No, not in Americas Pre-Orders alone. In Worldwide pre-orders I think it will because Kinect will probably see at least 30% of its sales in EMEAA and Japan, maybe even 40% of its sales.

I beleive this because games like Black Ops, Halo Reach, and Modern Warfare 2 has Pre-orders of 500k with 10 weeks left and increased 70k per week. Okay those games are getting much closer to 2 million Pre-orders, but still.

I see Kinect selling very well, over a million consoles in each Americas and EMEAA region on week 1 alone. However I don't think it will pick up pre-orders. This is a game primarily for casual gamers, just like how Wii Party will sell over 10 million, but at best get 100k pre-orders. I think the same for Kinect, high sales, but low pre-orders. Not that a total of 1 million worldwide pre-orders isn't much.

I'm not even sure if it happened for any console or console addons. Usually the supply for launch is limited. Even if there is crazy demand for Kinect, it's unlikely to happen.

Well MS is planning to sell 5 mill by jan, so....

it doesn't mean it won't have supply issue for launch. 5 mil by Jan doesn't mean it has to have a 2mil week 1. December is always the best selling month of the year for video game industry.
