Recently looking at all three of their hardware sales reports, Nintendo stands at just under 35 million units, Xbox 360 over 25 million units and ps3 over 17 million units. Seeing how companies like to overexagerate all their sales it is highly unlikely nintendo is lying on this one as it is showing a number over 2.5 million less than vgchartz data.

Massive failure. That report is from ages ago. You could be reported for making up stuff or simply being ignorant.

"In its latest financial report, Nintendo reported it had sold just under 35 million Wiis since the console's late 2006 launch. That figure was for combined international sales in all territories including North America, Europe, and Asia--through September 30, 2008."

Just a quote from the article you linked. Fail.

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.

The Interweb is about overreaction, this is what makes it great!

...Imagine how boring the interweb would be if everyone thought logically?
