well for the VGC vets, it was a rule of thumb back in the day, that ioi seemed to abandon lately, that 1.5m was the typical amount on store shelves. That's what it was for ps360. And it should be just as much for XBO.
it can. i think its normal for consoles to have this much on shelfs after the holiday. proof of that will be how much sony shippes next quarter. if its more like the usual Q1 shipments then we know that that amount of stock is considered normal for that time period.
