... and if there weren't any stockpiled, and they were instead sold as they were built, there would still be 16.5 million units sold by December, PLUS another 15M units of software if all those Wii buyers bought one game every other month. That's 750 MILLION (USD) of lost software sales.
You don't build an electronics device/appliance to not sell it.
