Apparently not everyone understands the mess that Sony created with their financial reports. Sony's TOTAL forecast is of 14.6 million PS3 shipped to retailers by the end of the fiscal year, not 16.5 million as people think.

I created a "setting the record straight" thread a while back which was going to be turned into a news item on vgchartz but it never ended up happening. Here is that thread:

My first and 3rd posts on that thread contain all the explanations and calculations behind this and other interesting numbers. The rest of the thread contains proof of some of the more controversial things that I found out...

 

Or they can just look at my signature.

 

Edit: Btw are these Pachters numbers or TheSource's numbers?

 

Wii - 23-25 million

360 - 18-20 million

PS3 - 12-14 million
