But if pre-orders are sold out won't that mean none extra in stock?

No, not necessarily.

When I was at Best Buy (I was around for the launches of PS4/XBone/WiiU/3DS/Vita) we always had more units than we had preorders. Because, we wanted people in the store, and we REALLY wanted the kind of people who would wait in line for 6+ hours to buy a system to do that. Because those customers are the ones that are likely going to pick up a few games and accessories.

Honestly, I think stores would much rather not sell video game systems online, but it's just a matter of not becoming obsolete.

That's what I am banking on ^^
