explanation.

I've never heard of things like this happening except for on one occasion, and I think that was when Wii Fit launched and there were  shortages.

 

I highly doubt that Sega had no copies reserved for their European launch, which occured on July 10th. These 150k copies were for America only. In The Conduit's first 9 days I believe, NPD had sales at 72,000, 48% of the first shipment.

 

Now, the stock is probably close to depleted for the game. I'm just guessing here, but:

First 10 days - 51% of shipment (1-10)

Next 10 days- 22% of shipment (11-20)

Next 10 days- 10% of shipment (21-30)
