its aaron greenberg that announces 360 numbers and yes we did hear from him actually. The NPD numbers for the 360 are very impressive when compared to the competition.... basically obliterating the competition again... they only look poor when we have all been looking at VGC numbers for the last 4 weeks. ...and you cant ship too many.... they arent sent unsolicited to retailers you know. Retailers MAY order too many and end up returning them if they are allowed, but it isnt channel stuffing. Channel stuffing doesnt really exist. |
And yet Sony has been accussed of Channel stuffing with the PS3 by every X360 fanboy every Nov-Dec since always.
But yeah, I agree, channel stuffing is BS and any overshipment is due to retailers over ordering from MS. Either that or the retailers and MS have some sort of agreement wherein MS can ship as many as possible to retailers to ensure availability of stocks of the X360 during the holiday season and the retailers have the option to return excess stocks after december or something.
