Well, they could give a theoretical maximum. SCEJA gives out combined PSP + PSV shipments.

 

PSV SHIPMENTS:

DEC-2011 THROUGH JUN-2012 - 2.2 MILLION

 

PSP+PSV COMBINED SHIPMENTS:

JUL-SEP 2012 - 1.6 MILLION

OCT-DEC 2012 - 2.7 MILLION

JAN-MAR 2013 - 1.3 MILLION

FY12 (Q2-Q4) - 5.6 MILLION

 

APR-JUN 2013 - 0.6 MILLION

JUL-SEP 2013 - 0.8 MILLION

OCT-DEC 2013 - 2.0 MILLION

JAN-MAR 2014 - 0.7 MILLION

FY13 - 4.1 MILLION

 

APR-JUN 2014 - 0.75 MILLION

JUL-SEP 2014 - 0.7 MILLION

OCT-DEC 2014 - 1.4 MILLION

JAN-MAR 2015 - 0.45 MILLION

FY14 - 3.3 MILLION

 

THEORETICAL MAXIMUM PSV SHIPMENTS:

 2.2 + 5.6 + 4.1 + 3.3 = 15.2 million

 

JUL-DEC 2012 JAPANESE PSP SELL-THROUGH: 455,945

2013 JAPANESE PSP SELL-THROUGH: 439,398

2014 JAPANESE PSP SELL-THROUGH: 97,724 (DISCONTINUED)

 

THEORETICAL MAXIMUM PSV SHIPMENTS (EXCLUDING JAPANESE PSP SELL-THROUGH):

14.207 million

 

 

And the vast amount of those numbers are PSV shipments since the PSP was pretty much dead in the USA / elsewhere throughout 2012 / 2013 / 2014,

Wiki doesn't allow theoretical or cotnrived data.  It has to come directly from a valid source.  Even if you can prove 100% the figures are correct, it's against policy to use it unless it's published by a reputable source.

I've had these battles with them before.  

So you can't use Sony Corp IR documents / official Sony PR statements?

 

2.2 million PSV Shipments source:

http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/20/vita-sales-august-2012/

 

FY12 (through March 2013) PSP + PSV Shipments source:

http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/IR/financial/fr/12q4_sonypre.pdf

(slide 14)

 

FY13 (through March 2014) PSP + PSV shipments source:

http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/IR/financial/fr/13q4_sonypre.pdf

(slide 25)

 

FY14 (through March 2015) PSP + PSV shipments source:

http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/IR/financial/fr/14q4_sonypre.pdf

(slide 25)

 

That's not only arbitrary, it's hypocritical.

See this article?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Boy

 

Those Virtual Boy sales figures are wrong.

And the alleged "source" is some ancient 3rd-rate article that just quoted hearsay.

 

But apparently they have no problem quoting that as "fact."

 

Wikipedia is such a joke.
