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. |
The shipments are definitely not more than 20m. They said they were supply constrained in Europe, so it is reasonable to assume that they don't have over 1.5m consoles sitting on shelves after the holiday rush.
Still, about 6 - 6.5m shipped in this past quarter is a very good number, and basically we get an average of 1.4m shipped monthly since launch, which I consider a success.
