Nice shipment. HD twins will ship 3,5-4 times the number of Wiis for Jan-March quarter.

Altrough 600k on the shelves seem a bit low.

On shelves and in warehouses/boats, while selling approx 150k per Week WW...

Probably needs adjusting down like 200-300k, much less than what the Wii needed/needs.


disagree

600k is fine

the 360 isnt a global product like the Wii and PS3... the 360 could easily survive with half or less of the "in transit - in stores" of the other two consoles.

Denial is strong in you... Of course the 360 is a "global product" just like "the other consoles".

MS has the same distribution paths as any of the "other companies" so they operate on the same principles. MS as a software company, however, does not have the large shipping logistics Sony, for example, has. There is absolutely no way that barelyy three weeks of supply was in transient past Xmas (The Media group, Europe's largest chain, has/had around 150k units alone in transient storage - no Kowenicki, I am not going to tell you why I know this). I highly doubt the rest of the corporate world lived on 400k units. I am sure once Sony shows its numbers, you will gladly announce that Sony overshipped with 1.5m units in transient storage. If it makes you happy ,we all will agree with you.
