Just back from a visit to my local GAME store. They had no new 360's at all! All Elites gone, all Arcades gone! There are no pre-owned ones either!

EDIT: Just checked their website too, 360's ALL SOLD OUT!

Guess it won't be long before the other shops are the same if not already.

I wonder now if that is it for the Elites and Arcades and they won't get anymore stock in?

If it is the same for all video game stores then i think these europe numbers are possibly wrong. With the release of the new 360 weeks away the next few weeks numbers in UK at least will be very low i imagine.

 

You have to consider MSFT stopped shipping these models the week before E3 or earlier....and its been 2 weeks since E3, these numbers are a week old so the stock youre seeing locally is a week behind these numbers.....doesnt mean they were sold out last week.

Id say a 15% increase makes sense if MSFT had adjusted shipping accordingly leading up to this announcment with stock being gone the week after.

If we see another 10% increase for next week, thatd be essentially 25% bump which would make sense to me.

Since Hyruken is from the UK, we may as well use the hardware numbers from that specific country, as they don't necessarily represent all of Others.

The X360 is up 28% this week there, which is pretty huge. I suppose it makes sense they're getting sold out now.
