Hello? Every gaming manufacturer does this. 360 has shipped about 2 million more consoles than they have actually sold. They literally have 2 million in the supply chain right now, on boats, in stores, or in transport. I would not be surprised by this at all. Numbers picked up a little in Japan, if they keep making some descent games they could bump up to 150k-200k a month. March will probably be a little bigger in the US with all the new releases. Plus Europe is selling out. It's likely they sell out the entire launch stock of 1 million + units. So in terms of actually sold. I'm seeing 3.5 million by the end of March.
