don't look at sold, but shipped...
20mil shipped as of 12/31
24mil+ shipped as of 3/31
1.8*3=5.4mil produced during the period
so if they only just hit target, then almost 1.4mil stockpiled (not quite as wiis produced last few days of april may not ship immediately)
i think they will hit a little above target and have around 1 mil in stock...they will then report that they exceeded target and will up production and sell even more in fy2008
this will please stockholders and they will already have a 1mil headstart on 2008 numbers
they will use up most/all stockpile in april/may for mk/wii fit
they especially want stock for wii fit, as it will sell to new consumers and they want people that wanna buy it for fitness after seeing it on oprah to have better shot at getting one
Bets:Missed by 420k I bet leo-j vg$500 that wii will sell 31 million by 7/31/08. Sorry, I don't think he has enough vg$ to make it with all of u that wish you could. Hit, with room to spare I bet kingofwale a 1-week ban that wii Americas ltd sales>360 Americas ltd sales as of the numbers for week ending 7/05/08 (using vgchartz homepage #s)
