Get real dude. Wii still has 3.79 mil to go in 3 weeks.

Wii is currently selling at ~600k Ww. That means at a rate of 2.400.000+ units every month at it's current rate. That is well above the 1.8 mil they were creating every month. So yes, there is a stockpile.

But even if Nintendo managed to sell 1 mil 1 week for 3 months in a row (Which i highly doubt is possible) it wouldn't reach that 20 million mark of yours so my answer is no.

Not managable.

From looking at people's expectations this week, they expect around 1 million Wii's in NA and 500k in Europe plus 100k in Japan minimum. Most likely Europe could get around 750k if NA gets 1 million.

 And EU is not that bad sold out like the U.S. is. And I doubt it. This sale goes by sunday, so it won't be included in next comming numbers. And if they drop futher (we allready had 25% drop week to week) I say, they just stockpiled the last weeks, shipped some by airplane, and thats it. That would leave a hole after the number for week ending 22. A big hole. 

It won't reach 20 million. It could easily. I say no problem with 25 million either. But if there isn't enough supply, there isn't enough supply. End of storry.
