Not so much retailer stockpiling just that many stores didn't get any Wiis last week and had a huge shipment (60-100 Wiis per store for most stores) on Sunday.

So the ~170k is pretty much stores selling what they had stockpiled from weeks before and a few getting new shipments but the last big boost before christmas came on Sunday. I only have early data at the moment but 600k+ does look likely as a heads up.

I had been calling my local Target for 2 weeks straight and they never got any shipments in. They got a big one in on Sunday (in the circular), but I got there 30 minutes before the opening and the line looked almost as large as Black Friday's line.  Nintendo finally got their shipments out.
