Because sales for Nintendo means what they have sold to retailers. Which is what we call shipped.

proof?

Just wanted to give you the proof you wanted.

In that report from the first 6 months of Nintendo's FY2013, they moved a negative amount to Europe. Therefore Nintendo doesn't use "sold to consumers" numbers but "shipped to retailers", since Nintendo doesn't buy their own consoles from consumers.
