No, because it would include any stock that was in stores.

but wasn't MS facing shortages?if so there can't be 500,000 in stock and sold to the customers on top of the shipments

You realize that there would have been plenty of stock in the EU after MS's dissapointing Christmas there, stock that would have quickly disapated after a successful price cut in the region?

I wouldn't really call it a successful price cut, it boosted sales across Europe by around 13k first week, and then second week which coincided with Easter it increased by around 4k more than PS3, and 3k less than Wii. Then it started heading back down towards where it started. GT5:P gave PS3 a bigger increase than the 360 got from the price drop. From the price cut and over Easter until the end of the quarter Microsoft sold around 130k 360s in Europe. I really wouldn't consider that plenty of stock, it's just not needed in Europe.

 hmm strange graph..nintendo has lower sales for all consoles
