The evidence really is anecdotal unfortunately. When it comes to your neighborhood Wally World. They keep most of the consoles in the stockroom. So for the two you see there might be twenty in the back. Unlike some retailers that build mountains of consoles. Even then its hard to tell whether those mountains are being refreshed. Thats usually the mark of a good retailer they keep things from looking touched.

On a serious note the supplies seem to vary from region to region. I continually read on this site that people cannot find Wiis. Meanwhile wherever I go I can't help but find them on shelves. Meanwhile I have not seen a Halo 360 since launch, and I actually saw a 20 gig PS3 not too long ago. That actually shocked me, but the retailer is a gouger so I probably should not be shocked.

I live in central Ohio by the way. So its not like I live in some kind of twilight zone region. One of the more populous states in a diverse area. So you would think it to be a average indicator of the country as a whole. I wonder if sales really are regional.
