I'm not sure it did as well as they expected though. I mean, we saw stock selling months and months afterwards.

Didnt the "Day One" Edition of the Xbox One lasted like....10 months after release?

They either produce too much of those SE, or they sell under expectations.

A little from column A and a bunch from column B

Perhaps the answer lies somewhere in between. Would it be the first time MS had overstocked in order to give good shipped numbers?

It would be funny if they made a "we've almost shipped x amount of X1s" again this year.

I don't think they dare do that again ... would they? They certainly won't have a timed price drop this year. Surely people will be wise to it ... won't they?
