Just out of curiousity, who would keep ordering those systems if they are only sitting on shelves?

Just out of curiosity, what did you respond when I asked you that about the wii u a few weeks back?

The thing is MS is over saturating the market with new bundles. Stores take them because its a difeerent bundle and others might buy it aside from the one the already have, so when they dont sell they stack up and then a new one comes and it is still diferent even if the game is the only thing that changes, so when they dont sell they stack them up again, right now we have titanfall, madden, kinect, no kinect, forza bundles. Thas five diferent bundles available, wich MS will add another next month I think with sunset overdrive. Stores have to have at least a couple of them at a time and with the hundreds of thousands of stores around the world with stock just sitting on shelves, thats why MS does not anounce numbers, and retailers keep orthering diferent bundles even if they have unsold stock.

Could you give any reason why before june, retailers would orther a lot of wii u's and just have them sitting on shelves, without any bundles, wich nintendo was any ofering much, just the supermario and luigy and zelda for a limited amont of time. There was not even a plain bundle and the 8gb model was discontiniud.

I don't know what you're talking about. What question from a couple weeks back?

And regarding the X1, did you see what comment I responded to? He said that there was no connection between shipping and sales. And regarding the bundles, no retailers do not have to take these, they have no obligation to take them at all and as Nintendo has proven last year, even things like negative shipments are possible. Right now saying that the X1 is over or undertracked worldwide is pure speculation.

And finally, it's not a lot to hold more stock than vgchartz is showing, it's just normal, what vgchartz is showing right now is virtually impossible.
