Yeah I hope they will release this this fall as a bundle with Natal. It wouldn't make sense to cut the delivery of "old" 360s a month before the slim. Instead they should decrease the shipments continuesly.

BTW According to VGC there were 1.2 million consoles in stores and warehouses, which is still quite a number. And the Splinter Cell Conviction bundle might even increase this number a little bit. But I think a new Xbox 360 might be released in 5 or 6 months, so it makes sense to reduce them.

Still rumors though.

The big question is: Will the EDD make 1 billion profit this year. That would be a HUGE success.

Its shipped and seems about right to me logically.

Its funny how the fiscal numbers come in and they are always within reason of shipped vs sold, yet so many people still cry foul that vgc can't possibly be accurate, blah blah.

As always, great job vgc team.

Microsoft is very very good in not overshipping/undershipping.

Dude you're just making a claim like that without any source, for all we know the slim might be coming in Sept or so, it would be way too early to clear out stock right now.

As I said in the other thread, the difference between VGC numbers and MS shipped numbers is about 1 mil. Normal warehouse stock, when there isn't any shortages, should be about 1.5-2 million.That means that either

- MS overshipped last quarter

- VGC overtracked 360 in Others because we know it's pretty spot on for NA and JP due to comparing with other public trackers

- A combination of both

If adjustments are needed, I'm sure ioi will do so in given time.

Shipped of course. Fiscal reports are based on shipped numbers, always.

That's not 100% true:

Microsoft's Fiscal Year 2006-07


Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 FY LTD

PS2 3.4 6.7 2.4 2.7 15.2 25.2

360 1.0 4.4 0.5 0.7 6.6 11.6

PS3 - 1.7 1.8 0.7 4.2 4.2

WII - 3.1 2.7 3.4 9.2 9.2

That's a clear case of overshipping in Q2

Thats was because MS was flooding the canals to get to the 10 million mark first.............stupid really

vgc always does a brilliant job with what data they have, hence this is  just speculation and not me crying foul

And it was Christmas .....

That or ppl just complain too much.

Anyway, congrats MS. Much better results than the original xbox, though maybe next time don't rush a console to market just for market share.
