Nintendo shipped under 4M Wiis in their 2nd fiscal quarter, which averages at around 1.3M units per month. Considering they were producing 1.8M Wiis in October I am pretty certain they haven't shipped everything they made in their second quarter. So every unit they stockpiled at September 30th should be added the the 5.4M units they say they'll be able to produce in the last 3 months of the year to get the shipment number for December 31th. And even if they announced no plans to increase production somewhere in October/early November doesn't mean they haven't done so afterwards. Personally I would be surprised if they don't end up shipping over 20M units at the end of the year, although they'll just miss selling 20M Wiis to consumers by that date.
