Any pre-launch manufactured WiiU's have obviously been used up now or are being used up now. At this stage we are definitely seeing made (or shipped) then sold, and the allocations are very consistent week to week and region to region. Nintendo said before launch that they would ship 5.5mil by the end of March, so expecting them to be shipping more than 400k per week would be completely unrealistic. Demand may or may not be strong in Europe, but we can't tell from these numbers. All we know now is how many Nintendo is giving them. Anyone who has ever followed game sales should know that Europeans will buy at least a million WiiU's even if it's a flop. There is at least that much demand. Saying Europe can't afford it or is rejecting it at this stage is a joke.
