Forums - Website Topics - Errors in "Worldwide Hardware Shipments?"


1. Gameboy sold 118.69 million?
2. Gameboy Color is missing. I'm assuming Gameboy Color sales were added to Gameboy Sales. Isn't this wrong?
3. Playstation 3 sold 5.50 million?
4. Nintendo Wii sold 5.84 million?
5. CD-ROM isn't a video game system, it's a CD-ROM. Why is it there?
6. What is PC-FX? Why is it there?
7. What is PCE? Why is it there?
8. Where is Sega Master System? If Nintendo, CD-ROM, PCE, and PC-FX are there, and every other Sega console, except for the 32X (which also should be there), why isn't the Sega Master System there?
9. Sega Saturn sold 8.82 million?
10. Sega Dreamcast sold 9.13 million?
11. Playstation Portable sold 25.39 million?
12. At the bottom, it states "All figures are in millions of units sold. The first figure in each region (italics) shows the fiscal sales in the 6 months since the last reporting date and the second figure shows the LTD (life to date) sales." But, the title says "Worldwide Hardware Shipments." Are these numbers, numbers of consoles sold, or numbers of consoles shipped?

Can someone please explain all of this?


Around the Network

Those are SHIPPED numbers, not SOLD to consumers (just sold to retailers).
