@Just_Ben, I agree that predicting 0.8 Million / month for "holiday supply stock keeping" is a little bit too much.
If August # is still 170K / week, then the possibilities (that I can think of) : A. Wii are not sold out anymore, so it is not a matter of supply, but a matter of demand. B. Europe's # are higher than NA. C. Production didn't reach 2.4 Million yet in August D. Nintendo are super cautious and really set aside 0.8 Million / month Wii unit for Nov & Dec sales (which mean it is possible for Wii to break PS2 record of 2.69 million in December, as long as the demand is there).
