No, that's still shipped, not sold. Companies don't mention sold to consumers in their quarterly reports.
The 4.33M MGS numbers also includes the small amounts of other MGS games sold during that time such as the JP seperate MGOnline and the MG compilation that came out too.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
