If anyone thinks its in for a good Holiday they will be sorely disappointed.

Not because it doesn't have the potential (it does) but retailers are having their shipments collecting dust. It appears Wii U is undertracked by at least 200k. Nintendo will most likely ship 500k this quarter (maybe less)... Nintendo is most likely scaling production down and retailers will probably be conservative with their orders. If Wii U starts selling it will most likely be met with supply issues which will hinder its "good holiday" people would like to see.

2 notable posters are expecting Nintendo to sell through 10mil by years end and it's those posters (and the ones who agree or seem to think Nintendo can do it) that I'm saying are going to be disappointed. If you are expecting around 8mil sold through and you consider that "a good holiday" then sure. I can agree those numbers are possible but I don't think that's really good.
