So, basicaly there are still XBox Ones in the market that were shipped before the end of March??

That is incredible!

Microsoft shipped at least 5.8mi by the end of June and 7 week later it barely reachs the Q1 shippments (20 weeks)?


Wouldn't those shipments (as it's the end of June) include shipments of the Kinectless SKU? Depending on how many Kinect-bundled units still didn't sell by the launch of the Kinectless Xbox One, it would probably lead to some bloated shipment numbers, as even stores that didn't sell all, or most of their 499$ Xbox Ones will have still stocked up on the cheaper 399$ version. The usual 'Store only restocks on shipment when they've sold through existing inventory' doesn't apply as much there.

If that was the case, those retailers would be burning down the stock with massive promotions. Just like what we saw in late March with the Titanfall bundle.

May be this is happening in Europe with no effect even enouth to push above the moribund WiiU.
