So, House was banging on about how supply would be tight this holiday.

Does this mean that they didnt sell as well as they expected this holiday and thus supply was actually fine or it is tight supply and shipments are similar to sold through?

Either way, I cant see how the shipments can be more than 20m for the next report and nowhere near the 24.5m the Wii had by March.

IIRC the Wii was also supply constrained the whole first year so it could have moved even more in its first year.

True, it was supply constrained for a long time and certainly for the first 2 or 3 holiday periods.

His focus seemed to be on Europe, so that could mean the US supply exceeded or met demand without issue.
