Because it has only shipped 80k more than it sold, which is nigh impossible. It's normal for a console to have shipped 400-500k more than it sold, and in the Xbox Ones case it had an immense overship in Q1 so that number got higher than normal ( but I won't rule out the possibility of a slight XBO undertrack).

Also, I obviously reported you for insulting other users.

Normal yes. However Wii U is not a normal situation. The console is selling so bad do you think retailers would take so much excess stock upfront these days?

I reackon for Wii U it be close to 250K tops.

But the gap in shipped/sold is only 80k. And that doesn't even take in account that shipped consoles usually takes ~ 1 month to arrive at stores, which means that of those 6,68 million, perhaps only 6,64 million (and I'm being generous) had actually arrived to stores at that point in time.

Let's not forget that only 20k of those 80k are supposedly on shelves outside of Japan...lol. So Japan, where WiiU sells about 8-12k per week, has 60k on shelves but the rest of the world, where it sells around 40-50k per week, has only 20k on shelves (less than half a week)...
