Even if shipped doesn't mean into the hands of the consumer it's still something to go by, and publishers are going to use those numbers to determine where to release their games. By producing strong shipped numbers Nintendo is addressing the concerns of third party publishers that its platform isn't a viable one. |
This is wrong....3rd pary publishers would logically look at sellthrough numbers since it represents the true install base they are selling to. Nobody is buying software for Wiis, 360s, or PS3s sitting in warehouses.
