Proved once again.. another 12 year old boy who doesn't understand that when OEMs talk about sales, they talk about sales to (re-)distributors, not end users. The numbers given are perfectly in line with what was happening at that time point.
What _is_ actually interesting is the fact that they were only able to ship 200000 units per week into the regions, that is only around 10-15% more than were actually sold. We could tentatively conclude that Sony has some problems with channel-stuffing for Xmas and distributors seem to be hesitant ordering larger quantities. What happens if a company has not enough channel-stuffing capacity we can see with Nintendo's Wii: Some areas are constantly near out of stock while other areas are constantly overstocked.. simply not enough product available to channel stuff evenly.
