Oh I look at what is being said and I can't even begin to agree that 20k in the channel across Europe and NA is possible, like I said that's discontinued system numbers, not something that is selling 50k a week. You can jump through as many hoops as you like to get to whatever excuse you want to use, but it will not make sense.

What do you do about this question, which people raised often and you haven't adequately answered yet:

Retailers were reported to be disgruntled about the sales of the U before MK8 was released. The hypothesis is that retailers stopped backordering WiiU's because they were already having trouble evacuating their current stock and were possibly losing money.

Do you still want to hold on to the that it is a number only reserved for discontinued systems, or are you willing to consider this other case, where the system was selling so poorly before MK8 that retailers will be slow to renew the backorder stream?

We did not hear about mass shortages (just MK bundle shortages which where sent out that Q) it's just a pipe dream and I'm not even going to entertain it anymore. Adjustments will eventually happen because 20k on shelves outside of Japan is not logical in this situation.
