6.5 is probably over 600% too high. Even if they had 6.5 to sell, which they wont, they wouldnt push their entire stock the first week. A more realistic first week prediction would be between 600k to 1.5 mil.
It seems like you are thinking there will be no supply problems at all. When a console launches, deman always far exceeds supply. Both the x1 and ps4s sales for the first 3 to 6 months will be based pretty much enitrely on how much consoles they can make, not how many people want them. If you are predicting the x1 launch to be 1/6th of the ps4 launch, you are going to be wrong.
