That may be true only if the numbers on the page are totally accurate...the Wii can be overtracked (in november it was )easily.In Europe and Japan there was stock ,and is,stock on the shops...so numbers could be higher than production ones but so much remains to be seen.In march we will have a clearer picture.

I understand what you are trying to say but the margins here aren't big enough to make a difference even if they swing wildly low.

@fastrabbit,

I agree completely, stores stockpiling just makes sense. Here is a quote of mine from 4 months ago:

"It makes a lot of sense for the stores themselves to stockpile. Any reason you can get over the competition for customers to be in your store shopping for gifts is very very good. To these stores a Wii sold now is not nearly as valuable as a Wii sold in Nov/Dec. "

Now, aside from the fact that I have considered it, it doesn't change the fact that there was stockpiling. I'm not really concerned with who did the stockpiling, just that there was stockpiling.

 

PS - Great responces so far, this thread turned out pretty good considering some of the past stockpiling threads and where they went....
