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.

 

Sorry, that's the consoles they didn't sell in October and early November. 1.8 million per month equals 420k per week, and now look at the graph, retailers sold less than 420k for each of the first 6 weeks of the quarter:

Now they're selling more then 420k per week for the latter 7 weeks of the quarter. In the end, it will still add up 3 x 1.8 million = 5.4 million in the quarter and thus -- no stockpile. Funny, that's what Gerge Harrison and Reggie have stated repeatedly, what a coincidence.



Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.
