Im sorry, but there is no way in hell there are 1 million xbox one sitting on shelves while there are only about 80 k wii U sitting on shelves in 50 territories. BULL CRAP.

Yes, that's why the thread is here isn't it.

It's overtracked, but by 200k at most!

More like around a million to be honest with you. According to vgchartz xbox one has a million consoles on shelves yet retailers are ordering more xbox ones than Wii U. If Wii U was selling as well as you guys make it out to be, then how come the Wii U isn't being ordered by retailers as much?

... <_<

A million? Are you serious?? :S

Give or take 200k.

Yes, it's probably overtracked a little. I'd say

200k at most? 200k at a minimum. 260k on shelves is a month of stock. We often see consoles with 2 months or more of stock, especially those that move as slowly as WiiU.

Just for funsies here's a quick estimate on how much the WiiU stock should be in the rest of the world assuming that it's based solely on weekly sales in any given region:

If we take the weekly sales from the week of the sales estimate and the three weeks prior we see that the ratio between Japan sales and worldwide sales is pretty consistent.  

The average of the ratio for those three weeks is a ratio of .139 with a standard deviation of .013

Assuming all things equal then the shipments to consumer sales difference worldwide should be 1/.139 or 7.2 times that of the Japan stock 

If the Japan stock is 40k as some have mentioned here and that's accurate then the worldwide stock should be 288,000.  Therefore I'd guess the WiiU is about 200,000 overtracked.  

Edit: and of course I did the month of July by mistake instead of June.  At some point I'll have to check to see if the ratio for Japan to Worldwide sales in June was notably different from the ratio in July which I calculated here.  That said, given how little the ratio fluctuated in July I'm pretty comfortable with the 200,000 overtracked estimate being close regardless.

Double Edit:  Correct ratio from the four comparable weeks in June is 7.35 instead of 7.2 so I'm sticking with 200,000 overtracked.
